HERMES H24 REVIEW - WHY FOR ME IT MISSES THE MARK

Hey friends, today I'm taking a look at the new Hermes H24 and giving my full review. In my first impression I liked the opening but said the dry down would need to grow on me. It didn't. As always thanks for watching!

[@James-cq5pl]

I disagree with you on this one. Very clean, unique crisp release here by Hermès. Lasts quite long on the skin too. A metallic green fragrance would be my description of the scent . Not a blind buy though. A modern masculine fragrance that is out there to present something new to the fragrance community.

[@ernestj3081]

I love it! I have worn it for over a month and I get so many compliments. I love how it evolves on my skin and with my chemistry. I’m on my second bottle ⭐️

[@simba_DIY]

Exactly at least you wear it and it's your unique smells still not very common . Woman don't think he is smelling like 5 others guys she already dates 😂

[@martysnarf]

Great thoughtful, thorough and honest review, Ash. I can tell you put a lot of time and thought into this - as you always do - and that’s why I watch and subscribe. Appreciate the deep dive!

[@jeremyhinze8837]

I'm not really sure what people want or were expecting from a classically French house like Hermes 🤷‍♂️ more oud, more beast mode woody Amber's? This is Hermès people.

[@riseuplight]

Lol yep

[@justaddlight]

A very fair review Ash. For me, it's exactly what I expected. No designer brand seems to be immune from the prevailing trends. I just can't help but feel bad for the perfumers. No wonder so many of them have started their own brands.

[@joelfromqueens]

That was a pretty fair and insightful review, Ash. I gotta say, I was a bit let down ever since I saw the presentation but maybe I’ll come around as well! 👍🏻

[@ToTheWind]

Great detailed review. Love the honesty. I hope Chanel's eventual follow-up to BDC doesn't suffer this fate.

[@CH-yp5by]

I totally agree with everything you said about this fragrance, glad that you just bluntly speak your mind !

[@jingledubz3989]

Awesome, Ash! Your utmost honesty is what has kept me subbed to your channel for years. I’ll pass on this one. 👍

[@cowboycrunchies]

Ash! Great honest review. Not tried it yet, but for me, I really don’t like the look of that bottle. Problem is, I think Hermès set the bar pretty high with the TDH bottle and the font styling, ultra classy!

[@davonwilson2959]

Really appreciate the honesty!👏🏽👏🏽

[@michaelbullock8011]

Great review and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try it and I appreciate your honestly and have a blessed day

[@svengolly7150]

Love your honest reviews Ash

[@38mickbell]

Got it on now and agree with your assessment. Love terre d'hermes and wanted to be blown away by H24 but it’s just ok I’m afraid. Don’t get me wrong, the dry down is really nice, better than the opening and I’ve smelt fresh all day, but over all it’s just a sold 7/10. Fingers crossed they bring out an EDP which is better

[@atom9827]

🔵 I do prefer this darker background lighting.. Previous videos I thought the lighting was a little distracting 👀 Loved the review as always! 👍

[@dariuszekonomiuk6635]

Right on. I'm with you 100%. All the best for Chicago.

[@TheFragranceWardrobe]

Thanks for this review. Was considering this one

[@BlackJackRaiden]

I will defintely buy it. I had it on my arm a few days ago and couldnt stop sniffing it. And i dont know if they have special Tester bottles with increased strength (i dont think it is. :D) but i could smell it reaaally long. Like from 2 pm until i went to sleep at night.

[@ScentedArsenal]

This is exactly how I felt after smelling h24 yesterday evening, The woman who was work at Hermes said she loved it, after she sprayed it on me I almost immediately said I didn't like it the opening was very short lived and it went into the mid/drydown very quickly it's definitely different but nowhere near the versatility of Terre I personally couldn't even wear this one casually. I really wanted to like this one.

[@semaguva2644]

Great review like always, very honest

[@scottbrown2130]

Thanks for the honest review and for helping me save my money. Pass on this one.

[@ahighhokie6793]

My H24 is evaporating. I’ve only owned it for a couple of months and sprayed only a few times. It’s down about 1/4 inch. I’ve put a thread sealer on it to hopefully slow the evaporation.

[@peterlux5619]

Opening: cold, wet, green Bananas. Drydown: cold Iron and fresh Laundry

[@conde.15]

I thought it’s only Me that can smell the bananaish note of it. LOL lady at nordstrom laughed when i said that. Lol

[@iswimZay]

Its funny because i brought this because of the open i just had to have it but then i started wearing and its just ok to me but ppl love the drydown it gets compliments like crazy and i’m 23 btw

[@TheUrbanEpicure]

I've had two 1.5ml samplers now and I don't get any metallic or green notes. It's all mango in the top and heart. Refreshing but classy. I really like it. Sort of a classier A&F First Instinct. I'll get it as soon as the 50ml drops below €50.

[@atkinsonej14]

I recently sampled 1962 by Floris London. Loved it so much that I bought a full bottle. Highly recommend.

[@jroark101]

To me this is the best and most honest review. I 💯 agree

[@toffeegamer6378]

Bought it the 2nd I saw it and loved it. Creamy Green Goodness. Maybe it dosnt last long enough but it’s a freshie so what’s the problem with just spraying more on. I just really love the opening to mid so I keep spraying it lol 😂

[@duquanjacqueswimbletonii594]

people are saying this doesn't last long? I sprayed it on my hand once and three hours later I constantly catch whiffs of it

[@fatboy5926]

We need a video of like high end/niche modern men’s fragrances. I’ve been looking for a modern men’s fragrance like an ambroxan bomb or something but different to the Sauvage’s and whatever. I actually picked up Tygar for an excellent price so have that coming and am keeping an eye out for Jovoy Conduit Street

[@CH-yp5by]

21 Conduit Street is on my radar as well, really intrigued by this!

[@tomatochemist]

I’ve loved many of the soft, fleeting Jardins from Hermes (except Lagune, ugh) and H24 fits in with that line except more mineral rather than grassy or citrusy. I love it :-) I’m not a brand or designer snob at all, I just enjoy the Hermes DNA of clean, light fragrances

[@stevencastrillon756]

H24 is great for the gym when you sweat 🔥

[@Ljmac03]

Great honest review.

[@brunogiambroni1422]

I’m down for more brutal reviews like these haha

[@willemjansen307]

He is being honoust.

[@denard8409]

Have you ever smelled lalique faune? It was part of the por home line... lion, equis etc... given its price, I'm assuming it was discontinued...

[@TrustedNose]

This is why Ash is one of my favourite reviewers, he keeps it soo real I respect it🤝

[@eliasarches2575]

I really like H24 EDT. It’s a more modern successor to L’Eau D’Issey for me. It’ll be my new summer scent.

[@tylernagel1930]

I do however prefer the choice of aroma chemical they decided to go with being a more sophisticated smell alongside being similar to their other ones from the past.

[@thebossman4875]

I got some samples of this. The opening is very impressive but the Sage was too prominent in the drydown

[@Megatronstarship]

I tried this in person and it literally smells like freshly cut foliage/stems. It would be a nice linen mist but that's about it. Also it completely disappeard after like an hour on clothes and skin

[@kroshae]

This was so well put salute 💯

[@kiefervandenberg]

11:40 As a teenager I really dig the smell of H24. I got a sample of it a while ago from Norstrom, when I first smelled it I was like, not bad but not my cup of tea. I think it was because of the sharpness it has from the metallicness and its botanical/ greenness to it. But now spraying it again it really grew on me maybe because my taste in fragrances changed/matured. I really like it now but what's stopping me is its steep price of around 90-100 dollars. It's a great fragrance but not worth the price to me.

[@manygaga1]

I like H24. The smell of steamed ironed fresh clothes. It's not for everyone though. You are right when you are saying they are doing what sauvage did. I called it on fragrantica a green sauvage. Fair review!

[@nahdi]

👌🏽

[@nahdi]

Thanks for your honest opinion.....I can’t disagree ...

[@patrickmorgan7913]

I’ve been wearing H24 for a couple of days now and I think it smells somewhere between Terre d’Hermes Eau Tres Fraiche and one of the Jardin range, maybe Un Jardin Sur Le Nil. So nothing really new, but perfectly pleasant. I think Terre d’Hermes Eau Tres Fraiche is a little more sophisticated.

[@tiagobrasildeavila9773]

I've also noticed that green mango note of Sur le Nil in the opening.

[@Hititup2121]

Great review and I real enjoy this fragrance and i"m 35 yeras old . I real enjoy weariing H24 and I have a sample and my girlfriend kelly like it too.

[@Saved-by-Grace]

Hey Ash, you should check out Hermes Eau des Mervilles, probably one of the greatest fragrances I've personally ever smelled. It's marketed as a women's fragrance but it's 100% unisex to me.

[@PerfectlyFreedom]

Ah I heard that from George as well!

[@bilalib9630]

For hot locations, I like it. Its smooth, right amount of projection and longevity. Happy , elegant scent. Green mangoish green with elegance, some similarity with sur de ne lil . Dailywear type of scent , its simple imho.

[@ScentitarFragrance]

Great thoughts. I like tdh eau tres frianche way more

[@hevindu7749]

I get sour note in the beginning n through the life of the fragrance I get a flower note. Which is little different. Metalic note is not too strong here.

[@03SilverMustangGT]

I love H24 it’s one of my favs

[@Guinea54]

This does have that smoldering smell.. my room smelled like something was burning or steaming when i sprayed it.. and this was before I saw this review, so they def did that correct.. this scent reminds me of a version of Curve if curve had more florals and smelled like green bananas.. I didn't like this one at first cause it reminded me of green banana shampoo. Not sure why no one talks about how it smells like bananas. But this gets a ton of compliments. The few times I wore it I practically got a compliment from someone every time.. which is weird cause it doesn't usually happen to me these days.. Also I can't figure out the performance cause someone complimented me once across the room like 15+ feet. The projection in the opening for me is monstrous. I don't know if there are diff batches or a sort of nose blindness people suffer from?

[@Alex-vi8ux]

I got a few samples today. Starts off really fresh smelling really nice for the first 10 to 15 minutes and then after that it really dies out quick. I can't believe Hermès put this into production. It's missing substance. I'm so disappointed because I was looking forward to something Awesome.

[@ahmedhabis208]

No one: .... Ash casually flashes his midnight in Paris bottles in our faces. So cold Ash, so cold

[@TrephineArtist]

I tried this and quite liked it. I'm used to people over-hyping certain brands and Hermès is one of them along with Dior & Chanel. Terre d'Hermès is surely a modern (ish) timeless classic, as is Bleu de Chanel, although I've only tried H24 once I think Ash may be right, it's not going to be regarded like those previous two. Personally for me the best release from any of these three brands in the last 20 years was Dior Homme Sport 2008, a masterpiece in my opinion, or something very close to it!

[@Guinea54]

Agreed... 2008 DHS was fantastic. My favorite fresh scent

[@EtBr1978]

I absolutely love H24 but I'm less than impressed with the performance. Hopefully there will be an EDP before soon.

[@christiank.5229]

In general it´s not a bad scent. Fesh in green opening with a slight turn in some kind of mineral taste is u unique profile. But I totally agree that this one is not a masterpiece. It´s some kind of ok´ish fragrance for those who looking for an unmcomplicated spring scent. But there a lots of other fragrances out there for the same category.

[@abdulkaderlm1057]

salvatore ferragamo intense leather rivew?

[@alleks5253]

I bought it blind when it came out and was not impressed. For me it smells cloyingly sweet somehow and not fresh at all

[@sodubairob8251]

Thankfully Hermes do a fragrance called Equipage Geranium which is green, gorgeous, lasts much better and got a lot more character. H24 felt actually very reminiscent of many 90s fragrances - especially from the long mid. Yeah, a bit dull, tbh. And when you have a lot of great fragrances, this won't get worn. (BTW, I was wearing the original Chanel Allure Homme when I tested this and it appeared just worlds beyond H24 in depth, evolution and character. No comparison.)

[@1manairband]

I get a cucumber vide smell from it and it doesn’t really go with my taste. Yes, I own a bottle but I think I’ll have a pretty full bottle for some time.

[@willemjansen307]

Well at least you are being honoust. I got an sample. I was intrested in the H 24 as i noticed that some reviewers did not like as much while others hyped it. Blue de Chanel Edp 10 times better. Even Escentric 01 is way better. H 24 missed opportunity.

[@bradleystroup1457]

I think they're going to do what a lot of brands are starting to do. That is, the original release is a base DNA. THE EDPs and the Parfum will add the depth. The other flankers like an eau frachie or a noir or absolute will twist the DNA for added interest

[@sebsebseb1905]

The only one I can compare it to is Dior Homme 2020 and I am not a hater of Dior or a snobe, I only wear designer, I love Sauvage, but H24 is waaaaaay more refined and classier that DH2020. DH2020 TO ME is trash, I'm sorry, smells like lemony light vetiver, not worth the money AT ALL. H24 smells a lot more special.

[@toffeegamer6378]

I do think I love it because I’m fed up with everything designer being sweet to super sweet or incredibly citrus.it’s just that fragrance is now just going through a dry phase for fantastic releases that are different. I have only 94 frags atm. Time to go niche and drop typical designers to find better different frags I guess ??????

[@likeliterally7077]

only 94 lol

[@toffeegamer6378]

@@likeliterally7077 yeah think I have a problem lol but I’ve got the designers all caught up with. Now it’s time to go back into the minefield of niche

Thank you. I love LOVE Terre De Hermes. H24 let me down. I has great expectations and felt let down. It's nice. But, TDH isn't just nice. It's amazing. H24 is meh.

[@assadsaoud3324]

They are not trying to copy what Dior or Chanel Did around aroma-chemicals; they are rather trying to copy what they themsleves did with Terre d'Hermes which was -maybe- the biggest and first success around aroma-c, beacause Terre was full of ISO E SUPER back then ;)

[@immitable]

Not crazy about it, modern fougere. I dislike bitter green frags, reminds me of Cartier line or even that eau de Hermes orange verte lines but then again it is Hermes.

[@leonardopineda3829]

They should have added Sandalwood for the dry down

In the words of Jeremy Fragrance "BRUTAL"

[@corradocurti]

well you were right... simply you didn't get it :) this is a completely different from others essence, moreover i really dont feel what mainstream say about his notes... iron, wood, what? this is very fresh and acquatic and long-lasting clean and aromatic essence instead.

[@thembp4sho]

I like the smell but it lacks performance

[@tiagobrasildeavila9773]

H24 feels very much like the "eau très fraiche" of Ralph's Club. Seems like clarysage is the new citrus...

[@UnknownChap]

I tried last week and 🤮 not for me.

[@lukasmilet2028]

interesting take. still i think if it gets the same status as a BDC or Sauvage most people will be happy about it. what you describe is the curse of being an innovator. i disagree with your take getting a positive hype because it is coming from hermes. i saw some videos where people blind sniffing and liking it. who care which company is releasing a new fragrance - it is the juice that counts. also the target group and sales are not relevant. of course respect your opinion.
