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 Original Vetiver

  • Its pyramid opens on vetiver, orris root, ambergris, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • It is 9 years younger (2004 against 1995).
  • More atypical composition in our catalogue (rare notes: orris root, ambergris).

Why choose Silver Mountain Water

  • tea, blackcurrant: all materials absent from Original Vetiver.
  • 31 years of existence (1995): it has proved itself for longer.

The verdict

  • Most original

    Original Vetiver — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (orris root, ambergris)

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