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 Sauvage Elixir

  • It is more concentrated — Extrait de Parfum where the other is eau de parfum — so theoretically more tenacious.
  • It brings what the other lacks — patchouli, lavender, nutmeg.
  • Markedly fresher, carried by aromatic and citrus.
  • More versatile according to our calculated profile (8 contexts out of 8, against 6).
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.

Why choose Icon Elite

  • Facets Sauvage Elixir does not have: leather, oud, geranium.
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
  • Lighter concentration (Eau de Parfum): lower theoretical longevity.
