About Eau De Gentiane Blanche
Eau De Gentiane Blanche by Hermes is a sophisticated modern fragrance, launched in 2009 under the skillful creation of in-house perfumer Jean-Claude Ellena. Based on the fact that real gentian root is used for its formulation, this perfume is a new variant of the classic eau de cologne, being a product of Hermès' creativity and design. The brand's choice to craft the scent simply has granted it the quintessential purity of a customer who wants to get it special and feel like it's aristocratic.
Fragrance Family:
Aromatic
Scent Type:
Fresh, green, herbal
Notes:
Eau De Gentiane Blanche opens with a masterful interplay of fresh green gentian. As it adapts, the smell develops with smooth, earthy undertones which present barely noticeable strong sense of noble. The structure of the scent is different from the usual one, which contains top, middle, and base notes. It rather presents the perfect blend of white musk and delicate flora that gives it a clean and airy touch. The absence of sweetness is the reason this fragrance seems to be very cool to those who prefer to be interested and subtle instead of being rich and gold.
Suggested Use
For optimal fragrance longevity, apply Eau De Gentiane Blanche cologne to pulse points such as the wrists, neck, and inner elbows. This ensures the green and fresh elements are gradually released with your body's warmth, creating a sophisticated aura that complements any occasion. Perfect for daywear, its understated elegance makes it suitable for both business environments and casual outings.

Unique fragrance you won't smell on many
I prefer to stick with one fragrance, and this one has kind of become my signature. I've been wearing it for over 10 years and people always tell me they've never smelled it before, or never even heard of it. The story behind the flower itself is quite interesting. It's not overpowering or overwhelming - one has to be close to you to smell it, which I love - makes it intimate. Reminds me of fresh-cut flower stems.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.
