THE CREATION
Terre d’Hermès Eau Givrée explores a new territory, where freshness and power interact. “An icy cloak fertilises the earth, exalting it with new and vibrant strength.” Christine Nagel, Hermès perfumer.
OLFACTORY NOTES
Terre d’Hermès Eau Givrée Eau de Parfum combines the vigour of citron and the incisive freshness of juniper berry with the power of Timut pepper. The striking sensation of an icy breeze is juxtaposed with the generosity of the woody, mineral notes characteristic of Terre d’Hermès.
THE OBJECT
As if cut from ice, the object is sleek and limpid. Frosted glass and brushed aluminium evoke the notion of frost covering the earth. The H on its base is a subtle reference to the ancestry of a now-cult object.
THE HERMÈS DETAIL
When held in the hand, the Terre d’Hermès Eau Givrée bottle unveils its many details: the house’s iconic saddle nail and its metal shoulders that reflect the light. Created by designer Philippe Mouquet, it is inspired by a bottle in a travel vanity case that is conserved at the Emile Hermès museum.
