Inspired by the citiy of Paris, KILIAN PARIS introduces its new addition to the Liquors olfactive family: L’Heure Verte, an olfactive soundtrack to nightlife’s liberation to come. L’Heure Verte is named after the traditional French equivalent of ‘Happy Hour’, that early evening window of time when absinthe was served upon sugar into a glass and swirled with a spoon in a slow-paced ritual. The liquid turns pastel green; this hue reappears in L’Heure Verte’s own perfume elixir, an entirely naturally derived color: tender like a Parisian haze, or a Van Gogh painting come to life.
The Perfume:
Absinthe essence opens L’Heure Verte with an instant head twist into a nostalgic heart of violet leaf and licorice root absolute. Its dry-down articulates a unique and precisely chosen facet of patchouli that resonates throughout, and blends into a trio of earthy woods along with vetiver and sandalwood. A first-time collaboration between Founder Kilian Hennessy and French perfumer Mathieu Nardin, L’Heure Verte expresses Paris at its best—indulgent and life-changing in its luxuries and wonderful illusions.
Perfume notes:
Absinthe, Violet Leaf and Patchouli
A grand perfume that wraps around you like a cashmere veil… A perfume like no other, in many ways timeless and hard to describe with words. No.12 perfectly embodies the DNA of Puredistance: timelessly beautiful, elegant and very distinctive in character.
Jan Ewoud nicknamed No.12: ‘Beauty in Blue’. Dressed up in a rich tone of blue, he found it the perfect perfume to complete the MAGNIFICENT XII COLLECTION. No.12 is complex, rich, hard to define, full of character, long lasting in every way and aristocratic without arrogance or pretension.
A smoky effect, a divine emotion
An ethereal frankincense leaves only a fleeting mark on this fragrance, while rose imprints its fiery accents. But the endless sweetness and exceptional depth come from authentic and majestic ambergris of New Zealand, specially selected by Thierry Wasser for this fragrance. An enigmatic opus to sing the praises of a world devoted to eternity.
PERFUMERS SECRET
Ambergris gives this fragrance its intense character. Amber is one of the most luxurious raw materials in perfumery. Thierry Wasser used it to create an exceptional communelle by assembling blocks of amber according to their scent (salty, marine, warm, animal) to attain the perfect note. Ideal for men and women alike.
A diffusive top note of Osmanthus, Davana, Saffron, and Pepper provide initial impact, whilst a white floral accord of Moroccan Rose, Jasmin Sambac, Tuberose, and Moroccan Orange flower add a floral richness. The base notes include Indian Oud, Vetiver, Sandalwood, Amber Crystals, and precious Musks. Oud lover or not, you are bound to sign Oud Signature to your perfume collection.
A multi-facet scent with a shade of black leather, the Cuir Elite has a fruity-spicy top note that makes this fragrance irresistible, whilst the base notes impart a rich and memorable uniqueness. Indeed an elite choice.
This is a delightful incense floral with a warm resinous base.
The frankincense and amber create a beautiful warm temple / church vibe, unfurling into a rich floral heart of Indian tuberose and rose.
Absinthe and elemi and pink pepper add hedonistic make a slightly medicinal top note balanced with a spicy, woody and slightly sweet base.
INSPIRATION
Inspired by Vesta, the Roman goddess of purity, home and hearth. Her purity of heart and promise of fertility were symbolised in the eternal flames burning in her temples.
Like its inspiration this fragrance has an eternal elegance, appeal and a lightness of touch.
This spicy oud has an intense and slightly earthy woody heart, it is illuminated with incense and amber and the cistus, vanilla tonka and grey amber give it a warm, resinous and balsamic base.
Like the King of Gods, this scent is an unapologetic statement demanding attention.
INSPIRATION
Jupiter, the King of the Gods was revered and feared in equal measures. Highly temperamental, he ruled the heavens armed with the mighty thunderbolt, said to be the most powerful weapon among the gods. He rescued his siblings from death, led the victorious battle of Titans and overthrew his father for the throne.
Like Jupiter, well known for amorous pursuits, this scent is powerful, vigorous and seductive.
This dynamic perfume is bold and contradictory with spices and citrus, balanced with florals at the heart, with an animal earthy base.
A seductive fruity floral, introduced by a spicy citrus, moves swiftly into a clean floral heart of rose and lily of the valley, before grounding into a dark and bold woody musky base.
It is both intriguing and provocative dark floriental is a classic niche fragrance.
INSPIRATION
The Goddess of fortune, prosperity and divine blessings. Representing fate, a sometimes fickle friend, Fortuna was both revered for the abundance and success she promised to divine, and feared for the ill-fate she could deliver. Her influence weaves its way through history, literature, poetry, art, opera and astrology.
A dynamic perfume as mercurial as Fortuna herself.

Night falls; with it, rises the yearning for an embrace, for whispers and caresses… Skin against skin. The desire is fueled by the sensual heat wave coming from the Mediterranean forest, we call Garrigue, sprawling outside the house, charged with the noble and hypnotic scents of the cyst labdanum, Alep trees, patchouli, aromatic plants, golden resins and deep amber.
