Hermes Rose Amazone

by: Sanja Pekic

Hermes launched Amazone fragrance back in 1974 (and re-launched it in 1989). The fragrance was of a free and modern femininity; made as an intense combination of green, floral and woody aromas. At the end of 2014, there comes a new, modern version of this legendary fragrance, named Rose Amazone, launched under the Collection Les Classiques.

"A new Amazone who is so much more contemporary, brave and powerful but also extremely feminine. Rose Amazone, a sparkling, tangy and tender perfume, brightened by citrus fruits, currants and raspberries. A perfume full of colours for cheerful fragrancing."

The in-house perfumer Jean-Claude Ellena  is credited for this remake. The main ingredients include citruses (bergamot, lemon, orange, mandarin and grapefruit), red currant, leaves and buds of black currant, raspberry and blackberry. There are also floral notes of rose, laid on a background of sweet amber, vanilla and woods.

Available as 100 ml Eau de Toilette.
