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 Ysatis
- It brings what the other lacks — aldehydes, tuberose, amber.
- It is 59 years younger (1984 against 1925).
- Its formula is out of the ordinary — civet, aldehydes are among the least common notes in our database.
- No tracked point of sale to date.
- Less concentrated (Eau de Toilette), it should last less long.
Why choose Shalimar
- Richer concentration (Eau de Parfum against Eau de Toilette): higher theoretical longevity.
- Facets Ysatis does not have: bergamot, incense, lemon.
- Warmth wins out, with amber and vanilla in support.
- More track record: launched in 1925, it has been worn for 101 years.
- We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
The verdict
-
Most concentrated
Shalimar — Eau de Parfum against Eau de Toilette
-
Most enveloping
Shalimar — signature carried by amber and vanilla
-
Most original
Ysatis — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (civet, aldehydes)
