What are they for?
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 Intensa
- Its pyramid opens on bergamot, cardamom, myrtle, nowhere to be found opposite.
- Markedly fresher, carried by citrus.
- Our calculated profile has it at ease in 8 situations out of 8, where the other holds 5.
- No offer listed for the moment.
- Less concentrated (Eau de Cologne), it should last less long.
Why choose Incensum
- It is more concentrated — Eau de Parfum where the other is eau de cologne — so theoretically more tenacious.
- pyrogenated incense: all materials absent from Colonia Intensa.
- leather and warm spicy give it a roundness the other lacks.
- More atypical composition in our catalogue (rare notes: pyrogenated incense, ginger).
- Less at ease in the “spring” context according to our calculated profile.
