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 Vetiver Extraordinaire

  • Eau de Parfum against eau de toilette: more material, and a longer expected longevity.
  • Facets Vetiver does not have: oakmoss.
  • warm spicy 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.
  • No tracked point of sale to date.

Why choose Vetiver

  • It brings what the other lacks — lemon, tobacco, coriander.
  • green and aromatic pull it towards the bright and the lively.
  • Launched in 1961, it has 65 years of life behind it.
  • Notes that are uncommon with us (coriander, tobacco): the less conventional of the two.
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
  • Less concentrated (Eau de Toilette), it should last less long.

The verdict

  • Most concentrated

    Vetiver Extraordinaire — Eau de Parfum, so more material than an eau de toilette

  • Freshest

    Vetiver — signature carried by green and aromatic

  • Most enveloping

    Vetiver Extraordinaire — signature carried by warm spicy

  • Most versatile

    Vetiver Extraordinaire — it holds 8 of the 8 contexts we calculate, the other 5

  • Most original

    Vetiver — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (coriander, tobacco)
