hello, I just received my new Ulysee with plain paper. And the paper is really thin. I can almost see through it! I afraid to use it because I have a feeling it can be thorn with a pen! And I don’t want to see what I’ve written on a previous page. I’ve expected to have kind of thick one Hermès uses for greeting cards. Maybe lined paper or agenda are better choice?

I’m not familiar with the plain paper. I’ve only used the perpetual calendar insert & it’s lovely. If you’re still within your return window, you should be able to return it & get different insert.

Don't be fooled, it might look thin and see-through but it's really not. Get writing ;)

Thank you very much for inspiring me to try the plain notebook out! I worked with a pencil, then ink, then erased pencil and I can even use the paper from both sides! Very impressed with the quality!
And here is my Ulysse in Gold :smile: Love to touch it :nuts:

Very cool!
I'm glad you gave it a try. When I first got mine, I felt the same way you did and thought the paper quite strange but now I love it.

So glad you tried it & love it!! I never thought I would pay this much for a small planner insert, but I’m hooked[emoji7] I’ll never go back to a lesser quality paper[emoji23]

BTW...that gold is BEAUTIFUL[emoji3531][emoji3531][emoji3531]

Hi! For the PM size, I'm wondering if anyone knows if a refill has to have exactly 11 spirals? I'm trying to find an A6 agenda that better fits my needs than the one on hermes.com (I just purchased a pre-loved taupe PM with blank pages), but unsure if I'll be able to attached it if it has more than 11 spirals. Thanks! :)
 
I am sure this answer is here somewhere but I read a lot of pages and am still confused. If I buy a cover sized MM, what size insert should I be looking for? (H site or alternatives?)
 
I've been looking for information about * Ulysse * and there are many threads with a little bit here and a little bit there... so I thought it'd be a good idea to have it all together and updated for 2009.
Please share your info too and of course pics :yes:

So let's start with SIZE, I believe there are three:

TPM/Mini - 4" x 4.5"
PM - 5.5" x 6.25"
MM - 7.5" x 9"

Now LEATHER, correct me pls if I'm wrong:
- Togo
- Veau Kenya
- fabric: embossed felt

COLORS, oh soooo many:
- Black, Etoupe, Rouge G, Vermillion, Orange, Curry, Gold, Soleil, Jaune Fluo, Vert Anis, Vert Olive, BdP, Bleu Jean, Lagon, Rose Shocking, Rose Fluo, Raisin...?

And finally INSERTS - definitely need your help with these... even SAs are confused :rolleyes:

Mini:
- white plain (with lined guide?)
- alphabetical
- H in the city
- post-it notes
- perpetual calendar (!!!)
- ... ?

PM:
- white plain with lined guide ($45)
- white plain separated by colored into three parts
- colored plain
- white lined
- photo album
- travel
- business cards
- ... ?

MM:
- white plain with lined guide ($55)
- colored plain
- alphabetical
- ... ?


And current PRICE of course (covers / covers with plain inserts):

Mini - ? / ?
PM - $185 / $230
MM - $255 / $310

:cutesy:
I have the Ulysse GM (Leather Note Book Cover, and it's really a substantially large size) in Orange Leather, the Vision Agenda Cover (Leather Agenda Cover) in Orange Leather and the Carmencita (Leather Agenda Page Holder) in Orange Leather (all are the exact same color as on the orange Hermes box)

Other than Ulysse and agenda series, anyone is using eazip book cover? Could you share your user experience?

@HermesLoverJen - I have a PM Eazip in black chèvre that I picked up in Japan last year and I love it (although at present it is getting almost zero use). I have the quarterly inserts which keep it slim and gives me a page per day. It has far more structure than a Ulysse and the zippered pouch at the front comes in handy.
