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 Riviera Drive

  • Eau de Parfum against eau de toilette: more material, and a longer expected longevity.
  • Facets Cool Water does not have: cedar leaf, cashmere wood, lemon.
  • More versatile according to our calculated profile (7 contexts out of 8, against 5).
  • Notes that are uncommon with us (marjoram, cedar leaf): the less conventional of the two.
  • Expect €210.00 at the very least, more than its rival.

Why choose Cool Water

  • The cheaper of the two: from €34.90, against €210.00.
  • It brings what the other lacks — mint, geranium, neroli.
  • marine and aromatic pull it towards the bright and the lively.
  • Eau de Toilette: the formula is more diluted than its rival's.
  • Our calculated profile does not see it on “winter” ground.

The verdict

  • Best price

    Cool Water — €34.90 at the low end, while the other starts at €210.00

  • Most concentrated

    Riviera Drive — an eau de parfum formula against an eau de toilette

  • Freshest

    Cool Water — signature carried by marine and aromatic

  • Most versatile

    Riviera Drive — it holds 7 of the 8 contexts we calculate, the other 5

  • Most original

    Riviera Drive — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (marjoram, cedar leaf)

Each trophy applies to a specific use, not in absolute terms.
