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 The One
- Budget in its favour — €47.99 against €59.95.
- Facets Pure XS does not have: cedar, tobacco, coriander.
- 18 years of existence (2008): it has proved itself for longer.
- Less at ease in the “everyday” context according to our calculated profile.
Why choose Pure XS
- It brings what the other lacks — vanilla, cinnamon, myrrh.
- Warmth wins out, with warm spicy and gourmand in support.
- Released in 2017, when the other dates from 2008.
- Notes that are uncommon with us (thyme, myrrh): the less conventional of the two.
- The investment is heavier: €59.95 minimum.
