THE CREATION The Eau de Toilette Violette Volynka from the Hermessence collection is an elegant and surprising encounter between masculine and feminine essences and two unique fragrance notes that are inseparably linked here like the two sides of a coin. "I chose Russian Volynka leather as the starting point. As a counterpart to its very pronounced scent, I had a particularly delicate flower in mind - the violet. " Christine Nagel, perfumer at Hermès. THE fragrance notes The Eau de Toilette Violette Volynka smells intense and delicate at the same time. The distinctive character of Volynka leather and subtle, powdery violet notes are perfectly balanced. THE Flacon The container of the Eau de Toilette Violette Volynka shines in the vibrant, luminous violet colour of its leather cap and bottle body. THE Ethics The 200 ml refill for the Violette Volynka Eau de Toilette can be used to refill an empty bottle. It is an indispensable addition to this object designed for sustainability. HERMÈS' special detail Diamond-shaped grain, red-brown colour and peaty, woody, smoky fragrance - Volynka leather tells the story of its vegetable tanning. Its incredible robustness is the result of thousands of years of craftsmanship: oak bark is ground up and the animal skins are dipped in birch bark decoction.
