Perfume not only represents a person’s personality and style, but can also refresh the mood and evoke memories. Hermès breaks the age limit of perfumes and introduces the first “children’s perfume Cabriole”, its fragrance makes people think of the faint apricot scent on a child’s cheek.
“I want to create a comforting and fragrant water for the soul.” Hermès’ first children’s perfume, Cabriole, was created by perfume director and exclusive perfumer Christine Nagel. Cabriole means a leap with all four limbs off the ground, a standard equestrian movement that, in the eyes of a toddler taking their first steps, looks more like a beautiful spinning motion.
To interpret the happy childhood feelings, Christine Nagel uses playfulness and fun, exploring the world with fearless curiosity as the theme, especially combining the silkiness and tenderness of osmanthus, the delicacy and freshness of honeysuckle, and the elegance of sandalwood, blending into a fragrance of apricot, hoping to create an unspoken understanding between children and adults. This perfume is completely alcohol-free, so there is no need to worry about irritating the delicate skin of children.
The iconic Hermès perfume bottle design, with the addition of lively illustrations by Alice Charbin, depicts a child riding a pony and dancing, symbolizing the exploration of the world, perfectly capturing the theme of this fragrance.
