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 LouLou

  • mandarin, plum, violet: all materials absent from Terracotta Le Parfum.
  • Launched in 1987, it has 39 years of life behind it.
  • Its formula is out of the ordinary — plum, violet are among the least common notes in our database.

Why choose Terracotta Le Parfum

  • Its pyramid opens on coconut, bergamot, jasmine, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • Markedly more enveloping, carried by gourmand.
  • It is 27 years younger (2014 against 1987).
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.

The verdict

  • Most enveloping

    Terracotta Le Parfum — signature carried by gourmand

  • Most original

    LouLou — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (plum, violet)
