\"Calèche or the essence of classicism. Seduction through the beauty of being Jean-Claude Ellena

CREATION
Created by perfumer Guy Robert in 1961, Hermès' first fragrance for women, Caleche, was reinterpreted in 1992 as Caleche soie de parfum, the name of which refers to the horse-drawn carriages that are emblematic of the House and its silk metier.

THE STORY BEHIND
Written in 1961 by Guy Robert, Caleche was Hermes' first fragrance for women. A highly feminine, woody, chypre floral, its name refers to the horse-drawn carriages that are emblematic of the house. Caleche is a novel that dazzles with the beauty of its raw materials, from the joyfulness of citrus fruit to the modernity of aldehyde notes; from the floral heart embellished with ylang-ylang, rose and jasmine to the woody, chypre sillage underscored by the nobility of the iris.

The Founders bear witness to the initial encounters between the house of Hermes and fragrance. They tell the story of the living heritage of Hermes, its references and secrets... These fragrances are timeless, yet never less than contemporary.

OLFACTORY NOTES
Floral with aldehyde aromas, Caleche Soie de Parfum combines the refined notes of aldehyde with opulent jasmine and generous rose.

THE OBJECT
The bottle, inspired by the lanterns of horse-drawn carriages, has a black cap reminiscent of a riding hat. The back label is illustrated with a design by Philippe Dumas, indicating that it belongs to the Parfums-Fondateurs collection.

THE PARFUMS-FONDATEURS COLLECTION
The Parfums-Fondateurs collection draws inspiration from the House's heritage. Each creation encapsulates Hermès' imaginary world in a name, a fragrance and a color. Over the years, Hermès has pioneered a bold style of perfumery, resulting from encounters with exceptional perfumers.

A light and delicate gesture reveals this fine and generous eau de parfum. The sillage is ample and generous. Show less
