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 Beautiful

  • Its pyramid opens on rose, marigold, tuberose, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • Launched in 1985, it has 41 years of life behind it.
  • Notes that are uncommon with us (marigold, lily): the less conventional of the two.
  • The more expensive of the two (from €62.95).

Why choose Gucci Bamboo

  • Budget in its favour — €41.90 against €62.95.
  • bergamot, vanilla: all materials absent from Beautiful.
  • amber and gourmand give it a roundness the other lacks.
  • More recent creation (2015, against 1985).
  • Less at ease in the “summer” context according to our calculated profile.

The verdict

  • Best price

    Gucci Bamboo — from €41.90 against €62.95

  • Most enveloping

    Gucci Bamboo — signature carried by amber and gourmand

  • Most original

    Beautiful — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (marigold, lily)
