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 212 Sexy

  • Facets Safari does not have: bergamot, white musk, cotton flower.
  • It is 14 years younger (2004 against 1990).
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.

Why choose Safari

  • It brings what the other lacks — narcissus, jasmine, oakmoss.
  • More track record: launched in 1990, it has been worn for 36 years.
  • Notes that are uncommon with us (marigold, narcissus): the less conventional of the two.
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.

The verdict

  • Most original

    Safari — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (marigold, narcissus)

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