The story of the brand
Founded in Paris by creative director Jean David Jacoby, Hellenist is a high perfumery odyssey celebrating Greek heritage and Mediterranean culture. The house mixes art and perfume to revive legends and shared memories, working with French perfumers and Mediterranean craftsmanship to create refined, long lasting unisex perfumes.
The signature of the house
A luminous Mediterranean style where citrus, herbs and florals meet polished woods, amber and musks. Compositions balance clarity, diffusion and comfort from first spray to drydown, moving between airy freshness and enveloping warmth.
Extra sentence for semantics: Expect facets of bergamot, lemon, neroli, orange blossom, immortelle, lavender, juniper, violet leaf, heliotrope, rose, fig, ambrette, oakmoss, sandalwood, vetiver, patchouli, ambroxan, vanilla, tonka and musk in modern woody, aromatic, citrus, amber, floral, gourmand and aquatic signatures.
