H24 Herbes Vives Eau de Parfum
They say: A new Hermès fragrance, this grassy release is the third piece in the H24 collection. This cologne features scents of fresh herbs, pear granita, and menthol-leaning molecular fiscours.
we say: A fresh, wearable, modern cologne designed as a men’s fragrance inspired by “urban nature after the rain.” Although definitely masculine, the pear granita’s green notes and subtle sweetness give this refillable release a unisex appeal.
