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 CH

  • It brings what the other lacks — jasmine, grapefruit, praline.
  • More versatile according to our calculated profile (8 contexts out of 8, against 6).
  • More track record: launched in 2007, it has been worn for 19 years.
  • No offer listed for the moment.

Why choose The Afternoon of a Faun

  • Facets CH does not have: myrrh, rose, incense.
  • Released in 2016, when the other dates from 2007.
  • Its formula is out of the ordinary — immortelle, myrrh are among the least common notes in our database.
  • Less at ease in the “spring” context according to our calculated profile.

The verdict

  • Most versatile

    CH — 8 situations out of 8 suit it, against 6 for the other

  • Most original
