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 Zino

  • The entry price is lower: €36.36 against €100.76.
  • rose, lemon, sandalwood: all materials absent from Valentina.
  • Launched in 1986, it has 40 years of life behind it.
  • Less concentrated (Eau de Toilette), it should last less long.

Why choose Valentina

  • Eau de Parfum against eau de toilette: more material, and a longer expected longevity.
  • Its pyramid opens on white truffle, tuberose, vanilla, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • It is 25 years younger (2011 against 1986).
  • More atypical composition in our catalogue (rare notes: white truffle, strawberry).
  • The investment is heavier: €100.76 minimum.
