Translated into Hermes in China, it is a French brand of 170 years. At first, it was harness, and then gradually began to produce leather goods, accessories and perfumes. In 2002, jean paul gaultier, a famous naughty boy in fashion, was invited as the chief designer of women's clothing, that is, the perfume bottle was shaped like a woman's upper body. Hermes is the most famous silk scarf, dignified and gorgeous. Even a smelly man like me is a little tempted and decides to buy one for his wife when he works. Another classic is the Kelly bag named after Grace Kelly. It is said that each bag is handmade and embroidered with the name of the producer. If the bag is damaged or repaired, it must still be handed over to the manufacturer.

Hermes doesn't have much perfume, but she has always maintained a delicate and gorgeous tradition. There are 24 faubourg (literally meaning suburb, but I don't know what it will be translated into in China, and the following Chinese names are also literal), Amazone (Amazonian), Caleche (open carriage), Eau d\'Hermes (water rouge), Eau d\'Orange Verte (green orange), Hiris and Rouge. Male fragrance includes Bel Ami (good friend), Equipage (cheers) and Rocabar.

My favorite 24 suburbs are produced in 1996. It is said that the pattern on the bottle is the pattern on the silk scarf. The taste of this is between fresh and rich, and it's hard to describe what it feels like. There is another one I like, which is made by Hiris, 1999, and it is mainly iris. I have never heard of this kind of flower before, but it tastes sweet and warm. It is said that iris is the only flower variety that can extract fragrance from roots, and 2.5t fresh roots can only extract 150g of the best iris pure perfume. As a plant idiot, I don't comment on this. Rouge Hermes, a kind of CD-like red poison, has a charming feeling that it can't be turned away.

Suburb No.24

It is said that Amazone is for women who like sports. I have never heard of it. I haven't smelled any other perfume either.

If I had to choose the spokesperson of Hermes, I would choose the Italian model monica bellucci, who is beautiful and sexy enough. Domestic fans are probably most familiar with her starring role.

I bought a new bottle of Un jardin en Mediterranee more than a month ago, which may be the only neutral perfume.

In fact, many time-honored brands started out as tourism products. Louis Vuitton started as a classic suitcase, so did Prade, and Hermes started as a saddle manufacturer.

In the past, people who could travel frequently were generally rich. People who go to Fontainebleau from Paris or the coast of Provence in summer are of course either rich or expensive, while those who often travel between several continents are either aristocratic princes or newly rich. Frequent travel has promoted the development of suitcase manufacturing industry, and gradually suitcase manufacturers have established their own brands and extended them to other product lines such as clothing, so as to better serve these wealthy customers.

Actually, business trip, sightseeing, traveling and vacation are totally different things. Traveling on business is shuttling between airports, hotels and offices; Sightseeing is to follow the tour group to run more than a dozen scenic spots a day, and each scenic spot only has time to take pictures and buy things; Traveling is to pack your bags and explore the local customs of the streets and alleys around the country; Holidays are really relaxing.

People who don't travel often (such as young people who just work) always like the opportunity to travel and can go to many places for free. But they often gradually find that business trip itself is actually a very tiring thing, and they don't have much spare time to explore a new place.

I'm past the age of traveling. Even if you go to a new country or city, there is no novelty and excitement, as if most cities are the same. Taxis coming out of the airport often can't tell which country they are in without looking at the signs of roadside buildings; Sometimes I even wake up early, looking at the layout of standard rooms and fixed TV channels, and it takes a long time to figure out which city I am in.

As for sightseeing, because of the limitation of time and place, I have only been there twice, and I will definitely not join a group when I have other choices. In the 1980s, Japanese tour groups killed all over the world, but now the tide turns, and mainland tour groups are common. Many interesting things about it will be discussed next time.

What I like is traveling and vacation.

When I was at school, I liked traveling very much and often wandered around the country with my bag on my back. I like to look for those ancient traces in strange cities, search for interesting and delicious things according to all kinds of legendary notes I have read before, deliberately meet many strangers and enjoy the feeling of meeting by chance.

I prefer to take a vacation after work. No morning call, no schedule, staring at the lakes and mountains or the grass in the park, staring in a daze with the people around you. But I won't live in a youth hostel with a backpack, and I won't trudge to the barren land. It may be a unique experience, but I'm tired of working. Why should I mistreat myself or physically torture myself on vacation?

Therefore, the Un Jardin en Mediterranee Garden of Hermes is one of my favorite perfumes, which is perfect for me to wear when I am on vacation. Soft, lazy taste, not a trace of sweetness that will make people upset, just let me relax quietly, and then find a soft sofa or recliner to sleep.

This limited edition perfume was launched in 2003. It is a neutral perfume, and three shades can be found online:

Foretaste: oleander, bergamot, citrus

Middle taste: jasmine, Nile water lily, summer orange blossom.

Aftertaste: fig tree, frankincense resin tree and cedar

In fact, the faint fragrance of oleander is mixed with bitterness. Is it rare in the raw materials of perfume?

Perfume is Hermes' new perfume in 2004, which literally means water of miracles (elegance and beauty ...). It seems that it has also been translated into orange and starlight in China. The color is light orange, and there are dots in the bottle.

The front taste is ordinary citrus, and the main melody is extremely light oriental fragrance or moss fragrance, which is almost indistinguishable. Even the peach I ate in the morning smells better than it. It seems that Hermè s' summer limited edition preparation has always been so casual and light. In any case, Hermes did not combine several common flower arrangements to launch a new perfume like many brands.

I was in a good mood when I came back from shopping. Today, I went to the hotel restaurant to see the chef's recommendation, and found that their buffet only had two main courses, but there were at least 20 appetizers and at least 40 sweets. Have character, that's all. I didn't eat in chateau this time, Sam, don't drool. )

First, I ate two bites of bread and a little mixed vegetable salad, then I tasted some bacon and sausage, and then I drank some soup to have a rest.

Then a plate of raw ham and melon. Melon is wrapped in a thin jambon and sent to the mouth. Salted ham and sweet juice of melon are mixed together. What a wonderful feeling. This is one of my favorite appetizers, but unfortunately there are not many places in China where you can buy French, Italian and Spanish ham, and domestic ham is not suitable for this.

After eating some other appetizers, it is the main course. The main course is not good, nothing new, not to mention, it is not the main course at all.

Then I had a rest, ate some fruit to get greasy, and rallied to March towards sweets.

The first dessert that fell into my Wuzhishan was dear Tiramisu, a large cup. A thick layer of pure cocoa powder is mellow and bitter, and a layer of cream is tender and smooth, which melts in the mouth. Coupled with the cake soaked in wine at the bottom, several flavors are mixed together. To paraphrase the lines in Zhou Xingxing's movies, it is: "That feeling is like the taste of first love ..."

Imagine, as if you could see a person wearing a white gauze approaching on the beach in the distance, and the music sounded "The sky in the Liberated Area is sunny ..."; Slow motion, facial close-ups, Ng Man Tat or Fui-On Shing or a face intoxicated like a flower ...)

Then I divided them into mysterious chocolate Mu Si, noble ice cream and dual personality. ......

Finally, I couldn't eat any more, so I had to give up cheese and espresso.

The family next to them, like Southeast Asians, strictly abide by the hygiene standards. Everyone only eats a big plate of grass (that is, a salad made of various lettuce leaves), a main course and a little fruit. This is not the United States where TV fans are rampant, but Paris. It's a pity to haggle over calories.

24 Faubourg, named after the address of Hermes flagship store in Paris. The design of the bottle is said to be a silk scarf, which is quite elegant.

I saw on the Internet that this perfume is fresh and fragrant, but I don't think it is like the floral notes of those modern perfumes, but it has a bit of classical taste. In the main melody, the flowers are not heavy, but there are some amber and sandalwood flavors, which are very dignified.

The slogan is "Light is a woman's door".

The English version is the inner light that makes you shine.

I don't think the English version fully translates French. In fact, French means that every woman has her own inner light (attractive place).

Basically, every woman usually shows a fixed appearance, or sexy or Leng Yan, or even plain face, which varies from person to person. However, everyone has their own inner light, and many women just shine this light in front of one or several people, or show a different side from usual. Every woman also has a naive, charming and delicate side ... On the one hand, no matter how strong and hard the woman is, most men are not lucky enough to see or don't know how to look at it.

By the way, I think of a new movie, which is called "Warm and Bright" in Chinese (just like this name) and "Eternal Sunshine of a Clean Mind" in English, starring Jim Carrey, Kate Winslet and kirsten dunst. This movie is probably the one I am most looking forward to this year. I hope it can move me as much as The Truman Show.

24 Faubourg this also has a light version of eau delicious.

Iris, refreshing and soft taste, I like this one very much. A girl who is a little generous, a little soft and unobtrusive is quite suitable.

Iris is iris, the national flower of France. It is said that the blue iris is graceful. But I never send flowers, so I don't know much about flower language. As for elegance, it is rare in this era. How can a woman be elegant without a man's elegant care?

Rouge Hermes always feels a little creamy, but generally speaking, it is more stable and not too greasy, not as glamorous as red poison, nor as passionate as Amore. This model should be suitable for reserved and unassuming women.

Guerlain

It's called Guerlain in China. Pierre-Francois-Pascal Guerlain founded this brand at 1828. Because Guerlain keeps introducing new perfumes, even the royal families of all countries are its supporters. For example, Queen Eugenia specially hired Guerlain as an expert on royal perfume. About how many kinds of Guerlain perfume there are, a fashion magazine I read said there are 700-800 kinds. Guerlain began to produce skin care cosmetics series in the 20th century. 1994 joined LVMH group.

Guerlain's brand history is not much to say, and you can turn to a lot online. It is worth mentioning that Guerlain, like Chanel and CD, is a member of LVMH, but her sales channel is independent. LVMH Group not only owns many fashion brands, but also has strong sales channels, such as Sephora, DFS, and La Samaritaine, the world's largest cosmetics and perfume chain stores. Because there are no specialized cosmetics and perfume chain stores in China, general cosmetics and perfumes are set up in department stores. But in Europe and America, cosmetics and perfume chain stores should be the largest sales channels, and department stores are relatively small. Due to the high cost of manpower and land price, general brands of cosmetics and perfumes are sold in cosmetics and perfume chain stores, and few of them open their own stores, except Guerlain. As for why this happened, I don't know.

..................................................................................................................................................................................

Welcome back after the commercial.

My favorite Guerlain perfume is L\'heure Bleue, produced by 19 12. China seems to be a melancholy time. At first, the taste may be a little astringent, but it gradually dispersed, and the blue woman was surrounded at arm's length, with endless aftertaste. I can't help thinking of a French song "Magic Avenue", which is the ending song of Lenovo Universal Studios. I can't find the connection of this song for the time being. Please look at the lyrics below:

Mofa boulevard

Shenqi boulevard

She has to watch a movie hundreds of times.

The same crime

The same scene

She always works alone.

She helped people occupy this place.

Find the last chair

Or the position of the first row.

The love dialogue on the big screen goes on day and night.

Come and go in her ear like the wind.

She just despises other people's love.

But sometimes,

A picture will also move her.

She lives strangely in the dark.

On this magical avenue

She always hides her despair.

She left the lovers quietly.

They closed their eyes.

Missed the movie screen

She sold her dream with ice cream.

The smile flashed casually.

Her lips

She has a flashlight.

It feels beautiful.

You can be a movie star.

Sometimes the theater is empty.

The whole movie is her performance.

This is Ingrid Bergman.

She looked at the crowds coming and going.

Someone she knows well.

Those cold-hearted people

Not a word.

No one has ever

Shake her hand.

Her tears immediately flowed down.

When there is a "dramatic ending" on the screen.

Shalimar is Sanskrit, which means the temple of love. The Chinese name of this perfume is One Thousand and One Nights. The perfume was inspired by the Taj Mahal, the favorite concubine of Indian emperor Sha Jiahan. The garden they walked through was Shalima. The Taj Mahal is also one of the seven wonders of the world. Another reincarnation is also in Indian Sanskrit, and its Chinese name is Samsara.

Other well-known perfumes include Habit Rouge male fragrance, Jicky, which is completely refined from the essence of flowers without any modification, and Madame Butterfly produced by 19 19. Champs Elysé es champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs champs.

Guerlain regards it as a kind of "Les eaux" which is very popular among people, and it does not belong to the category of perfume.

Guerlain is probably the brand that produces the most perfume. Some say they have produced more than 400 kinds, while others say they have produced more than 700 kinds. However, the promotion of this brand in China is not strong enough, and there are not many sales stores, so the status of this brand among domestic consumers (especially young consumers) is not commensurate with its international status.

When I wrote about other brands before, I also talked about the relationship between perfume brands and the country. Basically, brands other than French brands, including Estee Lauder, Ya Dun and modern designer brands, all developed after the 1960s and 1970s, but many French brands were established in the last half century or even earlier, which is one reason why French perfume has almost become synonymous with perfume.

Almost all the classic perfumes for decades or even hundreds of years come from French brands. For example, Arpège introduced by Lanvin of 1927, Miss Dior introduced by Dior of 1947, fly with me introduced by Nina Ricci of 1948, Bourjois of 65438.

Guerlain was probably the most classic perfume before World War II. "Vol de Nuit", "Shalimar", Samsara, Jicky, "Madame Butterfly" and so on were all classics of 70 to 80 years or even hundreds of years.

Before World War II, the consumers of perfume mainly came from the wealthier class. Most perfumes were used to match formal dinner dresses and adopted rich floral themes. Therefore, the fragrance of these classic perfumes is very rich, and people who may be used to the new generation of mainstream light floral fragrance will not be used to it.

Shalimar (Arabian Nights) and Samsara (Samsara) are both named after Indian Sanskrit and are also oriental perfumes. India's ancient and splendid culture has a special attraction to the west. Two or three hundred years ago, the nobles in Arabia, India and Russia were much richer than those in Europe (there were no nobles in the United States), so the most exquisite jewelry in the world basically came from these three places. Among them, the habit of using spices in India and Arabia is much longer than that in Europe and America.

Personally, I don't like Arabic and Indian styles very much. Arab culture and Islamic religion are basically integrated, but Islam is probably the only religion that promotes violence in the world, so it makes me a little uncomfortable. India, in fact, began to develop culture from the four ancient civilizations, but the mainstream is very extravagant, because India's hierarchy is much stricter than that of China, and the gap between the rich and the poor has not changed much for thousands of years. Therefore, Indian culture seems to be the splendid culture of the nobility, and it is tiring to watch too much.

I personally don't like Arabs and Indians very much. Abroad, China students are not very interested in Arabs and Indians. I don't want to speak ill of the nation here. There are no Arabs or Indians in China. I don't think most users will feel anything in this respect.

Speaking of reincarnation, we will now think of our great axe girl _ reincarnation. If you haven't been with a person, you can't judge which perfumes she is suitable for. I haven't seen Lady_Samsara, and I don't know if this is suitable for her. But judging from her writing style, she can still resist this classic perfume. Too young girls are not suitable for these old classics, not all because of the strong flavor or what kind of clothes they wear, but because too young girls lack something to remember slowly, such as experience, sophistication, composure, connotation, a little more frivolous, material, quick success and so on. So I think all the perfumes mentioned in this post may not be suitable for the new generation of girls (at least for now, maybe it will be better in five to ten years). At present, they should basically try more Hugo Boss and other perfumes in the information age.

Champs Elysé es was launched in the 1990s, with mimosa as the main theme, and was recognized by Sophie Marceau. Her appearance, figure and temperament are really indescribable. She is one of the most beautiful 007 girls (I also like the witch in do or die, but that's already the roger moore version of 007. I don't know here. French women are really a kind of scenery, more amorous feelings than American women.

It is said that one of Sophie Marceau's boyfriends is Isabelle Adjani's ex-boyfriend. Once, a reporter asked her this question, and Sophie Marceau replied: I am younger than Adjani, taller than her and in better shape. Of course, that person will choose me. (Ha ha ha ...)

Of course, the name of the Champs Elysé es comes from the Champs Elysé es in Paris, which is almost the most romantic and famous street in the world. At one end of the street is the Arc de Triomphe, and at the other end is the Place de la Concorde. Napoleon's literary martial arts are undoubtedly reflected.

Vol de Nuit is also an extremely classic perfume, which is Yi Shu's favorite. A few days ago, I reviewed the Japanese comic book Cat's Eye in the 1970s, which also said that this midnight flight is cat's eye's favorite perfume, and I can't help but sigh that there is one family in the world.

The year of French culture has finally begun. I wanted to go to the French Week in yandang road last week, but I was too busy to make it.

The French fashion exhibition will be exhibited in Beijing first, and then in Shanghai. There are many big-name clothes on the online exhibits, including Hermes scarves and Kelly bags, while perfume bottles of N0.5 and below: Arpege of Longfan, Vol du Nuit and Liu of Guerlain, and one of Joy of Jean Patou.

Although Chanel and Dior are the greatest designers and both have classic perfumes, if I have to choose the brand that best represents French perfume and even the whole perfume industry, I will still choose Guerlain. When I said Guerlain before, I didn't map it very much. Here are some supplements.

As I said before, the Champs Elysé es is supported by Sophie Marceau. In fact, this route is still relatively young and modern. It is also good for girls in their early twenties, and can also be used for work and leisure. It belongs to the all-round type.

There are few perfumes named after streets, because there are few famous streets. The Fifth Avenue in Ya Dun is taken from the fashion center in new york. Hermes' 24 Faubourg is the address of its flagship store, and Faubourg St.Horone Street can be regarded as the fashion center of Paris. The Champs Elysé es in Guerlain is taken from the famous Champs Elysé es in Paris.

Nowadays, the Champs Elysé es has become a symbol of Paris, and together with the Arc de Triomphe and Eiffel Tower, it has become a symbol of romantic France. The LV flagship store on this street has also become a sacred place in the eyes of many Japanese and Chinese women. However, most tourists only stay in half of this street near the Arc de Triomphe. In fact, the half of the Champs Elysé es near Place de la Concorde is the essence of Paris. If a friend goes to Paris next time, it is best to take a walk at sunny noon, and you will find that the world is completely different from the other side of this street.

If I want to recommend French songs, I will first recommend joe dassin's Champs Elysé es and marc lavoine's Paris, and then Edith Piaf's la vie en rose, which is a classic national anthem.

It is said that L\'Instant's male fragrance is also on the counter in China. This perfume is too sweet and sticky for me. It may be suitable for men and women who are in love or newly married. I can't imagine what male fragrance looks like.

Mitsuko is a kind of perfume that belongs to the older generation flying at midnight, with a special traditional smell.

Other perfumes also use this bottle, such as L\'heure Bleue and so on. The name comes from the allusion of the opera, and the one mentioned by Liu at the beginning also comes from the allusion of the opera Turandot.

But I'm not very interested in opera: listening to opera is a hobby of cultural people. Even if I have no ink in my chest, I will fall asleep in the opera house, and I can't guarantee that I won't snore or drool.

I went home late every day these two days and walked on the deserted path in the community. Suddenly, the nose caught the refreshing sweet-scented osmanthus fragrance.

In such an environment, the eyes are freed from the colorful daytime, and the hearing and smell become more sensitive. I looked up at the stars all over the sky, heard the breeze blowing through the leaves and smelled the pure fragrance of Jingui, and suddenly felt very quiet in my heart.

In the last post, I just mentioned that I am an urban creature. Let's talk about the opposite of the city-the countryside.

Accordingly, what should be mentioned is a relatively simple and pure perfume: Guerlain's eau de toilette series, including flowers, plants and water series.

Everything is too much, the doctrine of the mean, yin and yang, can be understood as one meaning. Similarly, after living in the city for a long time, I really need a holiday to enjoy the comfortable life in the sunny beach or the countryside. If you live in the countryside for too long, you will inevitably yearn for the colorful city.

So, if one day you are tired of the perfume that is too gentle, sexy and deep, try not to imitate the flowers of Guerlain.

Aqua anabolia is a floral eau de toilette. The bottles in this series are basically the same style with slightly different colors.

The name of each perfume is basically related to flowers and plants, and the main idea is clear at a glance.

Of course, there are still three colors in this series of perfumes, but the ingredients are not as complicated as ordinary perfumes, and the taste changes are much less. The main tone is very simple and clear. In addition, many strong or artificial musk, amber, leather, aldehydes and so on, which are common in other perfumes, are not seen in this series.

If those changeable and enchanting perfumes are symbols of popular material desires among cities, then the water language of flowers and plants is the direct, warm and happy taste of sunshine, trees, breeze and streams in small towns.

I really don't know how many series of flowers, plants and water language there are. What I have seen or seen on the Internet are: Anisia Bella (fennel), Foliflora (flower god), Rose Magnifica, Herba Fresca (mint grass), Mentafollia (mint tea), Lemon Fresca (lemon flavor), Winter Delice, Lilia Bella and Pamplelune (grapefruit). ......

In addition to flowers, plants and water series, there are water of flowers, small guerlain and guerlain water.

In fact, the most relaxing taste is to enjoy the natural and pure taste without any perfume: the wet taste of fresh cucumber, the sweet taste of baked sweet potato without any seasoning, the grass smell of freshly cut lawn, and the pure fragrance of gardenia osmanthus in quiet night. ......
