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 The Scent

  • ginger, lavender, white musk: all materials absent from Polo Green.
  • Markedly more enveloping, carried by warm spicy and leather.
  • More recent creation (2015, against 1978).
  • “spring” is not its register, according to the profile we calculate.
