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 Pour Homme

  • It brings what the other lacks — lavender, gin, clary sage.
  • Notes that are uncommon with us (gin, pine): the less conventional of the two.

Why choose Bal d'Afrique

  • Facets Pour Homme does not have: bergamot, saffron, cyclamen.
  • No offer listed for the moment.

The verdict

  • Most original

    Pour Homme — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (gin, pine)
