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

  • vanilla, aldehydes, ylang-ylang: all materials absent from Idôle Aura.
  • Markedly fresher, carried by aldehydic.
  • Launched in 1921, it has 105 years of life behind it.
  • Notes that are uncommon with us (aldehydes, ylang-ylang): the less conventional of the two.
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
  • Less at ease in the “summer” context according to our calculated profile.

Why choose Idôle Aura

  • It is 101 years younger (2022 against 1921).
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
  • Less at ease in the “winter” context according to our calculated profile.

The verdict

  • Freshest

    N°5 — signature carried by aldehydic

  • Most original

    N°5 — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (aldehydes, ylang-ylang)
