Perfumer: Jean-Claude Ellena.
Probable notes of (not confirmed yet) citron, bergamot, coriander, ginger, artemisia, cardamom, black pepper, tea, birch, white musk, amber and cedar.
Hermès's new unisex fragrance tries to explore an olfative travelling into an unspecified place.
"Voyage" is a fresh woody-musky scent.
This perfume does not smell like any kind of wood, or flower, or any particular subject, but the unknown itself in its own glory.
The bottle designed by Philippe Mouquet, (internal Hermès designer) is simply beautiful.
"Voyage" starts green and slightly citrus yet dry: citron and soft spices with a generous dose of black pepper, green tea and some ginger too.
An early stage very much alive.
When things calm down, "Voyage" becomes light woody melting with a powerful burst of cardamom and a soft herbal whisper too , in the background.
It develops woody musky, but still pretty green with pale touches of citruses and a soft white flowers touch. It has an aquatic soul without being aquatic; it's more like a sensation of damp, dewy fresh wood scent: a beautiful oceanic breeze blending with cedar.
"Voyage" tends to a masculine side rather than unisex, but I can see women wear it easily as is enough fresh, sexy and sophisticated.
I loved it from the very first sniff. although there is nothing extravagant, it also doesn't smell as cheap or generic as so many recent launches coming from brands that supposedly offer "luxury." scents.
Even though is super ultra expensive for what it really worths.
Projection is nule and the long lasting is more than mediocre; after a couple of hours nothing will remain on your skin.
