Created in 1974 by perfumer Maurice Maurin, Amazone symbolizes a freedom-loving, modern femininity. This floral, green fragrance harmony is inspired by the legendary horsewomen who, according to legend, once ruled the shores of the Black Sea.
THE FRAGRANCE NOTES
In the floral, green fragrance of Amazone Eau de Toilette, the powdery notes of blackcurrant bud are tempered with delicate rose notes and milky sandalwood notes.
THE OBJECT
The bottle is inspired by the lanterns of horse-drawn carriages of yesteryear, and the black cap is reminiscent of the shape of a riding helmet. The fragrance's affiliation with the Parfums-Fondateurs collection is indicated by the label on the back, which features a motif by Philippe Dumas.
THE PARFUMS-FONDATEURS COLLECTION
The Parfums-Fondateurs collection draws its inspiration from the heritage of the House of Hermès. Each creation encapsulates the fantasy world of Hermès in a name, a fragrance, a color. Over the years, Hermès has written a new chapter in its history with original, expressive perfumes, created in collaboration with unique perfumers.
Amazone alludes to the mythical warrior women who, according to legend, ruled the shores of the Black Sea, and today stands for the modern, independent woman. Composed in 1974 by Maurice Maurin around the basic motif of blackcurrant bud, the fragrance is a green, floral harmony in which daffodil, narcissus, galbanum, red fruits, and vetiver resonate.
