Fabulista Adores: Terre d'Hermès for Men

image I can tell you about the component fragrance of Hermès' latest eau de toilette for men - vegetable and mineral juice, orange (specifically for Hermès by Albert Vieille), grapefruit, flint, pepper, bay rose, geranium, patchouli, benzoin and vetiver with Atlas cedar as its central note.

But that is underselling this fine product.

Each breath of Terre is pure terracotta - the colour and the element. Layers of fruity spicy and woody scents reveal themselves progressively and simultaneously to create the ultimate fragrance that is at once clean and crisp as it is enveloping and sophisticated.

It transports you to an orchard of Seville oranges with cedar wood smoldering in the background. It is as delicious as it is smoky. The scent is a wonderfully earthy masculine concoction for the modern, urban male - sexy; sensual; confident.
