Terre d'Hermès is a fragrance launched by French luxury brand Hermès in March 2006.
[1] Jean Claude Ellena, who was formerly the master perfumier for Hermès, claims that his inspiration for Terre d'Hermès was French author Jean Giono, who, Ellena claims "He is a man who loves the richness of nature".
[2] As a result of this, many of the scents found within the fragrance are vegetal and mineral based, including Cedar, Patchouli and Vetiver.
[4] In 2018, a new variation called Eau Intense Vétiver, created by Christine Nagel was released, and was described as being fresher than the original.
[16] Terre d'Hermès won a variety of awards from GQ magazine, including 'Launch of the decade' and the Readers Favourite fragrance in 2009.
