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 Sacred Flame
- Its pyramid opens on rose, tuberose, grapefruit, nowhere to be found opposite.
- It covers more ground: 7 contexts out of 8 according to our calculated profile, against 5.
- Notes that are uncommon with us (opopanax, clove): the less conventional of the two.
- The more expensive of the two (from €258.95).
Why choose Obsession
- Budget in its favour — €38.83 against €258.95.
- orange blossom, white musk: all materials absent from Sacred Flame.
- Markedly more enveloping, carried by amber and warm spicy.
- “spring” is not its register, according to the profile we calculate.
