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 Man in Black

  • benzoin, tuberose, pepper: all materials absent from Homme.
  • Warmth wins out, with leather and amber in support.
  • More atypical composition in our catalogue (rare notes: tobacco blossom, tobacco).
  • Less at ease in the “office” context according to our calculated profile.

Why choose Homme

  • Its pyramid opens on bergamot, cardamom, blackcurrant, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • Our calculated profile has it at ease in 6 situations out of 8, where the other holds 4.
  • No tracked point of sale to date.

The verdict

  • Most enveloping

    Man in Black — signature carried by leather and amber

  • Most versatile

    Homme — at ease in 6 contexts out of 8, against 4

  • Most original

    Man in Black — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (tobacco blossom, tobacco)
