How is it calculated?

These markers are an editorial estimate calculated automatically from the perfume's real accords and their intensity, following the classic reading of scent families (hesperidics and aromatics shine in summer and at the office, ambers and gourmands in winter and in the evening…). They do not come from user votes and do not replace a test on skin.

Why choose one… or the other?

Why choose Eau des Merveilles

  • driftwood, ambergris, fleur de sel: all materials absent from Terre d'Hermès.
  • Notes that are uncommon with us (fleur de sel, driftwood): the less conventional of the two.
  • No tracked point of sale to date.

Why choose Terre d'Hermès

  • Its pyramid opens on geranium, grapefruit, patchouli, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • citrus and fresh spicy pull it towards the bright and the lively.
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
  • “night” is not its register, according to the profile we calculate.

The verdict

  • Freshest

    Terre d'Hermès — signature carried by citrus and fresh spicy

  • Most original

    Eau des Merveilles — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (fleur de sel, driftwood)

Each trophy applies to a specific use, not in absolute terms.
