H24 Herbes Vives

starts similar to H24, the fresh uplifting accord... goes into a green and floral heart, while staying fresh...this is a masterful blend of fresh, green and floral notes, with a hint of soapiness unlike the first two this is unisex

Very interesting and unique take on green notes, super grassy stuff. I'm considering adding it to my collection.

This one's pretty bad in hot weather. Will try it in cooler weather but so far doesn't mix well with my skin chemistry. I love freshies and Hermes are known for them but so far I give H24 Herbes Vives 2/10.

Absolutely adore this. A perfect masculine green fragrance. I decanted it and take it with me so I can reapply all day. Amazing

This is what the 15th century smells like in UK

Very medicinal, artificial cucumber with mint and dill. Has a weird acrid metallic drydown, love it. Overpriced though.

Hermès has taken the already outstanding H24 DNA and pushed it in an even greener, more natural direction. From the opening, Herbes Vives smells like stepping into an herb garden just after a summer rain. The herbs are fresh and vibrant, with the impression of damp stems and crushed leaves rather than dried culinary herbs. A subtle pear note adds a cool, watery freshness without ever becoming sweet or fruity. What impresses me most is how believable it smells. This isn’t a perfume trying to imitate nature with obvious “green” notes—it genuinely evokes being outdoors. The fragrance feels airy, clean, and alive. As it dries down, the familiar H24 character emerges, blending seamlessly with the fresh herbal opening. It remains elegant, modern, and unmistakably Hermès, with excellent balance and refinement. If you enjoy green, aromatic fragrances and are tired of the endless parade of sweet, loud designer releases, Herbes Vives is a breath of fresh air. It’s sophisticated without being formal, refreshing without smelling like shower gel, and unique without becoming challenging.

Sharp pear granita with mint, basil, and white pepper.

This is great but I question the "realistic" adjective being thrown around. For a grittier and more genuinely herbaceous offering, try apoteker tepe's anabasis. This is undoubtedly fresh and green but those qualities are secondary to a distinctly traditional perfume base (hermes-ade). Great for what it is, but somewhat jarring in contrast and not terribly creative.

Apesar do valor não muito acessível. Gostei muito.

This one is very unique, and at the opening, I am enjoying it. It smells very green, and the fresh herbal notes are very strongly present, and pleasant. I don't know if I can smell any pear yet. As is so often the case, I want to love this, but think it is going to wind up as a 'like'. I like the guiding shape or philosophy of it though, and it seems well made. The dry down is starting to have an almost medicinal quality to it, one that reminds me of a barium drink I had to drink in hospital as a child... I can't say I like that new scent, or the clinical field and associations it has for me.

Guys this is amazing. Thing is, if you are used to blue fragances easy to understand, this will kick your nose. Just be patient to it until you get used to... then you will understand the complexity of it. These kind of aroma are less of 'kid who wants to smell good to impress people', and more of a silent or discrete good taste with no need to yell or impress people to consider it worth. Fantastic for professional stuff, for meeting friends during the day, a day outside or inside, even for gym. Tip: if you think this doesn't last, just take off your shirt for a few minutes, breathe some fresh air, and the put back your shirt. You'll notice the aroma has been there all the time (and day lol) but without being so invasive or loud. But yet present.

Like it or not...there is nothing like it. So green it reminds me of a terrarium.

New Age take on a green scent profile. It has an airy, crisp, herbaceous, green and earthy aroma. Fresh herbs and mildly sweet juicy pear give it a nice highlite. Physcool adds a breezy sensation for an overall longlasting freshness before settling into a clean, woodsy earthy base. Definitely unique and different. Good projection and longevity with a trail that smells very fragrant in the air. Delivers modern sophistication with elegance and style. Kudos to Hèrmes for doing their own thing.

This is a pretty sharp green fragrance, but doesn't give me headaches and doesn't fade away into something sweeter or powdery like Un Jardin Sur Le Nil does. This does one thing well and does it right: fresh green herbal and green woods smell for 3-6 hours. If you like unripe green mangoes with mint and oregano, then this is for you. Even though it's marketed as a men's fragrance, I think more mature women (30 years and older) who want to stay fresh during hot and humid summer nights will very much enjoy this too. I enjoyed this sample much more than I initially thought I would.

It smells almost like a European pear. It has a fresh, green and fruity sweetness. 8/10

A very situational, yet very interesting scent. It smells like the bottle advertises. When you have a bouquet of herbs, and nuzzle your nose into it, that’s herbed vivres. It gives off a peaceful vibe, and it’s not really meant for social gatherings I’d say. This is a date fragrence. Very natural smelling scent, but not versatile.

genuinely foul. extremely bitter, no pear note, smells like chewing a mouth full of bitter plants while smelling someone's armpit. everyone I showed it to hated it even more than me. disgusting

H24 Herbes Vives is a triumph of intellectual freshness. It manages to feel deeply rooted in nature while remaining completely urban, polished, and sophisticated. It eschews the tired tropes of traditional masculine perfumery—there are no heavy woods, dense ambers, or aggressive marine accords here. Instead, it offers an articulate, cooling, and undeniably sophisticated green aura. For the gentleman who seeks an immaculate, modern signature that projects effortless refinement and sharp intellect, Herbes Vives is a necessary acquisition.

Unripe banana peel, (in a good way). 8/10. Very unique.

EN. H24 Herbes Vives is one of those rare modern fragrances that do not try to appear deeper, heavier, or more “niche” than they truly are. And that is precisely where its strength lies. It is not a perfume for an appearance in high society, not oriental opulence, not a dense trail of resins, leather, and oud. It is the scent of a fresh morning, wet grass, crisp air, and green light filtering through the leaves. In it, one perceives the aristocratic character of Hermès: restraint, precision, purity of line, and no vulgar desire to please at any cost. H24 Herbes Vives feels modern, but not superficial; clean, but without banality; green, but free from the intense notes of freshly cut grass. It is built around a very simple, almost minimalist idea — herbs, pear, and the refreshing effect of Physcool® — yet here this simplicity does not appear as simplification: it appears as an elegant intuition by the perfumer. The opening of the fragrance recalls the moment when, after a warm summer rain, the sun comes out again from behind the clouds. The grass is still wet, the air is transparent, the leaves are shining, and on a plate on the veranda there is a freshly sliced green pear — beautifully juicy. The pear is not there to turn the fragrance into a fruity cocktail, as often happens with this note. It gives softness, roundness, and a light natural sweetness that discreetly balances the green, almost crisp freshness of the herbs. The most attractive aspect of H24 Herbes Vives is its sensation of freshness. But this is not mint, not menthol, not the banal “icy breeze” of men’s sport fragrances. The freshness here is more abstract, clean, almost tactile. It is perceived not so much as a smell, but as a caressing movement of air on the skin. Thanks to this, the fragrance feels alive, breathing, very modern, yet at the same time absolutely noble. On the skin, H24 Herbes Vives first opens in a very luminous, green, and fresh way, then becomes softer, more transparent, more airy. It does not suffocate, it does not weigh down, it does not require a special occasion. It is a perfume to wear in the morning, on a warm day, while travelling, during a walk, after a shower, whenever one wants to look and smell clean, fresh, expensive, but without ostentation. In a collection like mine, made up of 300 niche perfumes, it occupies an important place precisely because it does not compete with heavy, dark, and charismatic fragrances. It does not aspire to be Amouage, Nasomatto, or Orto Parisi. Its task is different: to give a sensation of air, greenery, freshness, and calm elegance. In this sense, H24 Herbes Vives is not the “main protagonist of a tragedy”, but a perfectly filmed scene of a summer morning, where everything is simple, beautiful, and very precise. Perhaps it is not the greatest masterpiece by Hermès, and not the most important perfume in my collection. But it is frankly attractive, modern, and surprisingly wearable. Above all, it has an atmosphere. It conveys that living sensation of cleanliness: a mixture of grass, a sun-kissed meadow, damp earth after the rain, green pear on a garden table, and a fresh breath of wind through the treetops. Final verdict: H24 Herbes Vives Hermès is a very successful, elegant, and intelligent interpretation of modern green freshness. It is a perfume for those who are not looking for a banal “freshie”, but for a clean, luminous, noble, and unusual fragrance with the character of Hermès. There is no hysteria in it, but a clean and noble style. There is no ostentatious niche complexity, but the true perfumery tradition of Hermès. ________ IT. H24 Herbes Vives è uno di quei rari profumi moderni che non cercano di sembrare più profondi, più pesanti o più “di nicchia” di quanto siano davvero. Ed è proprio qui che sta la sua forza. Non è un profumo per un’uscita nell’alta società, non è una ricchezza orientale, non è una scia densa di resine, cuoio e oud. È il profumo di una mattina fresca, dell’erba bagnata, dell’aria frizzante e della luce verde che passa attraverso le foglie. In esso si percepisce il carattere aristocratico di Hermès: misura, precisione, purezza delle linee e nessun desiderio volgare di piacere a tutti i costi. H24 Herbes Vives suona moderno, ma non superficiale; pulito, ma senza banalità; verde, ma privo delle note intense di erba appena tagliata. È costruito attorno a un’idea molto semplice, quasi minimalista — erbe, pera e l’effetto rinfrescante del Physcool® — ma qui questa semplicità non appare come semplificazione: appare come un’elegante intuizione del profumiere. L’apertura del profumo ricorda il momento in cui, dopo una calda pioggia estiva, il sole torna a uscire da dietro le nuvole. L’erba è ancora bagnata, l’aria è trasparente, le foglie brillano, e su un piatto in veranda c’è una pera verde appena tagliata — bella succosa. La pera qui non serve a trasformare il profumo in un cocktail fruttato, come spesso accade con questa nota. Dona morbidezza, rotondità e una leggera dolcezza naturale, che bilancia con discrezione la freschezza verde, quasi croccante, delle erbe. L’aspetto più attraente di H24 Herbes Vives è la sensazione di freschezza. Ma non è menta, non è mentolo, non è la banale “brezza ghiacciata” dei profumi sportivi maschili. Il fresco qui è più astratto, pulito, quasi tattile. Non si percepisce tanto come odore, quanto come un movimento accarezzante dell’aria sulla pelle. Grazie a questo, il profumo sembra vivo, respirante, molto moderno, ma allo stesso tempo assolutamente nobile. Sulla pelle H24 Herbes Vives si apre dapprima in modo molto luminoso, verde e fresco, poi diventa più morbido, più trasparente, più arioso. Non soffoca, non pesa, non richiede un’occasione speciale. È un profumo da indossare al mattino, in una giornata calda, in viaggio, durante una passeggiata, dopo la doccia, quando si desidera apparire e profumare in modo pulito, fresco, costoso, ma senza ostentazione. In una collezione come la mia, composta da 300 profumi di nicchia, occupa un posto importante proprio perché non compete con i profumi pesanti, scuri e carismatici. Non aspira a essere Amouage, Nasomatto o Orto Parisi. Il suo compito è diverso: dare una sensazione di aria, verde, freschezza ed eleganza calma. In questo senso, H24 Herbes Vives non è il “protagonista principale di una tragedia”, ma una scena di mattina estiva girata alla perfezione, dove tutto è semplice, bello e molto preciso. Forse non è il più grande capolavoro di Hermès e non è il profumo più importante della mia collezione. Ma è francamente attraente, moderno e sorprendentemente portabile. E soprattutto ha un’atmosfera. Trasmette quella sensazione viva di pulito: una miscela di erba, prato baciato dal sole, terra umida dopo la pioggia, pera verde su un tavolo in giardino e un soffio fresco di vento tra le chiome degli alberi. Giudizio finale: H24 Herbes Vives Hermès è un’interpretazione molto riuscita, elegante e intelligente della freschezza verde moderna. È un profumo per chi non cerca un banale “fresco”, ma un profumo pulito, luminoso, nobile e insolito, con il carattere di Hermès. Non c’è isteria, ma uno stile pulito e nobile. Non c’è una complessità di nicchia ostentata, ma la vera tradizione profumiera di Hermès.

This is an example of love it or hate it. I own H24 perfume , which im in love with to be more precise and its one of my signature scents, but i still decided to get this version as well. The crispy fruity opening overshadowed by fresh herbal scent in a no time is quite different from how the perfume version unfolds. There you get a louder, longer projecting fruity smell, narcissus and other flowers followed by earthy and mossy continuation,as it leans towards to a sweeter side for a short period of time, here it stays shy from the start, but gives fresher vibes. This is definitely a spring smell, when the nature wakes up, precisely the smell in the forest or park after a short rain. Its definitely wearable on hot summer days as well. Performance is decent, but it lasts longer on humid warm/hot days from what i've experienced so far. I just wish this lasted as the h24 perfume does. I've realised that i made a mistake by getting another TDH bottle instead of this one a week ago. (Which btw got watered down so badly it no longer projects well). Overall, a high quality green frag, 8/10 smell , 6.5/10 performance

Amazing quality very realistic

smells good in air

The fruitiness is at the start and goes away past the opening and you’re left with a pleasant realistic mint that lasts a decent bit compared to the typical with fragrances that use realistic mint notes. I am enjoying my 5ml decant

In a world of beast mode and room fillers, this perfume does not try to be a complex 20 notes symphony, you should Imagine this perfume as a crisp bouquet of fresh-cut mint crushed against wild hairgrass. It is simple, and its beauty lies in this simplicity. for me it really does one thing, green, and does so with mastery, It is cold, fresh, and have that clinical DNA as the other H24 versions. Finally H24 herbes vives does not scream, does not clutter…just breaths.

I don't get any pear, but can smell almost any green element I can think of. Artemisia, crushed leaves, ivy, cut grass, dill, touch of mint. This is the definition of "green". Almost no sweetness. Mental image is taking a hike through a field in early spring when everything is coming back to life after a long winter. In the heart, there is a matcha tea scent that expands on the green theme. If you have H24 EDT, this will not be redundant. Won't get compliments, not unisex, probably best for those over 40. Wears less like a fragrance, more like what you might smell like after pruning bushes all day. To me, that is a wonderful smell. And it smells nothing like green jolly ranchers.

Beautiful green opening with a juicy pear that smells incredible. Unlike other green fragrances this doesn't smell like grass and it's quite enjoyable, sadly it smells like a salty cucumber on my skin after it dries down and it doesn't last :(

Juicy green perfection at the opening. I really enjoy that green fruity citrus peel accord that also appears in eau givree but is more subtle. But the dry down is overly chemical and has harsh aspects that almost touch the synthetics of like bacarat rouge band aids, but in a much fresher way.. This bothers me and is a real deal breaker. The original is the best and the one that I really enjoy all the way.

Fresh, grassy, fruity fragrance. The opening is pretty intense with mint and grass. Dries down a little creamier. Probably not a daily scent, but very nice for the warmer seasons. To me, it's a more wearable and more well-rounded version of Diptyque Philosykos
