The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2011 by Jean-Claude Ellena for Hermès, Concentré de Pamplemousse Rose is a fragrance that captures the essence of a crisp morning. The opening notes of grapefruit are bright and invigorating, setting the tone with their freshness and zest. As it evolves, rose brings an unexpected touch of floral warmth, creating a delicate balance between citrus brightness and floral softness. Vetiver grounds the composition with its earthy, woody undertones, adding depth and complexity to this unisex scent.
Apply two sprays to your pulse points in the morning for a scent that lasts throughout the day. The grapefruit top note fades within an hour, but the rose and vetiver base notes continue to develop close to skin, providing a gentle warmth.

The perfumer of transparencyJean-Claude Ellena is widely regarded as the most intellectual perfumer of the modern era — a minimalist poet whose work redefined what fragrance could be.
“Cézanne's watercolours contain areas of wash that don't overlap. I proceed in a similar fashion.”
