Our Fragrance Philosophy
We believe fragrance is an essential element of the haircare experience. When you decide to enjoy a bain, mask or styling product, an entire sensorial world opens up. Instantly, your spirits are lifted. The fragrance lingers as you move through your day, a constant reminder of one truly luxurious moment.
Master perfumers create the iconic fragrances in Kérastase products, selecting only the finest ingredients—natural or synthetic—for a blend that smells pleasant and represents an authentic expression of the experience of the product or range.
Ingredients are distinct from notes. Notes represent scents from nature that can be sensed upon smelling the fragrance. Each fragrance is a blend of notes, which are classified in three categories, forming a fragrance pyramid: top notes, heart notes and base notes.
How we build the olfactory experience: Genesis Homme
The work of an accomplished nose, the Genesis Homme scent is a citrus-forward fougère with a rounded woodiness, representing a caring experience that invigorates the senses and uplifts the spirit.
The Genesis Homme accord provides an olfactory journey through all layers of fragrance. Top notes bloom from the bottle and become apparent during shampooing, while the heart note enriches the fragrance at each stage of the experience. The base note ensures a long-lasting fragrance on dry hair, to be enjoyed throughout the day.
