Created by Jean-Claude Ellena, then in his final years as Hermes's celebrated in-house perfumer, for the Greek natural-cosmetics house Korres, White Tea Bergamot Freesia opens on bergamot, tangerine, and neroli, moves through a heart of freesia, tea, and cyclamen, and closes on cotton flower, musk, and oakmoss.
