The house

More from Hermès

Hermès is a French house whose story begins in 1837, and its perfumes share the same quiet confidence: clean lines, nothing shouted. Citrus leads most of them, grapefruit, lemon and bergamot, before settling on cedar, vetiver and patchouli, with ginger or pepper for a dry spark. Terre d'Hermès is the natural first pick, citrus and fresh spice over earthy wood. Un Jardin Sur Le Nil feels green and floral with a citrus edge, while Eau des Merveilles plays woody and peppery. Try two side by side and you will hear the family likeness.
