Which Should You Buy?
A woody-citrus marvel that rewrites feminine perfumery with its non-floral, resin-laced transparency. Both sparkling and contemplative, it's the ultimate refined skin scent for those who crave subtle intrigue.
No.408 follows Hermes' Eau des Merveilles, pairing a piney citrus opening with an amber-pink pepper heart and a mossy, woody base. The unusual, almost salty-woody character of the original comes through, giving it a distinctive, vintage-leaning feel.

Performance
Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
The citrus and resinous woods give it vibrance for spring and fall, while its lack of heavy sweetness or powder makes it less suited to deep winter. It can work in summer on cooler days thanks to its airiness and subtle spice.
Occasions
Its subtle projection and refined woody-citrus profile make it perfect for daytime, office, and casual wear, while its quiet sophistication can fit understated dates. It's too restrained for sport and not opulent enough for formal events.
