beautiful refreshing scent, but doesnt last long. In my opinion one of the best citrusy summer scent smell wise.
Opens well, then within 5 minutes I get the same synthetic banana smell I get from other Hermès perfumes. Lesson learnt.
Well not wanting to jump the gun or be sally come lately to this release, I'm gonna give my opinions after a brief encounter with it. This flanker is Nagel taking on the Terre d'Hermes backbone and stamping her own thing on it. Is that necessarily a good thing? The jury is out on this and H24. I don't hate them, in fact it's a style of perfume I quite like, this simplistic, freshness and white musky, mist and it's a smart move for Hermes keeping their aesthetic reasonably un tarnished while not having to resort to the kind of bubblegum, mega loud, crowd pleasing of many other designer brands. This opens with a lemony grapefruit and it's a turbo bitter accord at that, I like, and thought to myself lemony, grapefruit wouldn't be surprised if they list citron....they have. Then it's a mixture of TdH genetics and growing orange spiced woody accord but really a faint spectre in the presence of a much more dominant, misty, musky thing you get in H24. When the fragrance has settled on skin the Terre d'Hermes reference is much more apparent than the opening two hours which are extremely face puckering citrus and steam iron, possibly some floral accord. Then in the depths and I mean when it's reduced to a skin scent, it's not particularly soft, it's quite woody and masculine and I can still smell the remnants on my arm the following day. This isn't because it's a horribly loud, tenacious, spiky thing like a Sauvage, it's much quieter than that, it's almost metallic, skin like, mildly sweaty/spicy, wood remains, it really reminds me of something my dad used to wear, seriously. I can't hate it. It's a take on an absolute classic, I mean I think she did the parfum or whatever, which is fine (oh no was it the vetiver version?) and now there's this, I suppose it's the end of an era and things have to move on. I don't necessarily understand discontinuing Eau tres Fraiche which is a great flanker and in many ways an even bigger departure from the original even than this is, but something about that felt really right, and I'm just not as enamoured with this, right now that is. Like H24, It may need time and proper wear, I suspect it will.
