The scent fingerprint
What brings them together, what sets them apart
How they evolve on the skin
Notes shared by both perfumes.
What are they for?
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.

- More track record: launched in 1955, it has been worn for 71 years.
- Its formula is out of the ordinary — petitgrain, basil are among the least common notes in our database.
