I think that Terre D'Hermès is a masterpiece by Jean-Claude Ellena. I would rate it as a TOP 10 designer fragrance of all time.

[@makstaz79]

You darm right it is!

[@dans4786]

[@DocRock71]

I really appreciate that Aaron can be comfortable in saying that although a fragrance is "amazing" and "excellent", etc, while also saying "it's not to "my taste" and "I dont like" while also talking about it's "pros" is refreshing. Most YT reviewers either love every single fragrance they smell, or they bash ones based on their own personal likes and dislikes, regardless of the quality and craft involved.

[@ricardojmestre]

That's Aaron for you :)

[@miamiballin305]

This is the reason why he’s my absolute favorite reviewer. Unbiased and honest. And able to appreciate something of good quality regardless of it not matching his personal preference. Definitely agree with you.

[@TA-ht4jo]

Aaron is a pleasant contrarian. Most contrarians are annoying. Aaron is more of a likable contrarian.

[@somename7381]

A professional

[@apothe6]

thats why i like aarons channel, he cant appreciate quality and artistry without actually liking the aroma personally

[@Figureight]

This is a fragrance that given how people describe it, I didn't think I'd like it. But there is something about it that I find alluring. Also compared to many other citrus fragrances I feel like this maintains the fruity citrus notes for a lot longer.

[@athanasioskontos2967]

so refreshing to hear a perfumer talk about fragrances! love this technical talk about notes !!!

[@huzidamasta]

I love how you make the fragrance a visual experience in addition to a smell. So engaging and unlike any other reviewers. The way you gesture actually makes the note breakdowns make more sense to a layman as well, making the channel more accessible. I can feel your passion for fragrance and its thoroughly enjoyable to watch 👌

[@abhiget000]

This is a masterpiece timeless classic musculune fragrance. It has everything you need, fresh, green, woody, earthy and musky fragrance.

[@time4jesus]

I just love how even when you don't like a fragrance, you can appreciate the art for for what it is and still give the perfect scenario where it would be worn. Terre d'Hermes is a regular staple in my work rotation and always will be. Easily among my top designer choices and frequently brings positive feedback. Jean Claude Ellena is just brilliant at putting together these airy type scents that have a little twist in them even though they're quite safe.

[@starrynight6223]

I gifted this to my father more than a decade ago and recently when I asked him what to get him for his birthday he said, his Terre d'Hermes was almost gone so he needed another fragrance. 😂 You are a fascinating reviewer. Thank you.

[@Benjimikey]

[@banjoman123]

I always search your reviews before I buy something. As someone who wears a suit to this office every day, I had to jump on it. Just got it in today! Love it! Definitely a classy scent.

[@callipygous8328]

Fantastic and honest review, thank you Aaron. Love your fragrance Maverick I purchased a full bottle recently been rocking it regularly I love the smell of it and so does most of everyone I work with .

[@Agerskiold]

Absolutely love your reviews, sir 🙏🏻 I’ve been wearing Terre D’Hermes as my signature for some time now and I think it’s great for most occasions 👌🏼 Cheers from Denmark 🇩🇰

[@sandymcconnell1969]

I have such special memories of this fragrance. It blew me away and still does to this day. An absolute masterpiece.

[@CaptnSMAK]

Without a doubt THE best perfumer videos on KZbin (and there are many). Always makes me smile when I am about the pull the trigger on a blind buy and see you have already reviewed. It helps make or break my purchase. On to this, I have the terre d'hermes eau intense vetiver which I adore and adds more of that creamy vetiver. Maybe that one would be better suited.

[@xClunky]

You hit the nail right on the head. While this might not be for everybody it is undoubtedly a masterpiece. Jean-Claude Ellena is a genius.

[@TylerNicholasBrown]

I love how you include the science of the perfumery in your reviews. Also, you give it such an honest review and you don't down play how great it is just because you personally don't like it. Love your reviews, Aaron. Keep them coming.

[@cysco485]

Brother, I feel an indescribable pleasure in the way you speak, how you untangle the description of any perfume, it's something divine... this is POWER

[@janoskaszas5612]

One of best designer fragrance ever. Period.

[@OtisF96]

This is it, the point of perfumery at which peak mastery is achieved. Beautiful from Hermes, a timeless scent that remains as individual and refreshing as it was when first released. Very glad that you like it!

[@dextermorgan2117]

Are you F kidding me. This garbage is 45% iso e super. Like half of the world can't smell ISO E super and Terre d'Hermes contains 45% ISO E super. So, to 50% of strangers you small sharp offensive and UNBEARABLE, because they cannot smell the huge amount of softener that is need to blunt the pungency from the other notes. I'm one of the people are anosmic to ISO E super.

[@David-kv9yh]

So well said. Been wearing EDP for about six years

[@rafaelhenck8169]

I adore this fragrance which has been my spring and mild summer day signature scent. It's still unique despite being released in 2006. Even the ones who don't love it do acknowledge its quality.

[@davethebarber62920]

You're correct for what season this is the best. I like Voyage D' Hermes for the hot summer days.

[@juliochingaling5824]

Thank u Aaron,great review n excellent as always. God bless u brother 🙏✝️

Terre d’Hermes has been my signature fragrance since 2016. Still packs such a punch. Absolutely love it. Class in a bottle. Works all year round

To appreciate the craftmanship and work that has been put into it but to say that it's just not your favorite. I REALLY love your content. Thank you for posting this content and for being 'you'. Please never quit and keep posting this wonderfull content. I admire you a lot.

Love this channel. It’s like having a fragrance professor lol About to pull the trigger on Smolder 😎

[@ricardojmestre]

Great, I was so curious about your opinion on TdH! Stay well and healthy, Aaron.

[@nathanwilbur783]

Thank you for always giving your honest opinion. I have learned so much more from you than anyone else on KZbin that ‘rates’ parfumerie. Typically others have something to gain but you truly do this for the love of scent. I know you only do the ‘best of’ at the end of a year, but I truly would love to know what your top five that you wear are. Cheers.

[@dpacc88]

I'm so confused how a perfumer has never smelled this before😂

[@dorf2070]

Agreed

[@whodoyouthinkheare]

Who set this stupid rule? You?

[@Alex-mj5dv]

Because he decided one day to retrain and get into it, rather than truly develop a genuine love for it. His lack of knowledge on the great perfumers, brands, perceptions, market-positioning is quite astounding really.. he may have a good nose for aroma-chemicals, but he’s not ever going to be contracted by a big house because, for some reason, he just doesn’t understand the rest of the perfumery game.. he’s a great chemist for sure though and has learned his trade there. Hey, a collab between Sebastian from SGFR and Aaron would really be a good match up. Sebastian can brand and knows how to market. That’s all Aaron needs, a guiding hand in that side of it. Which, really, is 85% of it. The remaining 15% is ‘is your damn product good enough for the market or not?’.

[@slumped9677]

@@Alex-mj5dv you’re talking rubbish because if you’ve smelled his scents you’ll know that many of his recent scents are more ‘designer’ inspired many have similarities to popular niche and designer scents. His upcoming summer scent is basically a better quality fruitier take on the aventus DNA.

[@Koichi75]

@@slumped9677 lack of branding and marketing isn’t helping Aaron. Like Alex suggested having someone to properly position the brand is what he needs. No matter how “designer” his recent releases are. Without poisoning, proper messaging and a brand that cultivate customer base, you end up shooting blank arrows. This means some times you have to let go of the control, allow someone to help run the brand.. so you can keep making the art you love.

[@joearquilla]

Great review. 'Terre D'Hermès' is a newer aquisition to my collection. I truly love it. ps. You are amazing. Perhaps, my favorite fragrance expert!

[@simonwesley711]

I love your reviews Aaron! Thank you! I do have a bottle of this and yes I get the cigarettes too. Now you’ve mentioned it as the Vetiver, I am gonna embrace it for what it is. 😊👍

[@ohfour-seven6228]

Great review Aaron. I really like it and have been wearing it for years. But I have to be in the right mood for it, it could never be a signature scent for me. As always, so much information, thanks!

I'm glad you like this, it's one of my favourites when I have to wear something clean.

[@joaomnqoliveira]

I was super curious about this one because you said, on you previous review, this would probably be reformulated. Great review, as always 🦄

I actually prefer the parfum version... Sometimes I mix your Oud with the parfum terre d'hermes

[@genki2genki]

I really appreciated your review, particularly your point about it having an earthy & cigarette like feel. Love it for work.

[@Jaime8908]

Thanks for making a review on this fragrance. I really enjoyed hearing your thoughts on this :). I just recently picked up samples of Terre d'Hermes and Terre d'Hermes Eau Intense Vetiver. I think I'm currently liking eau intense vetiver a bit more. I would love to hear what you think of that one too.

[@ricardojmestre]

I also prefer the Eau Intense Vetiver!

[@EsDels]

You such one of your kind …I mostly listen to before I make my purchases.

[@kidnamedtervel]

Talking about citrusy fragrances I'm absolutely impressed by Haze Blue. The fragrance is so classy, sophisticated, and well blended. I was never expecting a fragrance with so well-known compounds to smell like this. I literally can't stop smelling it and I love the opening and the dry down equally. I plan to get haze black soon. Aron, you are truly a master!

[@AaronTerenceHughes]

Thank you. Thats very kind🦄

[@greenmango715]

I was wearing a white shirt yesterday and ,..I sprayed this cologne on it put me in such a good mood it's definitely a classic it's not for everybody . Great review I always love to hear your opinion.

[@tonymalizia]

Spot on review. I'm also smelling a phantom tobacco cigarette note in it, which I love. It's both my favorite woody and my favorite vetiver fragrance.

[@robertkerr9527]

Thanks for your review Aaron. I only found your channel yesterday. I can barely pick up on Terre dHermes with my nose. Just can't smell the stuff. But Ultimate by Baldessarrini is full of iso super and I love that juice. Great for layering with woody scents. I love vetiver in Bvlgari Man Terrae Essence and Dior Eau Sauvage Parfum as well. Two different but lovely vetiver scents. I'm quite interested in your new creation guapo. I'd like to experience the bergamot and vetiver you described in it. Sounds magnificent and sublime. Thanks for your passion. Greetings from Switzerland 🇨🇭 😀.

[@hewassuchaniceguy.7453]

[@raulsaavedra709]

Great review! Would be interesting to see your thoughts on the Parfum, how you find it in comparison to this the EDT

[@TheDude818]

Terre D'Hermes is a legit masterpiece for what it is. It's been a decade since I've worn it routinely, but even with a niche collection now, it's just undeniably nice. That cigarette aspect you mention, I'd explain as "flinty" & really love it... Kinda "its thing" with this one, IMO. Especially considering it's a 2006 release, I have mad respect for this one as a still-great, modern, pre-Tom Ford banger for men. Its flankers are also surprisingly worthwhile fwiw.

[@TheDude818]

@@solokom Grew up collecting Zippo lighters so it's surely a reference I'm more familiar with than most - replacing flints all the time - But yep it's exactly what makes TdH so compelling. Brilliant scent.

[@davekemp1808]

I've got the Parfum version/flanker of this, and to say that I'm in love with it is a big understatement. I think you should maybe give the Parfum a go as it's not as heavy on the Vetiver as the EDT (even though I love my Vetiver). It's just so smooth & elegant. Love the review.

I like this fragrance and after getting it I realized I like grassy, earthy non sweet fragrances (on most days). It’s good that even if you don’t like this type of “genre” you still manage to give it a decent review. Most reviewers out there would just bash a fragrance just because it’s not their thing.

I think the review was spot on. I don’t like Terre d’ Hermès either, but I do appreciate M. Ellena’s direction for this fragrance and how well crafted it is. As with all of Ellena’s work, this is a modern reinterpretation of Edmond Roudnitska’s classic creations for Hermès, Rochas, and Dior. I would be curious to see Mr. Hughes’ appraisal of the Terre d’Hermès parfum and also of Eau Très Fraîche and Vetiver Intense versions, since I have a completely different take on these.
