Hera

Inspiration
Hera was originally created by perfumer Liz Moores as a bespoke perfume for her daughter to wear on her wedding day: a loving nod to past, present and future. In pure parfum concentration, Hera uses precious materials rarely found in modern perfumery, such as ambrette absolute and orris concrete. The result is celebratory, elegant and regal, a snapshot of the beauty of a bride.

The Signature of Hera
A burst of orange blossom opens a golden halo of warm white flowers. Jasmine and orris give a buttery, rich embrace, rose de mai adds a whisper of drama, and narcissus and ylang deepen the bouquet. Bright and opulent, with effortless glamour.

What our ParfuMaria team thinks of this fragrance
For us, Hera captures exactly what makes niche perfumery special: a radiant, celebratory scent with a clear signature. On the skin we notice how jasmine and orange blossom set the tone in the first hour, after which ylang and rose de mai slowly come forward. After several hours mainly orris and narcissus remain, close to the skin and ever more personal. We like to wear it best all year round, on special days, weddings and festive evenings. A scent for those who love white flowers in their most elegant and celebratory form.
