I placed my order on March 7 (for 1 lippie: Rose Encens), received a confirmation email that day, and then received an email today, March 9, telling me that they were shipping it. So in my case, it was two days. Which I thought was pretty impressive, considering how quickly these are selling!
It is starting to look like the lipsticks arriving from Hermes Online are no longer being packaged in orange boxes with ribbons (from the posts I am seeing). Can anyone confirm?
This was how my online order arrived today with three boxed lipsticks inside.

I think it may depend on how many you purchase in one order. I got three, individually. All ordered on release day (10 am, noon, and 6pm) and all received, individually, within 36 hrs of ordering. None of mine came in a larger orange gift box but rather just paper-tied to the receipt booklet. No ribbons. I think if you order a few, they put them in an orange box to secure them together better.
Justapixel, you are wonderful to send me such good information on fragrance in the lip colors! You’ve allayed my worries, and I will be patient as I am thrilled to hear the fragrance dissipates. I used to wear perfume, but in my twenties it started to bother me to the point where my eyes burned and watered when I wore it and depending on how close I stood to someone that was wearing it it happened then too. Don’t know if it’s a slight allergy, but it has been miserable since. Fragrance in some makeup and lotions and face products is just fine, hopefully this will be too.@DrTr You and I are dog nose twins, except I like the smell of fragrance. I can always tell when somebody is wearing something and if it’s cheap or not, or if they smoke, have eaten onions, and if there is mildew around or something is on fire. I’m the one who says, “what is that smell?” and nobody else can smell it.
So you are likely to pickup on the fragrance in this lipstick, unless it’s limited to the color I have. It is rather strong, and not entirely pleasant, but that, of course, is individual. It does not smell like perfume but does smell like Hermes, if that makes sense. However, it did disappear entirely in 15 minutes or so, so wait it out. The scent fades to nothing. As you can see, I put it on rather lightly, mostly because I wasn’t feeling well and wasn’t going anywhere, but I still got that fragrance.
For the record, the color faded beautifully. After that photo I put one more coat on (didn’t change color, just evened it.) I had water, dinner, and by the time I took it off my lips were still very faintly tinted-evenly. Which was pleasant.
Ladies, I’ve not seen one shade that looks anything but beautiful on all of you. Either you are all remarkable at picking lipstick or Hermes has created wizardry.
@twoblues Thank you for the tip. I managed to get the Beige Kalahari from Bloomingdales, and now, still waiting for three others, I think I’m done with expensive lippies. Until they need a refill, of course.. I certainly hope that can be done online as I think my husband would balk at a trip to Vegas for lipstick.

And I’ll try to forget the scarves I want dancing in my head,(at least until my birthday next month.)
and I so agree - everyone that models the colors here looks marvelous. I’m thinking people here are remarkable at choosing and H has created wizardry! Thanks again for your very helpful response and can’t wait to see all your colors!
I posted my online order here, #548. No ribbons around the lipstick boxes but it came with a dustbag inside the orange box. A friend ordered 2 lipsticks and hers came with just a paper wrap.

Ordered on March 4, arrived next day but now H website says its has a 2 days delay when ordering beauty products.
This is the colour I’ve been trying to order, but it’s currently sold out!
Wearing my Satin Rose Lipstick yesterday. It reads as a pink/coral on me, which is fine since I have Rose Mexique for a bright pink, and the orange toned ones I tried just simply didn't work on me. I went into the boutique wanting a pink, a red and a coral, and interestingly this is the one that fit the coral bill the best!
Lovely like the others you have shared! They go so well with your scarves too
I have a few on my wish list now that I know how lovely they are! I’m hoping they restock sooner than later!
I tried it in last night and the texture is amazing, better than Tom Ford IMO.
It was too dark for pics by then unfortunately.
Quick pic this am in natural (albeit grey rainy) light... Rose Encens
