AndrèSimon Hirondelle is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2026, created by Andrea Rusce. Hirondelle opens with Mandarin, Violet Leaf, and Sunflower, settles into a heart of Elderflower, Osmanthus, and Tea, and dries down to a base of Leather, Oud, Ambrette, and Myrrh. AndrèSimon's Hirondelle carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

This isn't just another oud. Hirondelle nails that sweet spot between floral elegance and a primal, leathery depth, making it surprisingly versatile and genuinely intriguing.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Hirondelle takes flight with a bright, unusual blend of mandarin zest, green violet leaf, and a sunny, slightly sweet sunflower note. The heart blossoms with delicate elderflower and fruity osmanthus, elegantly grounded by a sophisticated black tea. It finally settles into a rich, complex base of soft leather, animalic oud, warm ambrette, and resinous myrrh, creating a compelling and long-lasting trail.
