HERMES

The arrival in 2004 of Jean-Claude Ellena as exclusive fragrance designer for Hermès marked a decisive stage. As an artist of the olfactory emotions, and an aesthete of purification and of materials, he shares with Hermès an evidently complementary sense of calling and creativity. Jean-Claude Ellena has put his signature to new stages in an olfactory adventure as dedicated as it is free, and the precision of his designs for Hermès corresponds with our passions and respect for heritage.
