Hermès Calèche Eau de Toilette 100mL

Created by perfumer Guy Robert in 1961, Calèche was the first women’s fragrance from Hermès, taking its name from the elegant horse-drawn carriage that became one of the house’s enduring emblems. The Eau de Toilette has the poised brightness of classic French perfumery: sparkling aldehydes and citrus lift the opening before jasmine, rose and ylang-ylang give the fragrance a graceful floral sweep. What makes Calèche distinctive is the contrast beneath those polished florals. Iris brings a cool, refined texture while sandalwood, cedar, vetiver and oakmoss create the dry, mossy chypre trail that gives the scent its unmistakably tailored character. In Australia, it is especially suited to cooler days, evening wear and occasions where a more composed, elegant fragrance feels right.
