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 Desire
- Its pyramid opens on lychee, cardamom, mandarin, nowhere to be found opposite.
- Released in 2000, when the other dates from 1969.
- We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
Why choose Calandre
- aldehydes, oakmoss, vetiver: all materials absent from Desire.
- More track record: launched in 1969, it has been worn for 57 years.
- Its formula is out of the ordinary — green notes, aldehydes are among the least common notes in our database.
The verdict
-
Most original
Calandre — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (green notes, aldehydes)
