Who created Hermès’s H24 men’s fragrance?

Christine Nagel created Hermès’s H24 men’s fragrance.

Nagel became Hermès’s in-house perfumer after Jean-Claude Ellena and created H24 as a modern men’s fragrance. The line debuted in 2021, with the name referring to the 24 hours in a day. Its concept emphasizes contemporary urban life and an active, everyday sense of time.

The original H24 fragrance is associated with fresh, green, and aromatic impressions. Hermès later expanded the line with additional versions, including stronger concentrations and flankers, while retaining the H24 name.

Jean-Claude Ellena is the key name linked with Terre d’Hermès, not H24. That distinction matters because both perfumers held the house’s principal perfumer role at different times and are associated with major Hermès fragrance launches.
