Hermès 24 Faubourg Jeu De Lignes et de Lumiere is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2009. 24 Faubourg Jeu De Lignes et de Lumiere opens with Hyacinth, Bergamot, Orange, and Ylang-Ylang, settles into a heart of Elderflower, Orange Blossom, Jasmine, and Iris, and dries down to a base of Amber, Sandalwood, Patchouli, and Vanilla. Hermès's 24 Faubourg Jeu De Lignes et de Lumiere carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This is a grown-up floral that demands respect without being stuffy. Not a wallflower, but a classic in the making, and while some find its formality daunting, others champion its timeless elegance.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Fall

Built on floral, sweet and citrus - a composition that sits best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its sophisticated floral-amber profile makes it well-suited for formal events and evening wear, lending an air of refinement. While perhaps too strong for a casual day out, its elegance can certainly elevate a special date or a professional setting if applied lightly.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Vanillin from Vanilla
  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

It kicks off with a bright, peachy burst softened by ylang-ylang and delicate hyacinth. The heart expands into a rich bouquet of orange blossom, jasmine, and sweet elderflower, adding a creamy, almost powdery depth. The base settles into a warm embrace of patchouli, amber, and creamy sandalwood, lingering with a touch of vanilla for a sophisticated dry-down.
