‘Kilian Paris unveils Her Majesty, the House’s very first chypre fragrance, a creation that embodies the art of Haute Parfumerie. Inspired by the trip to Japan of its founder and artistic director, Kilian Hennessy, and the delicate beauty of Sakura blossoms, Her Majesty translates this aesthetic experience into a unique olfactory composition. During a trip to Kyoto, where time seems to stand still, Kilian Hennessy strolled along the Philosopher’s Path. Struck by the sight of cherry blossoms carried by a light breeze, their petals scattering like snow, he set out upon his return to translate this emotion – a mixture of grace and power – into a unique fragrance. With Her Majesty, KILIAN PARIS introduces its first Chypre fragrance, a modern reinterpretation in which Kilian Hennessy uses contrast to convey his emotion. Created in collaboration with perfumer Caroline Dumur, this fragrance belongs to the Narcotic Flowers olfactory family. To compose Her Majesty, Kilian Hennessy begins with ambrette seeds for softness, rose for grace, cedarwood for structure, and cypriol combined with oakmoss for depth. An aquatic note is inspired by the stream running alongside the Philosopher’s Path in Kyoto, while a delicate whisper of peach evokes the light, fruity facet of the sakura blossom. Each element—the ambrette seeds for their natural musk, the rose for grace, and the marine notes reminiscent of the flowing stream—was composed with meticulous precision, harmonizing into a fragrance of contrasts and emotions. Her Majesty presents herself as an invisible armor, made of grace and power.’ – Obsession Luxe
