## Top reviews
- ★4/5 — Spring — Casual — "Futuristic, masculine cold damp earth and rose done in a clean, modern way. Bladerunner 

A bit peppery with a little synthetic sweetness in the opening. Quickly a slight grayish, mineralic, damp earthiness appears, casting a kind of veil over a fairly prominent rose and a cold, slightly plasticky incense note in the mid. A synthesized patchouli derivative woody base with ambroxan. This is a fairl…"
- ★4/5 — Spring, Summer — "Just to say I think the reviewer below was smelling something different to me, I get no rose or patchouli in here? I'm a fan of Ambroxan for the record, although obvious and seemingly flavour of the month at the moment, it's a versatile base for fragrances to go in any direction. It can be clean and masculine, the base for a citrus/aquatic (as it is here) or even warming, underneath more oriental…"
- ★4/5 — Spring, Fall — "The overall profile of Hermann is deeply up my alley: damp earth with green elements (galbanum, black currant, vetiver), an unusual rose oil, incense, and a mysterious sheer, glassy, watery quality that’s obviously synthetic and hard to describe. Like a lot of ELdO scents, it’s challenging and paradoxical: it smells simultaneously very natural, even dirty (wet soil, decaying leaves, crushed and wi…"
- ★4/5 — Spring, Summer — "Opens as a lovely peppery rose, and dries into a woody acquatic floral. A very light damp earthy Petrichor supports.

After some hours the darkness of the aquatic settles and the rose appears again.

Lovely scent, akin to a lighter ADP with more floral."
- ★3/5 — Spring — "Maybe it's my nose, I think it is, but when a perfume contains ambroxide, I can't usually get past it, with one or two exceptions. Sadly this falls into the broader category of aggressive ambroxide nightmares. I can see why it might appeal, and it's certainly less obnoxious than Sauvage, but it has the heacachey, chemical mire I've come to detest in designer and niche fragrances alike."
- ★3/5 — Fall, Winter — "Melted menthol pastil covers roses and Patchouli One perfume more which was a random sample for me and I didn't know anything about it before trying it for the first time. Because of that it surprised me with the powerful opening and the overall feeling of uniqueness which, however, subsided a bit after a few wearings. The reason why it's so unique to me is, that this kind of scent profile is not…"
