About This Perfume
Essential by Hackett London is a Aromatic Fougere fragrance for men. Essential was launched in 2022. Essential was created by Tim Gage and Christian Provenzano. Top notes are Bergamot and Pink Pepper; middle notes are Lavender and Pineapple; base notes are Patchouli, Tonka Bean and Amber. Hackett London Essential finds the perfect balance between heritage and modernity, redefining the scent of British refinement for the man of today. English lavender is combined with fresh pineapple middle notes, with pink pepper and bergamot top notes as well. The intense base is made of amber, tonka beans and patchouli. The bottle's design is inspired by the art of tailoring in a classy ink blue tone with the cap drawn from the model of a traditional antique bobbin spool. It is available as a 50 and 100 ml Eau de Parfum.
