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 CK One

  • Its pyramid opens on jasmine, amber, nutmeg, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • Launched in 1994, it has 32 years of life behind it.

Why choose Escale à Portofino

  • cypress, galbanum, caraway: all materials absent from CK One.
  • More recent creation (2008, against 1994).
  • Notes that are uncommon with us (caraway, galbanum): the less conventional of the two.
  • No offer listed for the moment.
  • “evenings & dates” is not its register, according to the profile we calculate.

The verdict

  • Most original

    Escale à Portofino — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (caraway, galbanum)

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