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 1740

  • It costs less: from €55.00, while the other starts at €205.00.
  • It brings what the other lacks — bergamot, cedar, birch.
  • Markedly more enveloping, carried by amber and gourmand.
  • Its formula is out of the ordinary — birch, immortelle are among the least common notes in our database.
  • Less at ease in the “spring” context according to our calculated profile.

Why choose Noir Patchouli

  • Facets 1740 does not have: white musk.
  • Expect €205.00 at the very least, more than its rival.
