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 Dior Homme

  • It brings what the other lacks — bergamot, cedar, vetiver.
  • Our calculated profile has it at ease in 7 situations out of 8, where the other holds 5.
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.

Why choose Gentleman

  • Facets Dior Homme does not have: pear, lavender, patchouli.
  • Notes that are uncommon with us (pear, lavender): the less conventional of the two.
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
  • “spring” is not its register, according to the profile we calculate.

The verdict

  • Most versatile

    Dior Homme — at ease in 7 contexts out of 8, against 5

  • Most original

    Gentleman — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (pear, lavender)
