Hermès Calèche Soie de Parfum 100ml Spray is the silkier 1992 reinterpretation of the French luxury house's classic 1961 women's chypre. A floral-aldehyde composition opening on aldehydes, citron, neroli and bergamot, a heart of May rose, damask rose, iris, jasmine and lily-of-the-valley, and a refined oakmoss, sandalwood, vetiver and cedar drydown — tonally lighter and more silken than the original Calèche.
About Hermès
Hermès is the storied French luxury house founded in Paris in 1837 by Thierry Hermès, and is today led by the family across leather goods, scarves, ready-to-wear and perfumery. Calèche was launched in 1961 — a chypre tribute to the brand's equestrian heritage — and the 1992 Soie de Parfum reinterpretation softened the structure for a more wearable, contemporary silhouette.

Who it's for
Long-time Calèche wearers wanting the more refined silken reinterpretation, and anyone drawn to floral-aldehyde chypres with a polished, classical-French signature. Suited to office wear, smart-occasion wear and warmer-than-cold seasons. The Soie de Parfum strength sits between Eau de Toilette and Eau de Parfum for a softer, lingering wear.
How to use
- Spray two to three times onto pulse points: throat, behind the ears and on the wrists.
- Allow the citrus-aldehyde opening to settle without rubbing the wrists together.
- Layer with a neutral, unscented body lotion to extend longevity.
- Re-apply through the day as needed for a slightly more projecting wear.
