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 Silver Mountain Water

  • It is more concentrated — Eau de Parfum where the other is eau de toilette — so theoretically more tenacious.
  • Facets Matcha Meditation does not have: mandarin, sandalwood, blackcurrant.
  • Freshness dominates, with citrus and green in the lead.
  • More track record: launched in 1995, it has been worn for 31 years.
  • Our calculated profile does not see it on “winter” ground.

Why choose Matcha Meditation

  • It brings what the other lacks — cedar, jasmine.
  • More versatile according to our calculated profile (7 contexts out of 8, against 5).
  • More recent creation (2022, against 1995).
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
  • Eau de Toilette: the formula is more diluted than its rival's.

The verdict

  • Most concentrated

    Silver Mountain Water — an eau de parfum formula against an eau de toilette

  • Freshest

    Silver Mountain Water — signature carried by citrus and green

  • Most versatile

    Matcha Meditation — it holds 7 of the 8 contexts we calculate, the other 5

  • Most original

    Silver Mountain Water — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (tea, blackcurrant)

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