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 1957

  • It is 93 years younger (2019 against 1926).
  • No offer listed for the moment.

Why choose Bois des Îles

  • Facets 1957 does not have: sandalwood, rose, ylang-ylang.
  • More track record: launched in 1926, it has been worn for 100 years.
  • No tracked point of sale to date.

The verdict

These two perfumes are too close to separate any trophies: same family, same register. The choice comes down to the details above — and to your skin.
