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 Colonia Essenza
- Its pyramid opens on rose, myrtle, patchouli, nowhere to be found opposite.
- More recent creation (2010, against 1966).
- Its formula is out of the ordinary — myrtle, petitgrain are among the least common notes in our database.
- We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
- Less concentrated (Eau de Cologne), it should last less long.
Why choose Eau Sauvage
- Richer concentration (Eau de Toilette against Eau de Cologne): higher theoretical longevity.
- rosemary, white musk: all materials absent from Colonia Essenza.
- citrus and aromatic pull it towards the bright and the lively.
- Launched in 1966, it has 60 years of life behind it.
- We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
- “evenings & dates” is not its register, according to the profile we calculate.
The verdict
-
Most concentrated
Eau Sauvage — Eau de Toilette against Eau de Cologne
-
Freshest
Eau Sauvage — signature carried by citrus and aromatic
-
Most original
Colonia Essenza — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (myrtle, petitgrain)
