Description

The free-spirited, thrilling life of a novelist

From a fruity, aromatic, sweet and fresh opening, it moves into cinnamon and vanilla.

Composed with a cocktail-like air by founder Gérald Ghislain, a former chef, it feels like a signature work that lets you fully sense the world of Histoires.

At the shop it's the most popular Histoires scent, often chosen by men and women alike; I can recommend it regardless of gender, and it's one I'd like first-time perfume wearers to try too.

1899 15mL Histores de Parfums

Born in 1899, as the turbulent 20th century was about to begin, Ernest Hemingway wrote actively not only in America but in Italy, Paris, Cuba and Spain.
He always pursued a thrilling daily life.
Going to the battlefield, falling in love anew, changing homes...
Because he kept creating his novels by staking his own life on them, they became compelling works that move people.

He never compromised, holding fast to his beliefs and style.
Inspired by Hemingway's many sides, adventurer, journalist, writer, this scent lifts the spirit, sparks the imagination and invites you to a thrilling adventure.

This scent cannot hold all of Ernest Hemingway's talent, but you'll feel his vibrant energy.

For 1899, Gérald Ghislain created a scent carrying a romantic spirit of adventure.
A top of Italian bergamot, juniper and pepper opens like an aperitif that whets the appetite.
Guided by the nickname "Papa Hemingway", the Mediterranean air stretching from Spain to Italy arrives at a calm, dark amber and vetiver.
It recalls a Cuban bar fitted with polished wood.
Cooling a heated body with Scotch, you'll encounter an exotic world.
