Ice cracks beneath a stream of silky clear liquid, awakening deep curiosity for a taste composed of cool spices like cardamom and coriander plus aldehydes at the opening, Vodka on the Rocks evokes the frozen steam rising from ice cubes in a clear crystal tumbler. Bitter rhubarb accord, a splash of clear rose, and Lily of the Valley harmonize with an intoxicating leather undertone of sandalwood and oakmoss.
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.
