Kilian Hennessy's Inspiration: The perfume expresses the traditional French 'Happy Hour', that early evening window of time when absinthe was served upon sugar into a glass and swirled with a spoon in a slow-paced ritual in which the liquid turns pastel green. This hue reappears in Fièvre Verte by KILIAN, an entirely naturally derived color: tender like a Parisian haze, or a Van Gogh painting coming to life. The Perfume: Absinthe essence opens Fièvre Verte with an instant head twist into a nostalgic heart of violet leaf and licorice root absolute. Its dry-down articulates a unique and precisely chosen facet of patchouli that resonates throughout, and blends into a trio of earthy woods along with vetiver and sandalwood.
