Hermès Hiris is a feminine scent that sets a powdery, creamy iris within a fresh, green, lightly spicy frame, and it suits spring and summer days and daytime wear.

What does Hiris smell like?

The top opens with carnation, iris and coriander, with amber alongside. In the heart, neroli, iris and rose carry the floral line. In the base, cedar, honey, vanilla and almond tree soften the scent and sweeten it, leaving an earthy, woody warmth.

Longevity and sillage are both moderate, so it stays close without overwhelming. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily, office and leisure wear lead the occasions. Voters mostly call its character feminine, though classic and masculine votes are not negligible.
