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

  • Eau de Toilette against eau de cologne: more material, and a longer expected longevity.
  • Its pyramid opens on amber, nutmeg, cedar, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • Its formula is out of the ordinary — pineapple, nutmeg are among the least common notes in our database.

Why choose Lime Basil & Mandarin

  • tea, vetiver, patchouli: all materials absent from CK One.
  • Markedly fresher, carried by citrus and green.
  • No tracked point of sale to date.
  • Less concentrated (Eau de Cologne), it should last less long.

The verdict

  • Most concentrated

    CK One — Eau de Toilette, so more material than an eau de cologne

  • Freshest

    Lime Basil & Mandarin — signature carried by citrus and green

  • Most original

    CK One — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (pineapple, nutmeg)
