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
- Its pyramid opens on vetiver, lemon, lavender, nowhere to be found opposite.
- citrus and aromatic pull it towards the bright and the lively.
- More track record: launched in 1916, it has been worn for 110 years.
- We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
- Our calculated profile does not see it on “evenings & dates” ground.
Why choose English Oak & Redcurrant
- redcurrant, oak: all materials absent from Colonia.
- Released in 2017, when the other dates from 1916.
- Notes that are uncommon with us (redcurrant, oak): the less conventional of the two.
- We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
