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 Oud Ispahan
- Richer concentration (Eau de Parfum against Eau de Toilette): higher theoretical longevity.
- Facets Encre Noire does not have: rose, sandalwood, oud.
- Markedly more enveloping, carried by amber.
- We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
- Less at ease in the “summer” context according to our calculated profile.
Why choose Encre Noire
- It brings what the other lacks — vetiver, white musk, pine.
- green pull it towards the bright and the lively.
- Its formula is out of the ordinary — pine, guaiac wood are among the least common notes in our database.
- No offer listed for the moment.
- Lighter concentration (Eau de Toilette): lower theoretical longevity.
