A VIBRANT ROSE, BATHED IN FRESHNESS
Rosa Verde captures the feel-good effect of a dive on a summer’s day.
The exhilarating aquatic freshness of cucumber evokes the invigorating frisson of skin plunging into water. The caress of rose soon unfolds, like the wave of pleasure that floods the body under the water’s surface. A vibrant green floral duo, accented with a crisp pear note and mellowed by a white musk accord.
With his brand new olfactory family, Kilian Hennessy wishes to pay tribute to his heritage as heir to the famous French family of cognac producers and to its olfactory intoxicating substances that prolong the night until dawn . For his first collaboration with perfumer Franck Voelkl, Kilian Hennessy wanted to recreate the taste of a “gin on the rocks” with a hint of lime, his wife’s favorite drink.
