Kilian Hennessys inspiration: KILIAN PARIS presents Born to be Unforgettable, an explosion of cola freshness that recreates the experience of a sparkling cola sip. It hits like an explosion, sparkles like true character and takes a classic cola into exciting new sensations. A scented creation featuring a cool and confident attitude impossible to forget. The perfume: The accord opens with a kick of fresh lime that leads into a signature blend of Cinnamon, Nutmeg and Vanilla to craft the cola sensation. The fragrance then leads into round and full-bodied Cedarwood notes of long-lasting impact.
Heir to a long line of cognac makers who were pioneers in luxury, Kilian decided to take up the torch of family tradition. His childhood haunts included the family cellars in Cognac. Remembering the "angels’ share" as part of his heritage, he was led into the world of perfumery. The "angels’ share" is what the House of Hennessy calls the percentage that - inexplicably - evaporates from cognac cellars, like an offering to the gods. Many of Kilian’s fragrances today carry this childhood memory as they are reminiscent of the sugar in the alcohol and the wood of the cognac barrels.
