From The Hermès Fall-Winter 1992/93 Seasonal Scarf Booklet: Such regions are pure; nothing matters except the essential, to keep moving, and in this landscape of frozen sun, throughout the six-month-long winters, color fights ceaselessly to escape the domination of whiteness. All this happens without commentary. In the silence, one can perceive the panting of the sled dogs, indispensable companions in these immensities worthy of the pens of Jack London and James Oliver Curwood.

From The Hermès Fall-Winter 2000/01 Seasonal Scarf Booklet: A continent fixed at the extremities of the world, where ice prevails. Life there is shown up in sharp relief. On the frozen wastes anything that moves is an event. And in the arctic silence, voices resonate: the yapping of husky dogs, the growling of bears whose pallor is disturbing, the barking of seals who give man food and clothing. Soundless voices also of the stars, who rain down in their thousands on the ice floes and who, in the dark polar night, seem to be like a silent celebration of the human faculty of adaptation.
