I clearly do not perceive a real "top note-heart-note-base note composition". The persistent bergamot can perhaps be interpreted as a relatively long top note, but all in all Terre d'Hermès Eau Intense Vétiver is a very linear scent, a dryout or something similar you "search" in vain. I have to be honest: personally I would not have bought it, because although I have nothing against vetiver in principle, it is not my favourite ingredient and I prefer other fragrances and scents. Vetiver hat einen guten Klang, darin muss man wohl den Grund für solche Namesgebungen sehen. Ich halte wenig davon, Parfums mit Duftnoten zu bezeichnen, die dann nicht oder kaum wahrnehmbar sind. Das verwirrt, vor allem den Parfumanfänger.

Edit Feb21 : Apparently I am now mature enough for this fragrance, after the morning 12° degree shower for my three-month Ironman training was still the most relaxing exercise.... (o.k. that was a lie;) Haltbarkeit: 6-8 Stunden sind gehobenes Mittelmaß. Zudem noch auf Griechenland getestet bei warmem Wetter. Reicht mir. I tested Terre d'Hermès Eau Intense Vétiver for three days. On the first two days of wear, I used half a sample each day (about 1 ml of scent); on day three I wore an entire vial (2 ml). Though Terre d'Hermès Eau Intense Vétiver certainly smelled stronger with a larger dosage, it had almost no sillage and stayed so close to my body after the first few hours I had to put nose to skin (or shirt) to smell it. There's nothing truly "intense" about this perfume after its first few minutes of development. First there was the start with the slightly rotten oranges. A good shot of bergamot has now been added, giving it a bit of grapefruit-like appearance, which is pleasantly bitter and fresh.And what was waiting for me? Citrus, citrus and more citrus. The very strong and distinctive, yet round and not artificial-looking bergamot is the prelude to Terre d'Hermès Eau Intense Vétiver. For the first 15-20 minutes I perceive almost exclusively the "green-natural" looking bergamot, but to which I am increasingly added the vetiver, which for me is more earthy than woody. Also a certain sharpness is now perceptible thanks to the Szechuan pepper, which in my opinion is good for the fragrance and gives it that certain "pep".

And with power. Because Terre d'Hermès Eau Intense Vétiver radiates siginfikant, for about 8 hours. At the same time, I felt him best with 3-4 spritzes on the chest, which provides him with the powerful sillage and persistent durability when going over to the shirt. Should you have hair in this area, every single one of them straightens up and also you inevitably takes a bolt upright posture;) But he is not only interesting for fans of TdH, but especially for all who are inclined to the subject of vetiver, but have problems with one or the other rather scratchy version. Of course, Guerlain's vetiver should be mentioned here. An absolute classic, which I myself once had in my collection, but which has been a few degrees too rough, scratchy and tart for me and was not re-bought after using up. Otherwise, it is just a fairly linear Vetiver representative of the also for itself in the Hermès portfolio could be led, but otherwise would not have attracted so much attention. Für alle, die ihre Maskulinität unterstreichen wollen mag der herbe Terre d'Hermès Eau Intense Vétiver eine Empfehlung sein, doch ich muss das wohl irgendwie anders hinkriegen;) Denn der ist garantiert In my opinion, Terre d'Hermès Eau Intense Vétiver is a successful, citric-woody vetiver scent, in which strong vetiver has been super combined with bergamot and also gets a certain "pep" thanks to the Szechuan pepper.Terre d’Hermès EdT, das Original von Jean-Claude Ellena gilt als innovatives Meisterwerk der modernen Parfümeurskunst und ist ein großer Verkaufserfolg. Es genoss bei mir allerdings immer mehr Respekt als Liebe, denn für mich hatte es stets ein paar Schwachstellen. Diese sind jetzt bei dem Flanker TdH Eau Intense Vétiver ausgemerzt und es ist ein, wie ich finde, rundum gelungener und vor allem auch sehr männlicher Duft mit guter Performance entstanden, bei gleichzeitigem Festhalten an der Grund-DNA. Ja, es scheint fast, dass es immer noch die gleiche Ausgangsformel ist und nur drei zusätzliche Zutaten hinzugeschüttet wurden (aber so einfach funktioniert das wohl nicht). Eins vorweg: bei diesem Ableger darf man keinen direkten Flanker des bekannten und beliebten TdH erwarten. Vielmehr ist Terre d´Hermès Intense Vétiver ein eigenständiger Duft, der mit dem Namenspatron nur die zitrisch-frische Richtung gemeinsam hat.
