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 Sensuous

  • Richer concentration (Eau de Parfum against Eau de Toilette): higher theoretical longevity.
  • Facets Un Jardin sur la Lagune does not have: jasmine, ylang-ylang, vetiver.
  • Launched in 2008, it has 18 years of life behind it.
  • No tracked point of sale to date.

Why choose Un Jardin sur la Lagune

  • It brings what the other lacks — pittosporum, woody notes.
  • It is 11 years younger (2019 against 2008).
  • Notes that are uncommon with us (pittosporum, lily): the less conventional of the two.
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
  • Eau de Toilette: the formula is more diluted than its rival's.

The verdict

  • Most concentrated

    Sensuous — an eau de parfum formula against an eau de toilette

  • Most original

    Un Jardin sur la Lagune — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (pittosporum, lily)

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