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 14 Juillet

  • It is more concentrated — Eau de Parfum where the other is eau de toilette — so theoretically more tenacious.
  • It brings what the other lacks — fireworks, benzoin, labdanum.
  • More atypical composition in our catalogue (rare notes: fireworks, violet leaf).
  • The more expensive of the two (from €145.00).

Why choose Polo Black

  • The entry price is lower: €49.39 against €145.00.
  • Facets 14 Juillet does not have: clary sage, amber, mango.
  • Lighter concentration (Eau de Toilette): lower theoretical longevity.
  • “summer” is not its register, according to the profile we calculate.
