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 Reflection Man
- Its pyramid opens on rosemary, pepper, cedar, nowhere to be found opposite.
- It is 86 years younger (2007 against 1921).
- Notes that are uncommon with us (rosemary, ylang-ylang): the less conventional of the two.
- Less at ease in the “winter” context according to our calculated profile.
Why choose N°5
- rose, vanilla, aldehydes: all materials absent from Reflection Man.
- 105 years of existence (1921): it has proved itself for longer.
- No tracked point of sale to date.
- Our calculated profile does not see it on “summer” ground.
The verdict
-
Most original
Reflection Man — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (rosemary, ylang-ylang)
Each trophy applies to a specific use, not in absolute terms.
