How does it perform?
From 65 community ratings, all out of 10.
Holds up through the day and fades gently toward evening.
Leaves a light trail and stays polite in a crowd.
Sits nicely on a shelf.
The price makes you think, so a small size is a smart start.

WoodyWhat does Herbes smell like?
The top notes are lemon, orange, star anise and spearmint, so citrus and green freshness lead, with a spicy edge from the anise. In the heart, orange blossom, tuberose and mimosa turn it floral and slightly fruity. Cedarwood, musk and sandalwood form a calm, woody base.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure, daily wear and the office are the most chosen settings. Votes on character split almost evenly between feminine and masculine. Hermès Un Jardin en Méditerranée and Miller Harris Tangerine Vert have a close profile.
