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 Birth of Venus
- narcissus, orange blossom, raspberry: all materials absent from Sacred Flame.
- citrus pull it towards the bright and the lively.
Why choose Sacred Flame
- Its pyramid opens on tuberose, violet, mandarin, nowhere to be found opposite.
- amber and warm spicy give it a roundness the other lacks.
- Less at ease in the “summer” context according to our calculated profile.
