THE CREATION In 2006, Jean-Claude Ellena created Terre d'Hermès, an Eau that brings man back to his origins, to the source of his creative power. Terre d'Hermès tells the story of man's relationship with terra, his respectful and harmonious dialogue with nature and the elements. Since 2016, Christine Nagel, maître-parfumeur Hermès, has focused on Terre, exploring its new potentials. THE OLFACTORY NOTES Mineral and woody fragrance, Terre d'Hermès combines the power of cedar and the brilliance of grapefruit with a vibrant note of silica from una. THE OBJECT From una comes the terra: the bottle rests on an orange H base, which leaves a mark on the ground. On the other side, the sky: light reflects off the metallic shoulders. Between the two, the transparency of water. THE DETAIL HERMÈS Una turned in hand, the Terre d'Hermès bottle reveals numerous details: the emblematic “clou de selle” of the house and the sliding cap that hides the spray. Created by designer Philippe Mouquet, it is inspired by a travel bottle kept at the Emile Hermès museum. Terre d'Hermès tells the story of man's connection with terra, his respectful and balanced dialogue with nature and the elements. Terre d'Hermès is the fragrance that brings man back to his origins, to the source of his creative power.
