To comprehend the remarkable nature of Hermès' creation of a new fragrance, one must acknowledge that the French Maison approaches all endeavors with meticulous consideration.
Consequently, Hermès has thoughtfully introduced H24, a new cologne crafted by Christine Nagel, who stated, “To develop this new Hermès signature fragrance, I had to explore alternative, less conventional avenues, departing from the typical woodiness associated with men’s scents.”

Primarily, the designation. Hermès H24 subtly acknowledges the duration Madame Nagel has collaborated with male creative director Veronique Nichanian, as well as the designation of the men’s ready-to-wear collection. A concept for a fragrance that embodies a tactile quality in addition to its olfactory characteristics.
The outcome of this collaboration was the incorporation of a component that, as Madame Nagel noted, transforms Hermès H24, elevating it beyond the realm of a typical woody men’s fragrance.
The ingredient is a synthetic compound called sclarene, reminiscent of the time both women spent in a tailoring business where the aroma of heated chemicals lingered. The nuanced olfactory delight, characterized by a metallic chemical aroma, defines the unique bouquet of Hermès H24.
It is a bouquet of Hermès H24. It commences in a gratifyingly recognizable masculine manner with floral Clary sage that is both enveloping and seductive. Narcissus, also referred to as the daffodil, is subsequently incorporated for its verdant and crisp softness. Notably, Rose Wood — a rare element — is utilized. Although numerous perfumers have employed it, Madame Nagel effectively utilizes its revitalizing vitality and freshness as the woody foundation of Hermès H24.
The Timeless Allure of Hermès H24 Herbaceous, woody, and featuring a pronounced metallic undertone, the exquisite fragrance is encased in a design by Philippe Mouquet—an embodiment of our preference for perfumes that visually reflect their olfactory essence, tactile in nature.
Vivacious, dynamic, and contemporary. Hermès H24 is available for purchase at Hermès Liat Towers, Hermès Marina Bay Sands, Hermès Takashimaya, Takashimaya Department Store, and Hermes.com.
