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 Coromandel

  • Richer concentration (Eau de Parfum against Eau de Toilette): higher theoretical longevity.
  • patchouli, incense, iris: all materials absent from Dune.
  • Warmth wins out, with amber and patchouli in support.
  • Released in 2007, when the other dates from 1991.
  • No offer listed for the moment.
  • “spring” is not its register, according to the profile we calculate.

Why choose Dune

  • Its pyramid opens on mandarin, carnation, jasmine, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • It covers more ground: 7 contexts out of 8 according to our calculated profile, against 5.
  • More track record: launched in 1991, it has been worn for 35 years.
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
  • Less concentrated (Eau de Toilette), it should last less long.

The verdict

  • Most concentrated

    Coromandel — Eau de Parfum, so more material than an eau de toilette

  • Most enveloping

    Coromandel — signature carried by amber and patchouli

  • Most versatile

    Dune — 7 situations out of 8 suit it, against 5 for the other

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