Und so wünscht man sich einen Duft doch eigentlich, oder? Schon, aber für mich ist diese Richtung einfach zu maskulin. Ich halte ihn für einen top Duft wenn es in eine säuerlich, kräftig kühle Grünholzigkeit gehen soll und man nichts in Richtung Barbershop sucht. Doch obwohl ich es nicht so recht wahrhaben wollte und dieser Vetiver eigentlich recht gut zu mir passen müsste, konnte ich mich über die Monate doch nicht so recht mit ihm anfreunden, weil er mir schlicht zu prägnant, markant und dominant war.

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. As a fan of strong fresh fragrances, this vetiver from Hermes should actually be just right for me. So tested a few times, although not found optimal, but ultimately bought. Also because I found others such as Guerlains Vetiver as too soft and I was therefore specifically looking for more expressive representatives of this direction. And just such I found at Hermes. The bottle receives 7 points from me! The glass has an intimated "H" shape, also at the bottom. A "metal plate" with integrated sprayer is attached to the top of the glass. On the sprayer is engraved "Hermes", the cap that encloses the sprayer has to be turned to make the sprayer visible and is held in a matching brown tone. Simply a great design. Why do I still deduct three points? One thing in advance: with this offshoot, you should not expect a direct flanker of the well-known and popular TdH. Rather, Terre d'Hermès Intense Vétiver is an independent fragrance that has only the citrus-fresh direction in common with the namesake.The strength of vetiver mixed with the vitality of the Sichuan pepper and green bergamot. On the horizon, another Terre. Vetiver, inherent to Terre since its origins, is the culmination of this new composition. The initial woody and mineral balance of Terre becomes woody and vegetal. 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. Terre d'Hermès Eau Intense Vétiver, because of its bergamot and peppery vetiver, I think it fits especially well in spring and autumn, for me it is too light for winter, too heavy for summer. It fits perfectly into everyday life and is well suited for school / university / work and leisure time, but for special occasions and / or going out you should count on other fragrances, because for something like this the Terre d'Hermès Eau Intense Vétiver is too - badly formulated - "boring" and too monotonous - it is not particularly aphrodisiacal either.

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. I received compliments from both sexes, but surprisingly I was increasingly approached by men who thought that I would appear "very masculine" and "more experienced" with the fragrance, women found it either pleasant or "too macho" Nevertheless, I give him - despite my probably positive description - only 7 points, one point I deduct because the scent is too linear and "too uncomplex", one because of the vector, which seems too earthy and not woody enough, and one because I personally miss something sweet. Whereby I would like to praise in particular the fact that all in all it is a very distinctive and masculine scent, which in my opinion not everyone can wear, since with it one is very likely to attract attention and radiate (male) authority. In the middle there was always a desolate and empty boredom for me - into which much was kept secret: from flintstone to an asphalt surface after midsummer rain. It just smelled like a lot of Iso-E Super to me. Christine Nagel has now given the thing pepper, Szechuan pepper more precisely, and the result is a powerful and persistent spice. The end of the original was marked by cedar, so strong that one involuntarily had to think of a pencil-sharpening assistant accountant. Now, with a good shot of vetiver on it, it smells like a lot more authority. So rather head of finance and controlling.Dagegen ist dieser Vetiver definitiv die mainstreamigere bzw. konformere Variante, weil sie doch etwas rundgeschliffener und angesüßter daher kommt. Dazu halt ein bisschen pfeffrige Würze plus einem ordentlichen zitrischen Einschlag. Da fehlt zwar die Rafinesse vom TdH an sich, ist aber kein Verbrechen. Nörgler würden kritisieren, dass TdHIV für einen Vetiver doch zu brav geraten sei. Ich persönlich kann mich damit bestens arrangieren. Das einzige Minus was ich anmerken würde, ist das kleine Quentchen Künstlichkeit, was in diesem Eau de Parfum mitschwingt. Ansonsten ein gelungener und nicht inflationärer Erfrischer für sonnige Frühlings- und Sommertage.
