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 Palao

  • It brings what the other lacks — guaiac wood.
  • Released in 2015, when the other dates from 2006.
  • Notes that are uncommon with us (guaiac wood, oud): the less conventional of the two.
  • No offer listed for the moment.
  • Our calculated profile does not see it on “summer” ground.

Why choose Black Aoud

  • 20 years of existence (2006): it has proved itself for longer.
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.

The verdict

  • Most original

    Oud Palao — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (guaiac wood, oud)

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