Call it by its name or, more simply, by ‘Hermann’. Either way the people who compliment you are going to need to know which fragrance you’re wearing. A cool, sheer and woody blend that is unlike any other.
Also available as a scented candle.
Who goes beside you into the forest on the darkest night ? In Victor Hugo’s poem, « À quoi songeaient les deux cavaliers dans la forêt », (What Two Horsemen Were Thinking in the Forest), the narrator says “ by my side, Hermann seemed to me like a shadow. ”
We all have shadows, even at night in the dark forest. You may call yours by another name : your invisible friend. Your conscience, your soul, maybe even your complementary ego. Your shadow could have a name, like Hermann. Or your shadow could be your perfume. This is your companion. You can argue with your companion, you can challenge your companion, you can test the boundaries of your own attitudes. You can debate the finer points of existence. But you cannot lose this companion, not ever. This is your alternative self. As you move through life and contemplate its meaning, you ask unanswerable questions. When you’re overwhelmed with uncertainties, look to your shadow. Maybe you’ll get a response. Maybe not. But at least you’ll have an interesting conversation.

I discovered this perfume in Paris 4 years ago and every time I wear it I always get compliments from people and people asking me what is the fragrance.
I’m so glad I found this company, and particularly this scent. It’s both masculine and feminine. It’s not to heavy, and I like how long it lasts. It’s my favorite of all the collection so far.
this is the first fragrance i’ve ever purchased and i don’t get the other reviews, they must be smoking meth. it smells like every masculine leaning scent i’ve ever smelled. i kinda love it though. it smelled better on my bed.
