Jean-Claude Ellena is without doubt one of the most renowned and talented perfumers of his generation. Born in Grasse and the son of a perfumer, he first learnt about the art of perfume in the south of France before studying at Givaudan. Before becoming Hermés' exclusive in-house perfumer in 2004, Jean-Claude Ellena created fragrances for various brands, including L'Artisan Parfumeur. An explosion of warm, enveloping notes. Quite simply addictive. A heady, memorable ode to a highly sought-after note of oriental perfumes. Eccentric oriental with notes of leather and amber.
