Hermès has announced the launch of its new perfume, Equipage Géranium. Created by Jean-Claude Ellena, taking a thread from Hermès heritage, he uses his nose as a hand focusing on the soul of Equipage, stripping its body of artifice and ornamentation, then clothing it afresh so it could radiate and charm again and again. Out of respect for its complexity Jean-Claude Ellena emphasised the spicy accord and the note of geranium, an invigorating note hovering between rose and mint. The indolence of sandalwood gives this new thoroughbred creation a caressing, sensual feel. RRP £80. Available to buy from Harrods, Selfridges, House of Fraser, John Lewis, Debenhams and selected perfumeries.
