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 Coco Noir
- Richer concentration (Eau de Parfum against Eau de Toilette): higher theoretical longevity.
- It brings what the other lacks — benzoin, vanilla, sandalwood.
- Warmth wins out, with amber and patchouli in support.
- It is 34 years younger (2012 against 1978).
- We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
- “summer” is not its register, according to the profile we calculate.
Why choose Magie Noire
- Facets Coco Noir does not have: raspberry, oakmoss, tuberose.
- More track record: launched in 1978, it has been worn for 48 years.
- Notes that are uncommon with us (civet, raspberry): the less conventional of the two.
- Less concentrated (Eau de Toilette), it should last less long.
The verdict
-
Most concentrated
Coco Noir — Eau de Parfum, so more material than an eau de toilette
-
Most enveloping
Coco Noir — signature carried by amber and patchouli
-
Most original
Magie Noire — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (civet, raspberry)
