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 Alpha Desire
- It is more concentrated — Extrait de Parfum where the other is eau de parfum — so theoretically more tenacious.
- saffron, eucalyptus, patchouli: all materials absent from Layton.
- We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
Why choose Layton
- Its pyramid opens on apple, tonka bean, violet, nowhere to be found opposite.
- gourmand and warm spicy give it a roundness the other lacks.
- Eau de Parfum: the formula is more diluted than its rival's.
The verdict
-
Most concentrated
Alpha Desire — an extrait de parfum formula against an eau de parfum
-
Most enveloping
Layton — signature carried by gourmand and warm spicy
