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 L'Ombre dans l'Eau

  • Its pyramid opens on rose, white musk, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.

Why choose Babylonia

  • iris, davana, violet: all materials absent from L'Ombre dans l'Eau.
  • Warmth wins out, with warm spicy in support.
  • More atypical composition in our catalogue (rare notes: bluebell, davana).

The verdict

  • Most enveloping

    Babylonia — signature carried by warm spicy

  • Most original

    Babylonia — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (bluebell, davana)

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