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 nutmeg, cedar, violet, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • Launched in 1994, it has 32 years of life behind it.
  • Eau de Toilette: the formula is more diluted than its rival's.

Why choose Mandarino di Amalfi

  • Richer concentration (Eau de Parfum against Eau de Toilette): higher theoretical longevity.
  • basil, mint, woody notes: all materials absent from CK One.
  • Freshness dominates, with citrus and green in the lead.
  • Released in 2014, when the other dates from 1994.
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
  • Less at ease in the “evenings & dates” context according to our calculated profile.

The verdict

  • Most concentrated

    Mandarino di Amalfi — Eau de Parfum against Eau de Toilette

  • Freshest

    Mandarino di Amalfi — signature carried by citrus and green
