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 Vétiver Tonka

  • It brings what the other lacks — hazelnut.
  • Warmth wins out, with gourmand in support.
  • 22 years of existence (2004): it has proved itself for longer.
  • Its formula is out of the ordinary — hazelnut, caramel are among the least common notes in our database.
  • No offer listed for the moment.
  • “summer” is not its register, according to the profile we calculate.

Why choose Scandal Pour Homme

  • Facets Vétiver Tonka does not have: orange, clary sage, patchouli.
  • aromatic and citrus pull it towards the bright and the lively.
  • Our calculated profile has it at ease in 8 situations out of 8, where the other holds 6.
  • It is 17 years younger (2021 against 2004).
