“Hermetica is a collection of molecular fragrances inspired by the ancient practice of alchemy, which sought to transform basic metals into precious materials and to find the ultimate elixir of life.” ~ HERMETICA website
John and Clara Molloy, the founders of Memo Paris and Floraiku, in collaboration with Symrise (the global producer of fragrance and flavor company) introduced Hermetica eaux de parfums which are vegan, clean, green, alcohol-free, refillable, long-lasting and cruelty free. Each combines both synthetic molecules and natural ingredients. These water-based scents go on lightly, wear tenaciously, and provide a fragrance that not only smells terrific, but moisturizes the skin as well. They can be worn alone or can be layered, and the they do not follow a traditional fragrance pyramid of top, middle and base notes. Recently I had the opportunity to test them at the ScentExplore Event (our friend and reader Gerald Martin Moore really loved Hermetica VerticalOud).
Here on CaFleureBon we have a series… The Three You Should Be Wearing where our editors and contributors recommend three perfumes from a brand that we believe you should try, especially if you are new to niche fragrances or the particular collection. I asked Editor Sebastian Jara to choose three Hermetica Fragrances he admired and in this in depth video about the brand he shares his choices:
Hermetica VerticalOud: Resinous, woody with hints of rose but the oud is prominent on my skin.
Hermetica PatchouliLight: This is Sebastian’s favorite. There are notes of sandalwood and iris and of course patchouli
Hermetica Rosefire is sure to please rose fragrance lovers… there’s a candied feeling to the scent that is reminiscent of Turkish Delight. –Michelyn Camen, Editor-in-Chief
