Step inside the whimsical world of Hermès this festive season. Hungarian designer Tibor Kárpáti reimagines the house’s historic Paris address in a vibrant, pixel-perfect universe—where dancers move from floor to terrace to the beat of an electric melody. A celebration that extends far beyond 24 Faubourg Saint-Honoré, captured beautifully in this limited-edition Eau des Merveilles gift set.

A radiant, woody-amber fragrance, Eau des Merveilles blends warm benzoin, spicy elemi, and the sparkle of bitter orange—an enchanting balance of depth and light.

Gift Set Includes:
• Eau des Merveilles Eau de Toilette 50ml
• Eau des Merveilles Eau de Toilette 15ml (travel size)

A truly magical keepsake, beautifully presented and available now at Minihan’s.

About us

Minihan’s Chemist, established by Liam Minihan in 1955, is located at the corner of Oliver Plunkett Street and Winthrop Street, serving the needs of the people of Cork for over 60 years.

Today the business is operated by his nephew John Minihan and his wife Trish who took over the business in 1995.

Minihan’s has survived many changes in the retail environment and many recessions since opening, however retains its distinctive shop front at 108 Oliver Plunkett Street (opposite the GPO).
