Hermès Terre d'Hermès

THE CREATION
In 2006, Jean-Claude Ellena created Terre d'Hermès, a perfume that connects men with their origins and the source of their creative power. Terre d'Hermès describes the relationship between man and the earth. Its dialogue with nature and the elements is characterised by modesty and harmony.
Since 2016, Christine Nagel, perfumer for the House of Hermès, has been exploring the Terre fragrance line to discover new ways of interpreting it.

THE FRAGRANCE NOTES
The Terre d'Hermès fragrance with mineral and woody accents combines the power of cedar and the effervescence of grapefruit with the vibrant aroma of flint.

THE OBJECT
An orange H is emblazoned on the underside, symbolising the anchoring in the earth. At the top, the light is reflected by the metal on the shoulders of the bottle. And in between, between heaven and earth, the perfectly clear water.

THE HERMÈS DETAIL
On closer inspection, the Terre d'Hermès bottle reveals numerous details, such as the iconic "Clou de Selle" saddle nail and the sliding cap that releases the spray button, etc.
It was created by the designer Philippe Mouquet and is modelled on the flacon of a travel accessory that is kept in the Émile Hermès Museum.

In order for men's perfume to really come into its own, it is always sprayed very sparingly and directly onto the skin. The chosen fragrance is quickly released through body heat. If you use a spray bottle, the distance should be around 20 cm. The fine spray mist is not rubbed off and dries on the skin. As the spray mist rises from the bottom upwards, the skin is always perfumed from the bottom upwards. Ideally, the body should be prepared with an odourless body lotion before perfuming. The fragrances in the men's perfume will cling to the lipids in the lotion, ensuring a longer-lasting fragrance experience.
