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 1932

  • It is more concentrated — Eau de Parfum where the other is eau de toilette — so theoretically more tenacious.
  • Markedly more enveloping, carried by amber.
  • Our calculated profile has it at ease in 8 situations out of 8, where the other holds 6.
  • More recent creation (2013, against 1969).
  • No offer listed for the moment.

Why choose Calandre

  • It brings what the other lacks — oakmoss, geranium, green notes.
  • Launched in 1969, it has 57 years of life behind it.
  • More atypical composition in our catalogue (rare notes: green notes, aldehydes).
  • Eau de Toilette: the formula is more diluted than its rival's.
  • Our calculated profile does not see it on “winter” ground.

The verdict

  • Most concentrated

    1932 — an eau de parfum formula against an eau de toilette

  • Most enveloping

    1932 — signature carried by amber

  • Most versatile

    1932 — 8 situations out of 8 suit it, against 6 for the other

  • Most original

    Calandre — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (green notes, aldehydes)

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