Twilly d'Hermes Eau de Parfum is the latest addition to my perfume collection. This Hermes gift set, that I received from my husband as our anniversary present back in August, comes in gorgeous box and includes Twilly d'Hermes perfume in full size and travel size. The packaging is so beautiful that it's almost intimidating to dislike it.

The label describes this fragrance as floral, spicy, and oriental. Twilly d'Hermes was inspired by young, bold and unpredictable girl, But honestly, it smells kinda old fashionable for me.

Number one thing that turns me off about any perfume is strong alcohol smell right after applying it because it gives me headache. Sadly, that's what happens when I apply Twilly d'Hermes. Alcohol along with ginger is so dominant from the first minutes that it almost makes me feel nauseous. After a few minutes, it dries down to powdery floral scent with little bit of spicesness. Eevn after that, I don't enjoy it, I guess, it's just not for me.
Longetivity and packaging of Twilly d'Hermes
Longetivity is about 8-9 hours on me, which is great and the packaging, as you can see, is gorgeous __ the box is so beautiful and the full size bottle with a hand-tied silk ribbon is absolutely adorable.

Final thoughts
I really wanted to enjoy wearing this fragrance but unfortunately, it's not for me __ it's overpowering, with stong alcohol, and ginger note at the beginning. I love other perfumes from Hermes, especially Eau de Marveilles, that is my all time favorite fragrance, so I expected so much more from Hermes. If you love strong, bold scent, you might like this fragrance, in that case it will worth to spend $130 on it.
