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 Jicky

  • Its pyramid opens on rose, lemon, rosemary, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • Launched in 1889, it has 137 years of life behind it.
  • More atypical composition in our catalogue (rare notes: rosemary, lavender).
  • No tracked point of sale to date.

Why choose Mon Guerlain

  • jasmine: all materials absent from Jicky.
  • Markedly more enveloping, carried by vanilla and gourmand.
  • Released in 2017, when the other dates from 1889.
  • No offer listed for the moment.

The verdict

  • Most enveloping

    Mon Guerlain — signature carried by vanilla and gourmand

  • Most original

    Jicky — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (rosemary, lavender)

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