THE SCENT OF YOU
Harper's Bazaar India|October - November 2023
In an exclusive conversation with Bazaar India, CHRISTINE NAGEL, head perfumer at HERMÈS PARFUMS talks about her journey as a PERFUMER, the striking notes of the new TUTTI TWILLY D'HERMÈS and the inspiration behind the perfume.
THE SCENT OF YOU

Harper’s Bazaar: You have been a perfumer for long. What made you select it as a profession? Could you please take us through your journey? 

Christine Nagel: “It’s quite difficult to summarise my life’s journey and passion in just a few sentences. But the main thing to know is that I discovered my calling relatively late, through the emotion and indescribable pleasure that fragrances evoked in those around me. Then I couldn’t rest until I had become a perfumer, constantly learning, experimenting and perfecting my knowledge. I wasn’t afraid to take risks. And some wonderful encounters have marked my life. And I must say that the best of these was the most recent: my encounter with Hermès. Hermès’ values are full of humanity, freedom and diversity. They nourish my everyday work and creativity. And I’m exactly where I should be!”

HB: Ginger as a spice has many virtues. Why did you select it as the primary note for Twilly?
