HermèsTerre d'Hermès Eau de Parfum Intense (Eau de Parfum Intense, 2025): Fiery bergamot and pepper over mineral woods and lava stone

A woody aromatic with a darker, more mineral-tinged profile than the original Terre d'Hermès. It feels warm, smoky, and grounded, with a clean structure that stays refined.

Fragrance Notes

Top: Bergamot, black pepper
Heart: Coffee, licorice
Base: Woody notes, lava stone

What It Smells Like

It opens with bright bergamot that quickly turns spicy and dry from black pepper. The heart brings a roasted coffee effect with a subtle licorice twist, adding depth without going sugary. As it settles, woods take over and the signature mineral lava stone accord adds a hot-stone texture. The finish is smooth, slightly smoky, and quietly assertive.

Who Is It For

Marketed to men, but it can wear unisex if you like mineral woods and peppery freshness. Best for someone who wants a serious scent that stays composed.

When to Wear

Ideal for fall and winter, plus cool spring nights. Works well from office hours into evening.
