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
- It costs less: from €21.20, while the other starts at €350.00.
- It brings what the other lacks — bergamot, nutmeg, mandarin.
- Markedly fresher, carried by citrus and aromatic.
- 32 years of existence (1994): it has proved itself for longer.
- Eau de Toilette: the formula is more diluted than its rival's.
Why choose Elysium
- Eau de Parfum against eau de toilette: more material, and a longer expected longevity.
- Facets CK One does not have: grapefruit, vetiver, blackcurrant.
- amber give it a roundness the other lacks.
- More recent creation (2017, against 1994).
- The more expensive of the two (from €350.00).
