What are they for?
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 Black Opium Extreme
- orange blossom, vanilla, pepper: all materials absent from Jimmy Choo.
- Markedly more enveloping, carried by gourmand and warm spicy.
