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 005 Riviera Absolue
- It is more concentrated — Extrait de Parfum where the other is eau de cologne — so theoretically more tenacious.
- tomato leaf: all materials absent from Lime Basil & Mandarin.
- Freshness dominates, with aromatic in the lead.
- It covers more ground: 7 contexts out of 8 according to our calculated profile, against 5.
Why choose Lime Basil & Mandarin
- Its pyramid opens on lemon, vetiver, patchouli, nowhere to be found opposite.
- No tracked point of sale to date.
- Less concentrated (Eau de Cologne), it should last less long.
The verdict

Most concentrated
005 Riviera Absolue — Extrait de Parfum, so more material than an eau de cologne
-
Freshest
005 Riviera Absolue — signature carried by aromatic
-
Most versatile
005 Riviera Absolue — it holds 7 of the 8 contexts we calculate, the other 5
-
Most original
005 Riviera Absolue — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (tomato leaf, tea)
