This is such a fun thread! Totally agree that it's all a matter of taste, and one's trash is another's treasure. :biggrin:

The popular colour that sets my teeth on edge is anemone. Also don't like etoupe, etain, crevette or bleu jean.

Exactly, it’s such a personal thing, I’m sure others hate my fav colors...

Same here about anemone: no thank you! Hate it.

I also really dislike VC, although I like other light colors, and love darker green shades. Dunno why it puts me off so bad.
 
I have to agree that most Hermès colors really do work with the right outfit or èlan, and there is always a customer to be found for any given color. With that said, I'm not a fan of Crevette (looks much better in photos than what I've seen in person, which was fluorescent, so that might depend on the leather) and - shudder! - Origan.
 
It is fascinating to me how polarizing Etoupe seems to be. I wouldn't have guessed that a neutral would be so loved/hated. But, since the H chameleon/undertones are so vivid I guess that even neutrals tap into our color emotions.

(Personally I love Etoupe but maybe that's partially because my only Etoupe bag was road-tested in the most challenging way and came out like a champ.)
