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 Eau de Cartier

- More versatile according to our calculated profile (7 contexts out of 8, against 5).
- Released in 2001, when the other dates from 1988.

Why choose Cool Water
