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 Hypnotic Poison
- Its pyramid opens on almond, cumin, patchouli, nowhere to be found opposite.
- gourmand and amber give it a roundness the other lacks.
- More track record: launched in 1998, it has been worn for 28 years.
- More atypical composition in our catalogue (rare notes: cumin, almond).
- We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
- Eau de Toilette: the formula is more diluted than its rival's.
Why choose Marfa
- It is more concentrated — Eau de Parfum where the other is eau de toilette — so theoretically more tenacious.
- neroli, orange blossom, sandalwood: all materials absent from Hypnotic Poison.
- Released in 2015, when the other dates from 1998.
The verdict
-
Most concentrated
Marfa — Eau de Parfum against Eau de Toilette
-
Most enveloping
Hypnotic Poison — signature carried by gourmand and amber
-
Most original
Hypnotic Poison — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (cumin, almond)
