Eau D'orange Verte Cologne

With the Colognes collection, Hermes expands a territory of olfactive expression inaugurated in 1979 with its first Cologne, later baptised Eau D'orange Verte Perfume, characterized by its refinement and authenticity. Figurative and generous expressions of instant pleasure, the Hermes Colognes offer a series of material-based olfactive vignettes. Through the gaze of Jean-Claude Ellena, Hermes affirms its own interpretation of the Cologne style, between artistic sensitivity and traditional craftsmanship. Eau D'orange Verte Perfume: a founding Cologne created by Francoise Caron in 1979 and inspired by the odour of moist, rose-scented morning undergrowth, this fragrance has asserted itself as an emblem of Hermes ever since and is distinguished by its unique freshness. It was devised as a burst of citrus touches, with orange to the fore, amidst zests and leaves, lemon, mandarin, mint and blackcurrant buds. Its complexity is revealed in a unique vapor composed of oak moss and patchouli. The nose behind this fragrance is Francoise Caron.
