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 Burberry London for Men

  • It brings what the other lacks — tobacco, leather, bergamot.
  • 20 years of existence (2006): it has proved itself for longer.
  • Notes that are uncommon with us (port, mimosa): the less conventional of the two.
  • No offer listed for the moment.
  • Eau de Toilette: the formula is more diluted than its rival's.

Why choose Sauvage Elixir

  • Richer concentration (Extrait de Parfum against Eau de Toilette): higher theoretical longevity.
  • Facets Burberry London for Men does not have: cardamom, patchouli, amber.
  • warm spicy and amber give it a roundness the other lacks.
  • It is 15 years younger (2021 against 2006).
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.

The verdict

  • Most concentrated

    Sauvage Elixir — an extrait de parfum formula against an eau de toilette

  • Most enveloping

    Sauvage Elixir — signature carried by warm spicy and amber

  • Most original

    Burberry London for Men — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (port, mimosa)

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