Which Should You Buy?
A benchmark masculine scent that balances vibrant citrus with dry minerals and earthy woods. Effortlessly refined and distinctive, it exudes natural confidence and quiet strength without ever shouting.
No. 481 nods to Hermes Terre d'Hermes' earthy citrus-vetiver signature, but the mineral, flinty depth that defines the original is largely absent, leaving a simpler grapefruit-and-vetiver accord that fades faster.

Performance
Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
The dry, mineral citrus and woody backbone excel in mild to warm weather, making spring and fall ideal. The brightness works in summer but earthy facets can feel dense in heat, while the lack of sweetness and moderate warmth limit its winter appeal.
Occasions
Its refined, understated projection and clean, earthy profile are perfect for the office or smart-casual wear, while the mineral character offers confident uniqueness for dates. The subtle sillage is less suited for formal events or energetic sports settings.
