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 Bad Boy

  • Facets Encelade does not have: pepper, cocoa, clary sage.
  • Markedly fresher, carried by aromatic.
  • More versatile according to our calculated profile (7 contexts out of 8, against 5).
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
  • Less concentrated (Eau de Toilette), it should last less long.

Why choose Encelade

  • It is more concentrated — Eau de Parfum where the other is eau de toilette — so theoretically more tenacious.
  • It brings what the other lacks — cardamom, ginger, nutmeg.
  • warm spicy and amber give it a roundness the other lacks.
  • Our calculated profile does not see it on “spring” ground.

The verdict

  • Most concentrated

    Encelade — Eau de Parfum, so more material than an eau de toilette

  • Freshest

    Bad Boy — signature carried by aromatic

  • Most enveloping

    Encelade — signature carried by warm spicy and amber

  • Most versatile

    Bad Boy — it holds 7 of the 8 contexts we calculate, the other 5

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