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 VIP Men

  • Facets Sicilian Leather does not have: ginger, lemon, cardamom.
  • citrus pull it towards the bright and the lively.
  • 15 years of existence (2011): it has proved itself for longer.
  • Notes that are uncommon with us (mint, ginger): the less conventional of the two.
  • No offer listed for the moment.
  • Less concentrated (Eau de Toilette), it should last less long.

Why choose Sicilian Leather

  • Eau de Parfum against eau de toilette: more material, and a longer expected longevity.
  • It brings what the other lacks — saffron, sandalwood, tuberose.
  • Warmth wins out, with leather and amber in support.
  • It is 10 years younger (2021 against 2011).
  • Our calculated profile does not see it on “everyday” ground.
