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 Gary's Den

  • Richer concentration (Extrait de Parfum against Eau de Toilette): higher theoretical longevity.
  • It brings what the other lacks — patchouli, labdanum, bergamot.
  • More versatile according to our calculated profile (7 contexts out of 8, against 5).
  • More recent creation (2023, against 2000).
  • No tracked point of sale to date.

Why choose Body Kouros

  • Facets Gary's Den does not have: incense, guaiac wood, star anise.
  • Markedly more enveloping, carried by amber and gourmand.
  • 26 years of existence (2000): it has proved itself for longer.
  • More atypical composition in our catalogue (rare notes: resin, star anise).
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
  • Lighter concentration (Eau de Toilette): lower theoretical longevity.
