Eau d’Orange Verte: 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.
