Hermes d'Orange Vert

Mostly bright and zesty, like fresh orange or lemon peel. Underneath that, cool and green, like herbs crushed between your fingers.

It opens on amalfi lemon, cassis and mandarin orange, moves through mandarin orange and mint, and settles on amber, oakmoss and patchouli.

• lemon: sharp, bright citrus. The most cutting of the citrus notes
• cassis: blackcurrant: tart and purple, with a green, faintly sulphurous bite

It fades fairly quickly and sits close to the skin after the first hour.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
