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 Clémentine California

  • Eau de Parfum against eau de toilette: more material, and a longer expected longevity.
  • It brings what the other lacks — mandarin, jasmine, vetiver.
  • Released in 2016, when the other dates from 2005.
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.

Why choose Un Jardin sur le Nil

  • Facets Clémentine California does not have: grapefruit, lotus, incense.
  • More track record: launched in 2005, it has been worn for 21 years.
  • Its formula is out of the ordinary — lotus, orange are among the least common notes in our database.
  • No offer listed for the moment.
  • Less concentrated (Eau de Toilette), it should last less long.

The verdict

  • Most concentrated

    Clémentine California — Eau de Parfum, so more material than an eau de toilette

  • Most original

    Un Jardin sur le Nil — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (lotus, orange)
