Kelly Calèche EDP
2009
“Leather gloves, silk lining, and the polished calm of someone who has always known better.”

The take
What works
- ●Ellena's leatherwork — soft iris-suede rather than harsh tannins
- ●True Hermès classic that captures the carriage heritage
- ●Autumn and evening character with real depth
Trade-offs
- ●Leather base is wrong for warmer months
- ●Less approachable than most of the Hermès women's range
