24 Faubourg Welcome to Hermès The story of the house of Hermès is the story of Thierry Hermès, a harness maker who became a leather goods maker and then a perfumer.
24 Faubourg by Hermès is an address but also the name of a perfume. It was in 1880 that the house of Hermès settled at this location. Since that day, it has never left. It is therefore a powerful symbol of the history of Hermès, one that the house wished to pay tribute to through the creation of a fragrance, in 1995. The perfume 24 Faubourg by Hermès invites one to push open the door of this place and to be dazzled by all the splendors within. On the olfactory level, this takes shape as a floral and woody perfume, very luminous, crafted by the talented Maurice Roucel. But what about its bottle? Here again, it is an evocation of all of Hermès's craftsmanship.
The atypical shape of the 24 Faubourg by Hermès bottle
The silhouette of the 24 Faubourg by Hermès perfume is quite surprising. Indeed, while most bottles are either round or square, 24 Faubourg does not seem able to make a choice. Generally speaking, it is fairly cubic. However, its glass walls seem to move before our eyes, forming certain undulations. A curve is clearly drawn in its edges, which gives it a rounder, softer side. Beyond evoking feminine tenderness and generosity, this shape is no accident. In opting for this silhouette, Hermès wanted to symbolize the image of a silk square stirred by the wind. Now, Hermès silk squares have become the brand's signature. Available in several formats, they come in countless colors and delight women in search of a touch of style. Evoking this accessory thus immediately plunges us into the world of the Parisian brand.
The refined elegance of the 24 Faubourg bottle
Of course, this simple silhouette recalling the Hermès square is not enough on its own to embody all the refinement of the brand. Added to this are several subtle details, further reinforcing the prestige of this perfume. First, its transparent glass walls play with light and cast reflections in a pale yellow juice. This is very luminous, as if echoing gold but also the radiant ingredients contained in this essence. On the back of this bottle, several golden motifs are drawn. These take up a famous design from the Hermès squares, while adding a more luxurious touch to this bottle. Finally, to bring yet another touch of light to the whole, the neck of this perfume is accented with a yellow-orange trim. This glass structure is topped with a half-moon-shaped cap. The name of this perfume, for its part, appears discreetly, in fine, gilded script. To offer variety and to meet all needs, the feminine perfume 24 Faubourg by Hermès comes in several sizes. It is available in 50 ml and 100 ml spray bottles.
