Humiecki & Graef Candour ~ new fragrance

Posted by Robin on 12 October 2012 8 Comments

Humiecki & Graef Candour

Niche line Humiecki & Graef have launched Candour...

...a fragrance that is inspired by the feeling of attachment. It is the brand’s ninth eau de toilette concentrée and engages, as do all perfumes by Humiecki & Graef, one aspect of the broad spectrum of human emotions.

Candour expresses the irreplaceable gift of mutual empathy, which is based on a commonly shared experience of two kindred spirits.

The name Candour describes the emotional state of the particular directness and open exchange between two (connected) people who have left the tentative phase of their relationship far behind. Two people who have developed their own intuitive language. The inspiration for the fragrance by Humiecki & Graef is the moment when these two people, who have gone their separate ways, meet up once again.

Candour was developed by Christoph Hornetz and Christophe Laudamiel. The notes include green notes, palm blossom, iris, ginger, galbanum, violet, olive, sage, lavender, cardamom, almond, vanilla bean, sandalwood and muguet.

Humiecki & Graef Candour is available now at First in Fragrance in Germany, 100 ml Eau de Toilette for €150.

    I fancy this simple bottle design and the cap looks great!
    Notes also sound promising. Will need to test it. Now off to locate the closest possible place where I can sample it.

        I’ve just found the nearest possible option for me which happens to be First in Fragrance. Fellow perfume lovers from Polish Perfume Split Board are planning to organize a group shopping so I’ll join them for a sample of Candour and few more.

      Hope it suits. So far, everything from this brand has been well done but haven’t been dying to own any.

    To me the notes do NOT go with the sentiment at all

      I don’t really associate particular notes with emotions, but clearly they do at H&G.
