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
- bergamot, gardenia, orange: all materials absent from Paradoxe.
- More track record: launched in 2004, it has been worn for 22 years.
- We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
Why choose Paradoxe
- Its pyramid opens on neroli, benzoin, nowhere to be found opposite.
- Released in 2022, when the other dates from 2004.
- Less at ease in the “summer” context according to our calculated profile.
The verdict
These two perfumes are too close to separate any trophies: same family, same register. The choice comes down to the details above — and to your skin.
