Angels' Share - On The Rock

by Benoist Lapouza

An icy freshness that slowly warms up on the skin. Angels' Share - On The Rock is a fresher, livelier take on the woody, boozy theme, with a sharper and more dynamic feel.

Who it's for, when to wear it

A unisex fragrance, citrus and woody. Wear it on relaxed days out and in the evening. Powerful sillage: it carries well beyond arm's length. Top Notes: on the rocks accord, bitter orange. Heart: cognac, cinnamon. Base: tonka bean, oak. Composed by Benoist Lapouza.

How to wear it

Fresh notes fade faster than the rest, so be generous on the neck, wrists and collar, and keep a top-up for later in the day. It layers well with a woody or musky scent to extend its longevity.

The fragrance

Angels' Share - On The Rock sets out to recreate the effect of a drink served over ice: something cold at first, which then slowly warms on contact with the skin.

The fragrance opens on an aromatic, lightly lemony freshness, almost icy, that feels instantly crisp and refreshing. Then it turns spicier, with warmth beginning to show while a certain tension remains.

Over time, the whole warms further, with woods and rounder nuances that recall the DNA of Angels' share, in a lighter, more fluid version. The fragrance stays less dense and airier, moving gradually from cold to warm.

This is a fresher, more modern interpretation, playing on the contrast between icy freshness and woody warmth.

The brand

Kilian Paris is a perfume house founded in 2007 by Kilian Hennessy, an eighth-generation direct descendant of Richard Hennessy, founder of the cognac house of the same name, and grandson of the patriarch who oversaw the creation of LVMH. A heritage he chose to honour in his own way, by taking a radically personal direction. It all began with a final-year dissertation at Celsa on the semantics of scent, then training alongside the greatest noses, Jacques Cavallier and Thierry Wasser, before years spent at Dior and Armani. The decision to create his own house came from a visit to the Baccarat museum: faced with a century of perfumery condensed into bottles that were objects in their own right, Kilian realised that something had been lost along the way. He handed in his resignation the next day. His founding conviction fits into one sentence: 'True luxury should be eternal.' Every Kilian Paris bottle has been refillable from day one, in 2007, long before sustainability became a selling point. The collections are organised around dualities of sin and innocence, light and darkness, love and the forbidden, all across four olfactory families: Fresh Citrus, Narcotic Flowers, Cellar Woods and Smoke Trails. Angels' share pays tribute to the vapours of the Cognac cellars of his childhood. Love Don’t Be Shy – Extreme has become a modern classic of sensual vanilla. Kilian Paris perfumes all carry a story and fully live up to their motto: Don't be shy.
