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 Chance Eau Vive

  • orange, grapefruit, cedar: all materials absent from Calandre.
  • It is 46 years younger (2015 against 1969).
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.

Why choose Calandre

  • Its pyramid opens on aldehydes, oakmoss, rose, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • Launched in 1969, it has 57 years of life behind it.

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.
