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 N°5
- Its pyramid opens on vanilla, aldehydes, ylang-ylang, nowhere to be found opposite.
- aldehydic pull it towards the bright and the lively.
- Launched in 1921, it has 105 years of life behind it.
- No tracked point of sale to date.
- “summer” is not its register, according to the profile we calculate.
Why choose Aromatics Elixir
- patchouli, oakmoss, chamomile: all materials absent from N°5.
- More recent creation (1975, against 1921).
