Italian Summer Dream
The dose really makes the poison here. Used sparingly, it’s a dream reminiscent of the highest quality Italian soap and powder. Absolutely unisex. Well-groomed, clean, elegant, not sweet, not overly feminine, unique ... never received more compliments! Could it be that it evokes different images in a man's mind when smelled? ???? Easy to wear and suitable for everything. I love it! :)

Extraordinary
A lot has already been said about Eau d'Hermès, yet I feel the need to contribute something as well.
It is a special fragrance that has captivated me ever since I first smelled it. The opening is very fresh, yet powerful, classically citrusy. What fascinates me completely is the quickly intensifying cinnamon note. This blend of a cinnamon citrus fruit with a bouquet of green flowers and grasses knocks me off my feet every time and excites me. This gives the fragrance an incredible depth and, although still fresh, an underlying warmth. A certain powderiness cannot be denied either.
In this phase, EDH lingers on me for a long time. Over time, more spices emerge, and the whole fragrance becomes warmer, almost oriental-gourmand. Vanilla and leather join in, the cinnamon remains, but takes a back seat.
Often, an animalistic note is mentioned here; I can understand it. EDH has something that makes one think of sun-warmed skin, which I find very sexy.
For me, it fits perfectly with a date on a warm summer evening, with good, light food, cool white wine, and stimulating conversations. You move closer together, the first kisses follow, a last drink, and you can't wait to continue the evening elsewhere.
EDH is the stylish companion for extraordinary evenings that remain in memory for a long time.

Unexpectedly Convincing
This is my first comment here and since no one has taken on this fragrance yet, I’ll seize the opportunity.

I stumbled upon this cologne by chance in Paris. At le Bon Marche, there was a promotional area for the brand during the Christmas season. Very cool setup, with a diffuser for each fragrance that released the respective scent at the push of a button.
A very nice and knowledgeable lady from the perfume house told me the background story. Three young perfume enthusiasts decided to create a new, cool perfume house in Paris. Hence ex nihilo... Latin for out of nothing.
She then sprayed Cologne 352 on me as the signature scent of the house. I then moved on.

But all the while, this incredibly light and fresh scent lingered in my nose; I kept smelling my wrist and had to turn back to take another look at it.
Back at the stand, I asked for more information about the fragrance and inquired about the price, 260,- € for 100ml ... Okay, not exactly cheap, rather the opposite.
So I wandered off again and continued through the department store, out onto the street into the Conran Shop ... Still constantly having my wrist to my nose ... Okay, I have to have this! Back and bagged.

And I have not regretted it for a second; I love this scent and wear it every day!

Now to the scent itself:
It starts upon spraying with a light, transparent yet very intense lily of the valley, underlaid with a green, grassy note. But alongside, there is something powdery, deep, and slightly warm from the very beginning. It is by no means one-dimensional. There are clearly hints of typical colognes, probably due to the included petitgrain. But the scent does not smell old-fashioned; it is distinctly high-quality.
Somehow, it eludes many categorizations for me; it is both elegant and sporty, light yet also intense. It lasts for hours on me and even longer on clothing. It is never intrusive, yet it surrounds you like a veil. It is perfect for me and wearable at any time.
Later, woody notes come in, and it becomes a bit warmer, with light musk detectable.

Somehow, I feel like I have found my scent with it. Unexpectedly.
