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 Rose Ikebana

  • Its pyramid opens on rhubarb, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • Markedly fresher, carried by citrus.
  • Released in 2004, when the other dates from 1969.
  • More atypical composition in our catalogue (rare notes: rhubarb, green notes).
  • No offer listed for the moment.
  • Less at ease in the “evenings & dates” context according to our calculated profile.

Why choose Calandre

  • aldehydes, oakmoss, jasmine: all materials absent from Rose Ikebana.
  • More track record: launched in 1969, it has been worn for 57 years.

The verdict

  • Freshest

    Rose Ikebana — signature carried by citrus

  • Most original

    Rose Ikebana — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (rhubarb, green notes)

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