HERMES Bel Ami Vétiver Eau de Toilette - 100 ml

THE CREATION
In 2013, perfumer Jean-Claude Ellena interprets the fragrance Bel Ami in his own score with a new material: vetiver.

THE FRAGRANCE NOTES
The leathery and woody composition of the Bel Ami Eau de Toilette strikes new notes with the combination of intense vetiver, expressive leather, and sensual rockrose.

THE OBJECT
The bottle is inspired by the lanterns of horse-drawn carriages of bygone eras, and the black cap is reminiscent of the shape of a riding helmet. The fragrance's membership in the Parfums-Fondateurs collection is indicated by the back label, which features a design by Philippe Dumas

THE COLLECTION OF THE FOUNDATION CREATORS OF PERFUMES
The Founders of Perfume Collection draws its inspiration from the heritage of the House of Hermès. Each creation encapsulates the fantasy world of Hermès in a name, a fragrance, a color. Over the years, Hermès has written a new chapter in its history with original, expressive perfumes born from encounters with unique perfumers.

While Jean-Claude Ellena adheres to the established codes—the balanced character, pronounced elegance, and classic structure remain unchanged—he nevertheless writes his own score for Bel Ami, in which a new base ingredient sets the tone: vetiver. From leather with a chypre note to leather with a wood note—where patchouli once dominated, warm vetiver now shines with woody notes, green nuances, and barely perceptible smoky hints
