Angel's Share On The Rocks – Icy Freshness, Citrus, and the Warmth of Cognac
Angel's Share On The Rocks is an Eau de Parfum by BY KILIAN PARIS, part of the The Liquors collection and created by perfumer Benoist Lapouza. Inspired by the way Kilian Hennessy enjoys cognac — served over ice — the fragrance offers a fresh and contemporary interpretation of the signature Angels' Share DNA.
The composition opens with the distinctive On the Rocks accord, blending grapefruit, lemon, and bergamot with bitter orange and aldehydic nuances. The opening feels bright, citrusy, and almost icy, creating the sensation of a chilled drink served over ice.
At the heart, the unmistakable cognac essence emerges, retaining the rich, warm, and subtly sweet character of the original Angels' Share. Cinnamon adds gentle spicy warmth, while the contrast with the fresh citrus notes makes the composition feel lighter and more contemporary.
The dry down reveals tonka bean and oak, bringing back the characteristic warmth and depth of the Angels' Share signature. Tonka bean provides creamy, subtly sweet softness, while oak evokes the wooden barrels in which fine cognac is aged. The result is an elegant balance between a cool citrus opening and a warm woody finish.
Angel's Share On The Rocks is a fragrance of contrasts — sparkling and icy in the opening, warm and boozy at the heart, then smooth, woody, and ambery in the dry down. Compared with the original Angels' Share, it feels fresher, airier, and more suited to warmer weather while preserving the sensual character of cognac.
An excellent choice for lovers of citrus, cognac, tonka bean, cinnamon, and elegant woody fragrances. Particularly appealing in spring and summer, as well as for anyone who loves the Angels' Share DNA and wants a fresher, more modern interpretation of it.
