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 Cristalle
- Richer concentration (Eau de Toilette against Eau de Cologne): higher theoretical longevity.
- It brings what the other lacks — honeysuckle, oakmoss, blackcurrant leaf.
- Launched in 1974, it has 52 years of life behind it.
- More atypical composition in our catalogue (rare notes: blackcurrant leaf, honeysuckle).
- We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
Why choose Lime Basil & Mandarin
- Facets Cristalle does not have: tea, patchouli, mandarin.
- More recent creation (1999, against 1974).
- No tracked point of sale to date.
- Less concentrated (Eau de Cologne), it should last less long.
The verdict
-
Most concentrated
Cristalle — Eau de Toilette, so more material than an eau de cologne
-
Most original
Cristalle — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (blackcurrant leaf, honeysuckle)
