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 Himalaya

  • Budget in its favour — €220.00 against €350.00.
  • Facets Elysium does not have: bergamot, sandalwood, ambergris.
  • 24 years of existence (2002): it has proved itself for longer.
  • Our calculated profile does not see it on “evenings & dates” ground.

Why choose Elysium

  • It brings what the other lacks — jasmine, amber, vetiver.
  • Markedly more enveloping, carried by amber.
  • It is 15 years younger (2017 against 2002).
  • Expect €350.00 at the very least, more than its rival.

The verdict

  • Best price

    Himalaya — from €220.00 against €350.00

  • Most enveloping

    Elysium — signature carried by amber
