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 Pure Poison

  • Eau de Parfum against eau de toilette: more material, and a longer expected longevity.
  • Its pyramid opens on bergamot, jasmine, gardenia, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • 22 years of existence (2004): it has proved itself for longer.
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.

Why choose Olympéa Aqua

  • ginger, ambergris, salted vanilla: all materials absent from Pure Poison.
  • Markedly more enveloping, carried by amber and warm spicy.
  • It is 15 years younger (2019 against 2004).
  • More atypical composition in our catalogue (rare notes: salted vanilla, water jasmine).
  • No tracked point of sale to date.
  • Less concentrated (Eau de Toilette), it should last less long.

The verdict

  • Most concentrated

    Pure Poison — Eau de Parfum, so more material than an eau de toilette

  • Most enveloping

    Olympéa Aqua — signature carried by amber and warm spicy

  • Most original

    Olympéa Aqua — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (salted vanilla, water jasmine)

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