Kilian In the Garden of Good and Evil - Playing with the Devil Refillable Fragrance

“I want to put perfumery back on its pedestal by going back to the truth about perfume; back to the way perfume was made in the late 19th and the early 20th century, but adding a contemporary twist at the same time.” —Kilian Hennessy
