Brief Explanation

To demonstrate the depth and uniqueness of Hennessy X.O. we wrote an oneiric movie that aims to show in a metaphoric and symbolic way its taste. We decided to visualise how it tastes through seven chapters that define the succession of flavours you will experience. But instead of doing a classical film that is based on logic, we collaborated with Palme d’or winning director Nicolas Winding Refn to imagine a movie as mystical and impactful as the blend of the cognac. Thus we created a film which goes beyond the codes of traditional luxury and breaks away from classical elegance, expressing instead in a modern way the depth and uniqueness of the X.O. blend.
