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 Boy Chanel

  • Eau de Parfum against eau de toilette: more material, and a longer expected longevity.
  • Facets Kouros does not have: moss, citrus, rose.
  • It is 35 years younger (2016 against 1981).
  • No offer listed for the moment.
  • “night” is not its register, according to the profile we calculate.

Why choose Kouros

  • It brings what the other lacks — bergamot, orange blossom, leather.
  • Warmth wins out, with leather in support.
  • More track record: launched in 1981, it has been worn for 45 years.
  • Eau de Toilette: the formula is more diluted than its rival's.

The verdict

  • Most concentrated

    Boy Chanel — an eau de parfum formula against an eau de toilette

  • Most enveloping

    Kouros — signature carried by leather
