Strange but beautiful.

It's a strange smell. Dominant pistachio with bug spray. Weird but true, it's a bit of a nice smell. This fragrance needs sun and warmth. Here in the Netherlands it is now cold, rainy and windy. Everything this fragrance does not stand for.
The strong pistachio note quickly disappears and the scent becomes more citrusy in a bug spray way and the dried grass makes the scent even more balanced. But again, in a very nice way. Christine Nagel knows how to create a beautiful and certainly not everyday perfume. She knows how to take Hermes fragrances to a new level. Tribute!

Hermes Surprised me..but not in a great way

Well...this is new.

Normally when I smell a Hermes fragrance I am instantly rushing to come on to forums, subreditts, Instagram, comments sections to slavishly-simp for the Designer brand I believe to greater than Tom Ford, Dior and Gucci.

But not this time. I am stumped. The opening of this I like and it would get the right kind of response from me, but the mid and dry down just leave me disappointed. I am not a fan of it. I don't like the scent of Pistachio, I like to eat them, but the smell...nah

For me the transition from the very clean very juicy and mouth-watering citruses that Hermes seem to capture and utilise. Beautiful. But then along comes the pistachio, drowned in olive oil trampling through this garden with its shit covered boots.

I really don't get the use of the pistachio, it has a weird tangy-musty three day unwashed stank that I cannot get over. I wish I could place this beside the other Hermes fragrances that I like.

I can see why others like this and I don't think they're wrong, its a fragrance that I wished I liked. I don't.

The salad dressing of my dreams, but do i want to smell like this?

After a sharp citrus opening, I got very pure and realistic lime, olive oil, hazelnut and pistachio’s from this. Delicious, really, I would definitely like to eat this, on a salad or with greek yogurt and oranges. The only problem is: I don’t know whether I want to smell like (even a really delicious) light meal!

3 sprays on my wrist lasted about 5 hours, with occasional little clouds of aromatic (and sometimes overly sharp) lime with pistachio waving hello during the first two hours. The dry down is full of extra virgin olive oil with a hint of sweetness (like there is a tiny drop of honey in my vinaigrette).

An italian salad

This is a very weird one. I don't feel like I've smelled anything quite like this before, however I can definitely imagine a vacation in Italy, eating a salad that smells exactly like this everyday for breakfast. I can definitely smell pistachio, grass, and the olive wood in this. Kind of an oily, slightly sweet, but mainly fresh scent. I also believe there is some kind of citrus in this, like a lime or lemon. This would fit in any situation, except maybe a funeral.

Lasts about 7-8 hours for me, with moderate projection.

For the price I do not feel this is a scent that is worth it, unless you REALLY like it.

I would suggest you to try it before you buy it, see if you'd want to wear this everyday for the rest of your life or not, otherwise the price i just cannot justify.

Cozy dry straw on a lazy summer afternoon

I'm testing this one on my skin at the moment and I find it very cute and clean. To my nose this perfume has a lazy summer day vibe. I put it on and went for a walk, it is sunny but not really hot here today. It felt weak during my walk. Now back home, my body temperature has risen a bit and it is performing much better. I like the fact this garden is more about dry straw than green grass. I appreciate its discreet warmth, nutty but not too sweet dry down after a bright sunny citrus start. Different and beautiful makes me long for summer, even more.
