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 Boss Number One

  • The cheaper of the two: from €34.90, against €210.00.
  • Its pyramid opens on sandalwood, cinnamon, lavender, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • Freshness dominates, with aromatic in the lead.
  • More versatile according to our calculated profile (8 contexts out of 8, against 6).
  • Eau de Toilette: the formula is more diluted than its rival's.

Why choose Mythique Vetyver

  • It is more concentrated — Eau de Parfum where the other is eau de toilette — so theoretically more tenacious.
  • papyrus: all materials absent from Boss Number One.
  • Its formula is out of the ordinary — papyrus, geranium are among the least common notes in our database.
  • The more expensive of the two (from €210.00).
  • “winter” is not its register, according to the profile we calculate.
