Founded in France in 2007 by Kilian Hennessy, heir to the Hennessy cognac dynasty, the house translates his memories and taste for contemporary luxury into fragrances. Launched with ten creations, it was acquired by Estée Lauder in 2016, while retaining Kilian Hennessy as founder and creative director.

Kilian combines rare raw materials, long-lasting accords and stories inspired by memories, spirits, the night and seduction. Kilian Hennessy collaborates with renowned perfumers and extends this vision through black lacquered bottles, adorned with Achilles' shield and designed to be refillable.

Right now at Fragsplit, 10 Kilian fragrances are available as 1 to 10 ml decants: Angel's Share, Love Don't be Shy, Black Phantom, Woman in Gold, Angel's share Paradis…
