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 Encre Noire
- It brings what the other lacks — vetiver, pine, guaiac wood.
- amber give it a roundness the other lacks.
- Our calculated profile has it at ease in 8 situations out of 8, where the other holds 5.
- Launched in 2006, it has 20 years of life behind it.
- We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
- Eau de Toilette: the formula is more diluted than its rival's.
Why choose Baie 19
- Richer concentration (Eau de Parfum against Eau de Toilette): higher theoretical longevity.
- Facets Encre Noire does not have: blackcurrant, patchouli, green notes.
- More recent creation (2021, against 2006).
- Its formula is out of the ordinary — narcissus, green notes are among the least common notes in our database.
- No offer listed for the moment.
- “winter” is not its register, according to the profile we calculate.
