Hermès has expanded its Hermessence collection with a new trio of fragrances inspired by the mystique of the Orient. Created by Christine Nagel, the house’s Director of Fragrance Creation, An Oriental Dream invites wearers into a world of refined elegance and imagination shaped by Eastern landscapes.

The collection includes:
• Agar Ébène — a deep blend of agarwood and the resinous freshness of fir balsam;
• Vétiver Tonka — grounding vetiver softened by the warm sweetness of tonka bean;
• Santal Massoïa and Ambre Narguilé — a dialogue of milky woods, dried fruits, honey, amber, and spices that linger with unexpected sensuality.

Each Hermessence fragrance is more than a scent — it’s a poetic journey that stays on the skin and in the imagination. Presented in signature lantern-shaped bottles with leather caps crafted in true Hermès tradition, the line embodies the maison’s artisanal artistry and timeless refinement.

Retail price: $362 per fragrance.
