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 Midas Touch
- It is more concentrated — Extrait de Parfum where the other is eau de parfum — so theoretically more tenacious.
- It brings what the other lacks — patchouli, rose, bergamot.
- citrus pull it towards the bright and the lively.
- It covers more ground: 8 contexts out of 8 according to our calculated profile, against 6.
- Expect €354.95 at the very least, more than its rival.
Why choose Original Oud
- The entry price is lower: €210.00 against €354.95.
- Facets Midas Touch does not have: geranium.
- amber give it a roundness the other lacks.
- Its formula is out of the ordinary — balsam, geranium are among the least common notes in our database.
- Less concentrated (Eau de Parfum), it should last less long.
- “summer” is not its register, according to the profile we calculate.
