Two new men are becoming faces of fragrances: Fendi wil... Go
After the Mediterranean, the banks of the Nile and the Indian countryside, Hermès invites us to 24, Faubourg Saint-Honoré, Paris, their flagship store. Hovering unexpectedly above the House of Hermès, in a secret rooftop garden, can be found an apple tree, a pear tree, a magnolia and plenty of “wild plants”. Jean-Claude Elena, the in-house perfumer, describes the smell that rises from this garden as, ‘the scent of sunlight and pleasure… a fruity botanical floral’.
A fruity-floral composition with a green dimension, the fragrance opens with notes of apple and green grass, plus a peppery effect as well. The heart twines magnolia with a rose tonality. The base reveals waves of damp earth and oak moss (evernia prunastri).
Eau de Toilette 1.7 and 3.4 oz.; Body lotion, 6.8 oz.
You’ll recognize the collection’s signature bottle, with a green-hued base this time. The package is graced with a drawing of the city of Paris, including a view over the House of Hermès’s rooftop garden.
