Hermès
Country: France · Founded: 1837
Philosophy
Hermès approaches perfumery with the same philosophy as its leather goods — materials of absolute quality, construction that reveals itself over time, and understatement as the highest form of luxury. Under Jean-Claude Ellena, the house pioneered radical subtraction: saying more with less.
