Jean-Claude Ellena's Voyage d'Hermès, launched in 2010 by Hermès, is a composition that captures the essence of exploration and discovery. The fragrance opens with bright Amalfi lemon and cardamom, creating an invigorating freshness that feels like stepping into a sunlit morning. This citrus-spicy top note gives way to a heart of juniper berries and tea, which adds complexity and depth. The base notes of musk, cedar, and woody accords bring warmth and comfort, akin to the feeling of settling into an unexpected but welcoming new place.

Application Tips
Apply two sprays for an even distribution that allows the citrus-spicy notes to bloom first, gradually giving way to the warm base. This fragrance is best experienced close to skin, so layer it on lightly at first and let it build naturally throughout the day.
Jean-Claude Ellena
Founding perfumer · 104 fragrances · French
As a disciple and close friend of the legendary Edmond Roudnitska (creator of “Le Parfum de Thérèse”), Jean-Claude Ellena began his career with a minimalistic approach to perfumery. Since then, he has developed this approach into his own distinctive style, which is continually informed by his elegant and quiet way of being, and has been compared by his contemporaries to watercolor sketches and chamber music. Jean-Claude says that a perfume must be like “a soft caress; nothing must shock, nothing must shout”.Jean-Claude Ellena was born in Grasse into a family of perfumers. His training began at age 17, in the most prestigious laboratories – in Grasse, Paris, New York and Geneva – where he always saw himself as self-taught. Roudnitska’s minimalism never left him, however, and his compositions remain focused around a single ingredient, avoiding repetition.
