The perfumers at Hermès set themselves an unusual challenge: to create a women’s fragrance without a single floral note. Thus, Eau des Merveilles was born, unveiling a new facet of femininity: devoid of petals and nectar, yet imbued with a transparent radiance, a woody breath, and a salty shimmer on the skin. It is built on a woody-amber accord that conveys a sense of warmth and light, with citrus notes sparkling like a shower of stars. This is precisely how the brand describes Eau des Merveilles – “a shower of stars in broad daylight.” The transparent round bottle resembles a magnifying glass, through which the world can be seen more clearly and deeply, revealing details that were previously overlooked.

It beginswith bright bursts of bitter orange, dazzlingly sparkling on the skin. Lemon adds brightness and freshness, while elemi introduces a pine-like depth that grounds the citrus notes and imparts a subtle smoky hue.

Gradually,the fragrance warms, gaining volume and a sense of living warmth. Amber creates a sensation of sensuality and sun-kissed skin, while spicy nuances of black and pink pepper add dynamism. Violet resonates with a dry, woody tone, leaving its floral nature aside.

The final notesof white cedar and vetiver sketch a woody outline, with oak moss adding a touch of coolness. The star of this quartet, fir, infuses the fragrance with a lively pine freshness. Benzoin completes the composition with a soft, slightly salty haze.

Apply to the pulse points on the body.
