Hermès perfumer Christine Nagel explores the intricacies behind the Twilly d'Hermès range and shares her approach to olfaction with the house 
MELISSA MAE
The Heart of TWILLY

What makes Twilly d'Hermès such a compelling line? It must be the fragrances' complementary role as a tribute to the house's silk universe. Made up of Twilly d'Hermès, Twilly d'Hermès Eau Ginger, Twilly d'Hermès Eau Poivree, and most recently, Tutti Twilly d'Hermès, the four scents invoke the senses and encourage wearers to open themselves up to reinvention.

To find out more about what inspires the emblematic range, we look to Hermès perfumer Christine Nagel to understand how her approach to olfaction aligns with the house. "At Hermès, the beauty of raw materials lies at the core, the very heart, of every métier," she says. "Absolute rigour in the selection of materials, the development of know-how and attention to detail are all characteristics that nourish the uniqueness of Hermès objects."

Nagel elaborates: "All this is central to my decision-making. I never compromise on quality or details, even when they are invisible. Hermès gives us this unique freedom to choose our raw materials. It's an absolute luxury that allows me to go where no one else can go. So I make the most of it and don't restrict myself. The values of Hermès nourish my everyday work and that of my staff."
