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 Sweet William

  • It brings what the other lacks — pepper, styrax, cardamom.
  • Its formula is out of the ordinary — galangal, styrax are among the least common notes in our database.
  • The more expensive of the two (from €115.00).
  • “spring” is not its register, according to the profile we calculate.

Why choose Classique

  • The entry price is lower: €42.90 against €115.00.
  • Facets Sweet William does not have: rose, ginger, orchid.

The verdict

  • Best price

    Classique — €72.10 difference in its favour

  • Most original

    Sweet William — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (galangal, styrax)
