The new perfume Hermès H24 Herbes Vives
Released in 2024, H24 Herbes Vives follows Hermès's 2021 fragrance H24, but this time the focus is on a green, natural, herbal character. The scent was created by Hermès in-house perfumer Christine Nagel, who was inspired by the joyful smell of nature after rain. This is no ordinary perfume – it is a finely crafted aromatic experience that takes you straight into the greenery of summer. In this new creation Hermès has gone a step further, offering a fresher and more invigorating scent that suits warm days perfectly.
The fragrance was created to celebrate simplicity and naturalness while keeping the luxury and refinement that are so typical of Hermès. H24 Herbes Vives is not just a scent but a reminder of the beauty and power of nature in everyday life.
Fragrance notes and aroma profile
The brilliance of H24 Herbes Vives lies in its composition. Hermès has chosen the ingredients carefully to create something unique and memorable:
– A fresh bouquet of herbs – savory, sorrel, hemp and parsley – gives the fragrance a calming yet invigorating herbal character.
– The sweetness of pear sorbet and a slightly watery feel add a touch of fruity balance to the composition.
– In the base, Physcool® stands out – an innovative cooling molecule that leaves a pleasant sense of freshness on the skin and recalls a light summer breeze.
This combination creates an airy, light and truly distinctive scent that is hard to mistake for any other perfume. Although Hermès presents it as a men's fragrance, its lightness makes it suitable for women too, for those who want to speak of naturalness and purity through scent.
