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 Cool Water

  • It brings what the other lacks — mint, geranium, neroli.
  • More track record: launched in 1988, it has been worn for 38 years.
  • The more expensive of the two (from €34.90).
  • Less concentrated (Eau de Toilette), it should last less long.

Why choose Legend Blue

  • The entry price is lower: €29.31 against €34.90.
  • It is more concentrated — Eau de Parfum where the other is eau de toilette — so theoretically more tenacious.
  • Facets Cool Water does not have: marine notes, cardamom, juniper.
  • amber give it a roundness the other lacks.

The verdict

  • Best price

    Legend Blue — €29.31 at the low end, while the other starts at €34.90

  • Most concentrated

    Legend Blue — Eau de Parfum, so more material than an eau de toilette

  • Most enveloping

    Legend Blue — signature carried by amber

  • Most versatile

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

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