H24 Eau de Parfum by Hermès

I never understood why it took me so long to find it. It smells like those transition days between winter and spring, when the sun warms up and vegetation begins to release its scent. Plus, it has that freshly laundered clothes and hot metal sensation, yet it’s not a situational fragrance; it creates a bubble of serene cleanliness. It’s the shirt scent: clean, stoic, and assured. So simple yet sophisticated. Although designed for work, its versatility is total. It’s a well-rounded fragrance where what stands out most is its originality: hard to find anything with its profile.

Excellent fragrance, lasts as long as a Kenzo. Clean, versatile, elegant and sometimes depressing. For some reason, it reminds me of Gris Charnel by BDK, perhaps I’m wrong.

I bought it blind and I’d say don’t do it, not because it’s bad, but because it’s a unique aroma. Very green; the moss fascinates me, it’s like going to the bottom of a forest and smelling a tree covered in moss. From now on, it’s one I can never be without, and I’m young, so don’t let age stop you from trying it.

Exquisite. A green, cheerful, airy, energetic and crisp fragrance. It opens with an undeclared juicy pear note that lasts about 15 minutes, then becomes more bitter yet vibrant. It’s one of those that puts you in a good mood in the morning. Once dry, it smells floral, very mossy, woody and damp. It has that metallic and cold sensation that pricks. A modern Fougère. Longevity: 10 hours, 8 perfect and 2 more close to the skin. Sillage: 3 hours moderate, then a personal bubble. Trail: moderate for 3 hours, then soft. Unisex masculine, for a calm and proper man. A perfect signature fragrance for autumn, spring and summer, preferably summer evenings. I bought it in January 2025, so my perfume had been concentrating for 3 years. The fixation is brutal. The atomiser sprays a lot of fragrance; it’s very potent, so 4 or 5 sprays are enough; don’t overapply.

H24 EDP is like that man who doesn’t need to raise his voice to be heard. Always punctual, impeccably dressed, with a calm gaze and an undeniable elegance that is perceived. From the first spray, it transports me to an urban garden in spring, freshly rained upon, where green and woody notes intertwine with a clean and futuristic air. The sage and narcissus add freshness and modernity, while the scleranthus (that subtle metallic nod so Hermès) gives the touch of originality without excess. In the office, it’s impeccable: distinguished enough to be noticed, but without interrupting any meeting. It lasts on clothes all day. On skin, about 7-8 hours with an elegant and moderate projection that leaves a mark without imposing. This isn’t a club or immediate conquest fragrance. It’s for those who know that true style doesn’t shout; it whispers with confidence.

I absolutely love it; it smells incredibly green and natural, plus very clean. Out of the three available, this is the only one I own and my favourite. The opening is sparkling and intense, while it dries down to something elegant, like a crisp white shirt, always with that hint of grass. It wakes you up and refreshes, with very good longevity to keep feeling so fresh.

H24 EDP is basically the evolution of the EDT, though the differences are subtle. While the EDT is light, fresh, and almost ethereal, the EDP has more presence and longevity without losing that metallic and green essence. The big difference lies in the longevity and the prominence of the green notes: in the EDT they fade quickly leaving the metallics, but in the EDP they stay vivid throughout, giving it more body. The EDP isn’t dark nor does it change the DNA; it simply adds more depth. The original is lighter, ideal for heat or spring, whereas the EDP suits cooler weather better, adding herbal warmth and longevity. In terms of projection, the EDP outperforms the EDT, being more solid during the first hour without being overwhelming; the EDT is more subtle, almost a background note. Both are similar, but the EDP is the obvious choice for those seeking something more durable and potent. If you prefer the fleeting freshness of the EDT, it remains a valid option. In summary, the EDP is more mature and long-lasting, ideal for those who enjoyed the original but want more intensity. Personally, I’ve preferred the EDP and would buy it over the EDT. As always, test before spending on something so personal.

Pleasantly surprised, given that I’ve seen quite negative reviews. Without going into details, it stands out for its green opening, with that hard metallic note for an hour, then moving into oakmoss. A clean fragrance, though not at the level of the EDT. Perfect for the office all year round except on very hot or very cold days. It could be a daily wear fragrance in autumn and spring.

Simply exquisite and original. Elegant, intriguing, and with a spectacular opening. It’s no exaggeration to say it smells like a niche fragrance at a commercial price.

A distinct and very original scent, green and alive. Good longevity and when it dries down it has a very particular smell, like a hair iron.

DannyAngel’s description fits, though I find it more herbal and mossy once dried, a pure green. It was a delightful surprise, a white thrush amidst so much designer and niche drivel nowadays. It defies current trends: it starts bitter, with a slight sweetness in the heart that I find excessive, but as it dries, the evernil (a mossy molecule) really shines. It’s a formal fragrance that conveys seriousness and maturity. Longevity and projection exceed the average for designer EDPs. The best part is that it’s new and hasn’t yet suffered a reformulation, making it a good time to buy, although Hermès releases are usually faithful. In short: green, mature, and serious.

The H24 EDP is aromatic, herbal, and woody. The opening is like the EDT but less bright; some say it smells of green banana and I partly agree, though here the metallic notes are less strong and the green notes are more potent. Still, it gives that dry-cleaner freshness. It’s timeless, ideal for the office or school. I wore it for 8 hours with regular-to-low projection. They are unique: you can use them where other herbals have failed, as they don’t resemble anything else.

It shares the DNA of the EDT but amplifies the moss and reduces that characteristic metallic tone. It feels vintage yet updated, very pleasant though a bit dense for the first two hours, very well balanced so as not to overwhelm. It smells like a proper man who knows how to walk upright. It’s not for ‘bros’, but for those who know what they want. Can it be layered with the EDT? Yes, the EDP is ideal for autumn/winter or rainy days, while the EDT is more versatile in mild seasons. The best part is that they can be layered for a balanced, all-terrain fragrance. It lasts over 8 hours, with a consistent sillage for the first two hours, then drops to a discreet but atmospheric tone.

H.R. Giger but with vegetable anatomy instead of animal.

I think it’s an EXCEPTIONAL fragrance. I like the EDT, but I believe with this EDP and the Cristine oakmoss they’ve hit the mark. It smells clean, urban, modern, and distinct. I certainly recommend it.
