Angel’s Share – A Tribute to Cognac and Heritage

Kilian Hennessy introduces Angel’s Share, a fragrance that pays homage to his legacy as an heir to the renowned Hennessy cognac-making family. This rich and intoxicating scent delves deep into the mystical world of fine spirits, inspired by “la part des anges” (the angel’s share)—the portion of liquor that evaporates from oak barrels during aging, like a silent offering to the heavens.

Much like a Master Blender perfecting eaux-de-vie, this fragrance is a harmonious blend of warmth, spice, and gourmand depth. It opens with the essence of cognac, derived directly from the liquor to lend a natural caramel hue. A heart of oak absolute, cinnamon essence, and tonka bean absolute adds a woody-spiced richness, reminiscent of aged barrels and the deep warmth of a fine spirit. As the scent lingers, a sumptuous base of sandalwood, praline, and vanilla creates a decadent, long-lasting finish, a concoction as rare and indulgent as the finest cognac itself.
