Identity and Release History

Welcome to the world of Hermès H24, a modern men's fragrance that debuted in 2021 as an eau de toilette.

The name H24 symbolizes the 24 hours in a day, reflecting the dynamic and continuous rhythm of modern life, making this perfume an ideal companion for active men.

Released under the auspices of the legendary French house, Hermès H24 marks a new era in men's perfumery, combining the brand's heritage with innovative accents.

The history of Hermès began in 1837 with a harness workshop, and today the brand is a symbol of impeccable taste and luxury.

H24 continues this tradition by offering a fragrance that reinterprets classic elements in a contemporary way.

This release is not just an addition to the collection but becomes an important milestone, highlighting Hermès' commitment to innovation in scents.

Authors and Influence

The creation of Hermès H24 is credited to two talented perfumers: Christine Nagel and Philippe Mouquet.

Christine Nagel, as the chief perfumer of Hermès, brings her expert approach to modern compositions, often experimenting with synthetic notes to create unique sounds.

Philippe Mouquet adds his skills in fragrance development, ensuring a harmonious blend of elements.

Their collaboration led to the birth of H24, which reflects the brand's contemporary DNA and influences its reputation as an innovator in the perfume industry.

The influence of this fragrance on Hermès is significant: it opens new horizons for men's scents, moving away from traditional woody-leather chords to fresher and more technological combinations.

H24 demonstrates how the brand adapts to changing tastes while preserving its heritage of quality and style.

Positioning and Wearability

Hermès H24 is positioned as a men's fragrance, ideally suited for confident modern men.

Its noticeable trail ensures a long-lasting presence without being overwhelming, making it an excellent choice for the office, dates, or daily wear.

For optimal effect, it is recommended to use 1 to 2 sprays on the skin and 1 to 2 sprays on clothing, allowing the fragrance to unfold naturally and lastingly.

This perfume belongs to the Aromatic and Woody families, giving it a fresh and enduring character.

The note groups include aromatic, white floral, and woody chords, creating a multifaceted composition.

If you're looking for similar fragrances, consider Lazell, Dalley & Co Narcisse and Thera Cosméticos Soniere, which may appeal to fans of H24.

The concentration of eau de toilette provides a light and refreshing sound, ideal for warm seasons or active days.

The fragrance is versatile and suitable for various scenarios, from business meetings to informal events, thanks to its balanced profile.

Pyramid and Development

The composition of Hermès H24 is built on carefully selected notes that together create a dynamic and memorable bouquet.

It starts with invigorating aromatic accents, transitions into a floral heart, and finishes with a warm woody base, ensuring a smooth development on the skin throughout the day.

This fragrance is designed to evolve over time, leaving a trail that speaks of modernity and sophistication.

Description of the composition

Fragrance Pyramid

The note pyramid of Hermès H24 begins with top notes, where clary sage creates a fresh and herbal start, instantly invigorating and attention-grabbing.

In the heart of the fragrance, narcissus unfolds, adding a delicate floral depth and elegance that softens the initial spiciness.

The base part of the composition consists of palisander (rosewood) and sclarene, which together form a warm and stable base: palisander provides a classic woody note, and sclarene, a synthetic component, adds a modern and slightly mineral undertone.

This combination ensures a smooth transition from freshness to longevity, making the fragrance multifaceted and intriguing at all stages of its development.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance.

Today the weather is just great, and I decided to take a stroll to Rive Gauche 😊 What can I say? I like this store, and our perfume community has also expressed their opinions, and I agree with them. Hermes's style is truly preserved here, and the fragrance stands out against the backdrop of faceless luxury brands.

Now about the fragrance itself: it starts with bright and sharp greenery, which I really like, especially in spring, when there's such a lack of fresh herbs and leaves 🌱 Gradually it moves into notes of freshly ironed linen, and I just adore that smell! When clothes are being ironed, I always try to walk by to enjoy that scent 😍

Overall, this is a perfume about cleanliness and white shirts, and I can say it's the best I've tried on this theme. By the way, in the beginning and middle, it reminded me a bit of Aether - such synthetic and urban qualities, so the advertising isn't lying. This was just the first test, my impressions are a bit jumbled, but I definitely like it, and I want to continue getting to know it. I'm curious about the sillage and how long it lasts, but the scent is cool! 🌟

Fifteen years after the release of the iconic Terre, Hermès launched a new fragrance - H24 “A New Dimension of Masculinity” - which has already become a joke in the perfume world, and immediately after its release, the fragrance gathered a lot of dissatisfied people. Most of them pointed their noses at Terre, saying that Jean-Claude Ellena did everything much better and more beautifully. H24 was accused of being chemical and dull, some even said it wasn't long-lasting. But, honestly, the new fragrance isn't bad. And I'm saying this, not being a fan of Nagels, quite the opposite. The composition is modern, but with classic notes. It's a masculine neo-fougere based on ambroxan and herbs. The green accord at the beginning, although consisting of bright rhubarb and sage, even seems delicate. This subtle dustiness makes the start calm and elegant, although quite noticeable. H24 indeed looks a bit pale, but there's a beauty in that. It remains noticeable and has an insane sillage, and the floral-metallic note gives it a daring character. Interestingly, you seem to understand who this fragrance is for, but you don't find the usual masculine olfactory codes. This is its peculiarity, as with all Hermès fragrances. Will it become a new legend - I don't know, but its green freshness and amber-metallic framework definitely deserve attention

This is truly a versatile scent. It's sweet and juicy, with fruity notes that resemble candies. Gradually, the green notes fade, replaced by a more tart, woody, and mineral accord. Overall, it's something fresh, pleasant, and relevant

The fragrance is quite good for an office environment, especially in warmer weather. It's fresh and light, reminiscent of a freshly ironed shirt. It suits both a teacher and an engineer. If you value order and cleanliness, this perfume is definitely for you! 🌼

This scent reminds me of something sad and cold. It smells like old wooden planks, with a slight metallic hint, like buckets made of galvanized steel. There's something mineral and fresh about it, but this freshness seems too modern. Overall, the fragrance isn't bad, it stands out, but it doesn't delve into complex notes 😔

Jean-Claude Ellena, the creator of the famous Terre d'Hermès, led the perfume division of this fashion house since 2004. During this time, he released many memorable and minimalistic fragrances, and also launched the Les Colognes, Les Jardins, and Hermessence collections. He truly reinterpreted the brand's heritage and opened a new chapter in its history. In 2016, Christine Nagel, known for her hits like Jo Malone and Miss Dior Chérie, took over as the head perfumer. She created fragrances for Hermès such as Galop d'Hermès and Twilly d’Hermès.<br><br>Working on H24, Christine was inspired by Véronique Nichanian's ready-to-wear collections. The new fragrance conveys elegance and practicality, as well as the traditions of the fashion house. The perfumer says it's important for her to create volume and texture in the composition. She loves when fragrances are compared to velvet or silk. The number 24 in the name refers to the address of the Hermès boutique in Paris, which has existed since 1889. The H24 bottle was designed by artist Philippe Mouquet, and it looks simply gorgeous. An empty bottle can be refilled, and the packaging is fully recyclable.<br><br>Christine compares herself to a watchmaker who disassembles a mechanism to understand how it works. She used ingredients unusual for luxury perfumery, such as clary sage, which gives the fragrance woody and vegetal notes. H24 has a fougère structure with a light melon nuance, and in the base - woody notes and amber. Despite some drawbacks, this fragrance is really light and pleasant. It allows you to take a deep breath and escape the daily hustle and bustle

Well, Hermès, this is just a flop. For some, it might seem "normal": modern, urban, with mineral notes and all that, but not for a brand like this. In the end, everything looks quite mediocre, nothing grabs you, just a feeling of emptiness. Again, this synthetic minerality with green and spicy accents, and the longevity, as always, is excellent. But Escentric Molecules 01 Iris - that's a completely different level, there the minerality is truly justified. From Hermès, you want something more, not this 😕

For the first time, I can call Christine Nagel's work the fragrance of the year. I have no bias towards her; I just speak my mind if I like something, and if I don't, I say that too. H24 is the brand's first flagship men's fragrance in fifteen years, ever since Terre d’Hermès was released. "Terre" has become a true classic, like Encre Noire by Lalique, and it's hard to say yet whether this "new dimension of masculinity" can surpass Jean-Claude Ellena's fragrance.

The composition represents a clash of nature and technology, and it seems the press release is finally telling the truth. H24 is good both in its chord composition and how it's assembled: the perfumer managed to create a balance between the semantic centers and correctly distribute the load, giving volume to each accord. The result is a cold, steel-like electric ray that glides smoothly through stormy clouds of sage and rhubarb, as well as a soft, pale green light where steam billows, strict and clear lines - all of this is H24.

The fragrance, of course, is created for a wide audience, and it's understandable to them. At first glance, a green amber-aromatic neofougère might not surprise. But what an elegant assembly! Every element found its place and time. All masculine perfumery codes are present here. Its amber impulsiveness is pleasantly felt in the air movement from passersby, and you want to inhale it again and again. A clear, clean, smart, and understandable fragrance 🌿

H24 is a real discovery for men's perfumery this year. Unlike the bland Burberry Hero and Defy by Calvin Klein, here the main thing is the fragrance itself, not its packaging or advertising. Christine Nagel showed that men in 2021 can choose more than just standard woody notes and shaving scents. H24 is a modern, smart, and technical fragrance. It really could become a worthy successor to Terre d’Hermès. Open new horizons of perception! )))

It starts with sharp green grass that leaves a bitter aftertaste. Gradually, the scent transforms into something resembling a freshly ironed linen shirt, but with an overheated iron. In the background, there's a barely perceptible sage. Longevity is only about 4 hours, no sillage, but overall it's something strange and too urban
5/5

The first fragrance after Terre is really interesting. Spring notes are noticeable, narcissus is clearly present. Although in the description they mention something about fabric and wool, which is a bit strange. But, in general, it doesn't matter, the main thing is to try it and understand what's what. Bandy, as they say, will show! :)

You look at the pyramid, and there are flowers, grass, trees. You expect the scent to be fresh and natural, but in reality, you get dead synthetics. Some fragrances might remind you of laundry detergents or care products, but this one - it's just something else. It's not organic, not alive. You can smell metal, the bitterness of dry herbs in the background, and even the smell of burnt wiring. It's like you have a short circuit in your outlet or a cheap hairdryer broke. If the perfumer has nothing to do and wants to experiment, let them do it in silence and wear this horror themselves. I don't understand how one can go out in public with this, and constantly at that. Bravo, Hermès, another rip-off for an exorbitant price

The fragrance is completely unimpressive. The scent reminds me of a cheap cologne you can buy for 200 rubles, just a bit more diluted. The longevity leaves much to be desired; I apply it before going out for lunch, and then I don't smell anything anymore. Honestly, there's nothing more to add 😔
