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 Love in White

  • Its pyramid opens on orange peel, ambergris, blackcurrant, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • It is 16 years younger (2005 against 1989).
  • Its formula is out of the ordinary — orange peel, rice are among the least common notes in our database.
  • Our calculated profile does not see it on “winter” ground.

Why choose Samsara

  • bergamot, jasmine, ylang-ylang: all materials absent from Love in White.
  • Warmth wins out, with vanilla and amber in support.
  • More versatile according to our calculated profile (7 contexts out of 8, against 5).
  • Launched in 1989, it has 37 years of life behind it.
  • No tracked point of sale to date.

The verdict

  • Most enveloping

    Samsara — signature carried by vanilla and amber

  • Most versatile

    Samsara — 7 situations out of 8 suit it, against 5 for the other

  • Most original

    Love in White — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (orange peel, rice)

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