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 Crème de Cuir

  • Its pyramid opens on cardamom, vanilla, saffron, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • Warmth wins out, with leather and gourmand in support.
  • No tracked point of sale to date.
  • Our calculated profile does not see it on “spring” ground.

Why choose Icon

  • neroli, bergamot, orange blossom: all materials absent from Crème de Cuir.
  • It covers more ground: 7 contexts out of 8 according to our calculated profile, against 5.
  • No tracked point of sale to date.

The verdict
