Hermes Equipage Geranium ~ new fragrance

Posted by Robin on 10 September 2015 8 Comments

Hermès Equipage Géranium

Hermès has launched Equipage Géranium, a new flanker to 1970's Equipage, originally developed by perfumer Guy Robert. Equipage Géranium follows the recent flankers Bel Ami Vétiver and Rose Amazone.

A thousand times I wanted to capture this scent, and a thousand times it escaped me. The element of surprise attracts me. I take this fragrance on holiday to discover it.” Jean-Claude Ellena

Equipage Géranium was reworked by perfumer Jean-Claude Ellena, to emphasize the geranium note and the spice accord. A sandalwood note adds a new 'sleek and sensual side'.

Hermès Equipage Géranium is available now at Le Bon Marché in France, €95 for 100 ml Eau de Toilette.

Update: the description from Hermès... "A message about its origins, a mystery surrounding its current existence… Jean-Claude Ellena casts a fresh eye over Equipage. For this aromatic men's perfume, which is as restrained as it is virile, he emphasises the spicy accord and the note of geranium, an invigorating note poised between roses and mint. The indolence of sandalwood gives this new thoroughbred creation a caressing sensual feel."

    As always the burning question with a new Hermès is: does it last longer than 15 minutes?
