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 1969

  • The entry price is lower: €55.00 against €94.05.
  • patchouli, white flowers, cardamom: all materials absent from Santal Majuscule.
  • Markedly more enveloping, carried by gourmand and warm spicy.
  • Notes that are uncommon with us (white flowers, clove): the less conventional of the two.
  • Our calculated profile does not see it on “office” ground.

Why choose Santal Majuscule

  • Its pyramid opens on sandalwood, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • The more expensive of the two (from €94.05).
