Moisturizing and protective, this smooth balm rich in hydrating and emollient agents soothes the skin and offers an immediate sensation of comfort, making it feel supple and soft. Non-greasy, it can be used on the face, hands and all over the body. Men can also use it as an after-shave. Another way to wear fragrance with Eau d'Orange Verte. The founding cologne, created by Francoise Caron in 1979 and inspired by the smell of undergrowth moist with morning dew, Eau d'Orange Verte has since asserted itself as an emblem of Hermes, standing out by its distinctive freshness. Conceived as an explosion of citrus notes, orange plays the principal role supported by zest and leaves, lemon, mandarin, mint and blackcurrant bud. The fragrance reveals its complexity in a unique sillage composed of oak moss and patchouli.
