You Heard It Here First

Heres an honest review of the luxe fragrance.

When you hear the word Hermes, a few things come to mind.

Vibrant orange boxes that house the littlest of luxuries.Silky scarvesthat are more like detailed works of art.

In need of a new woody perfume for fall? Barénia Eau de Parfum by Hermès might just be your new fave…

Delicate butterfly lily flowers open up the aroma, bringing some softness.

Then theres a hint of subtly tart juiciness, all thanks to miracle berry.

What Is A Chypre, Anyway?

Barénia Eau de Parfum by Hermès launches on Sept. 2.

Often, scents within the chypre category havecitrusy top noteslikebergamot though with Barenia, miracle berry brings that tanginess.

While chypre scents are by nature genderless, more masculine perfumes tend to fall within this diverse category.

With its latest launch, however, Hermes has beautifully broken those boundaries.

While its definitely a woody chypre aroma, it somehow doesnt feel too heavy or overwhelming to the senses.

In fact, it acts more like askin scentthat slowly fades to a leather-scented whisper.
