Terre d'Hermès

THE CREATION Terre d’Hermès tells the story of man’s relationship with the earth, his humble and harmonious dialogue with nature and the elements. In 2009, Jean-Claude Ellena infused Terre d’Hermès with a new density by creating Terre d’Hermès Parfum. OLFACTORY NOTES A warm, woody fragrance, Terre d’Hermès Parfum combines enveloping cedar and sparkling grapefruit with a radiant note of shiso. THE OBJECT At its base, the bottle rests on a more visible orange H – echoing the deeper colour of the fragrance – which leaves its imprint on the earth. At the top, the light is reflected by the bottle’s metal shoulders. THE HERMÈS DETAIL When held in the hand, the Terre d’Hermès Parfum bottle unveils its many details: the house’s iconic saddle nail, the sliding cover used to release the spray, etc. Created by designer Philippe Mouquet, it is inspired by a bottle in a travel vanity case that is conserved at the Emile Hermès museum. Terre d’Hermès narrates the relationship between man and earth, his humble and harmonious dialogue with the elements and nature. Terre d’Hermès is the perfume that connects man to his origins, to the source of his creative power.
