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 Dia Man

  • Richer concentration (Eau de Parfum against Eau de Toilette): higher theoretical longevity.
  • It brings what the other lacks — guaiac wood, tea, rose.
  • Launched in 2002, it has 24 years of life behind it.
  • No tracked point of sale to date.

Why choose Gentlemen Only Blue

  • Facets Dia Man does not have: patchouli, cardamom, juniper.
  • It is 12 years younger (2014 against 2002).
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
  • Less concentrated (Eau de Toilette), it should last less long.

The verdict

  • Most concentrated

    Dia Man — Eau de Parfum, so more material than an eau de toilette
