description

Composed by perfumer Guy Robert in 1961, Caleche was Hermès' first fragrance for women. Its name echoes the carriages that are emblematic of the House: a light and elegant 19th century horse-drawn conveyance. A floral fragrance with aldehyde aromas, Caleche is a very feminine blend of delicate aldehydes, billowing jasmine and light rose.

    This is a true classic classy, elegant, aldehydic floral and woodsy fragrance. It smells like leather and sandalwood with a hint of flowers, quite complex and refined. It could be sexy too with...

    Perfect scent. Like wood, leather, musk, forest, little bit of flower, little bit of powder... truly like a promenade in a Calèche! Femenine, clean and very personal and luxury. One of my favorites!

    Squirted this on myself last time I was in Sephora, thinking that the drydown would make me gag as usual, but by the time I got home, I was on the Internet looking for the best price. I've been...

    Smells like soap. Bitter soap. Very bitter soap. Awful. I used to own a bottle a long time ago. It's been 10 years now, I think. I was still in middle school.. heh. I'm going to try it on again....

    My all-time favourite since I was a tiny tot (my Aunt wore it) and though I have still probably not quite grown into it (Caleche is sophistication in a bottle!) I always have some on hand. If you...

    Immaculate clarity and composure. Caleche's blend of woods and very, very light floral notes has been described as "clean," but does not smell of "clean" in the way that many current fragrances...

    A beautiful feminine fragrance for those who like a softer scent. I wish more of the women who like Pleasures and Beautiful would discover this. It's not for me, but it is lovely and worthy of...

    I'd give this a 4.5 Very nice slightly citrusy, aldehydic, jasmine scent. A scent that is light and fresh rather than sexy or musky. Very classy and French-smelling. I think of it as something...

    Calèche reminds me of Chant d'aromes. Calèche being woodier and Chant being greener. Calèche has a smooth almost suede feel to the skin.
