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 Aqva Pour Homme

  • It costs less: from €91.00, while the other starts at €96.60.
  • It brings what the other lacks — sandalwood, mandarin, posidonia.
  • Freshness dominates, with marine and aromatic in the lead.
  • 21 years of existence (2005): it has proved itself for longer.
  • Less concentrated (Eau de Toilette), it should last less long.
  • “winter” is not its register, according to the profile we calculate.

Why choose Oud Minérale

  • It is more concentrated — Eau de Parfum where the other is eau de toilette — so theoretically more tenacious.
  • Facets Aqva Pour Homme does not have: woody notes, oud, white musk.
  • amber give it a roundness the other lacks.
  • Our calculated profile has it at ease in 8 situations out of 8, where the other holds 5.
  • Expect €96.60 at the very least, more than its rival.
