Note Pyramid

Hermessence Vetiver Tonka by Hermès is a Woody Chypre fragrance for women and men. Hermessence Vetiver Tonka was launched in 2004. The nose behind this fragrance is Jean-Claude Ellena. The fragrance features Vetyver, Tonka Bean, Hazelnut, Tobacco, Praline, Caramel, Sandalwood and Lily-of-the-Valley.
