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

  • It brings what the other lacks — rose, vanilla, aldehydes.
  • Freshness dominates, with aldehydic in the lead.
  • It covers more ground: 7 contexts out of 8 according to our calculated profile, against 5.
  • 105 years of existence (1921): it has proved itself for longer.
  • No tracked point of sale to date.

Why choose Love in White

  • Facets N°5 does not have: orange peel, ambergris, blackcurrant.
  • More recent creation (2005, against 1921).
  • More atypical composition in our catalogue (rare notes: orange peel, rice).
  • Our calculated profile does not see it on “winter” ground.

The verdict

  • Freshest

    N°5 — signature carried by aldehydic

  • Most versatile

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

  • Most original

    Love in White — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (orange peel, rice)

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