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 Trésor
- The cheaper of the two: from €36.54, against €98.02.
- Its pyramid opens on rose, lychee, iris, nowhere to be found opposite.
- More track record: launched in 1990, it has been worn for 36 years.
Why choose Velvet Orchid
- orchid, orange blossom, mandarin: all materials absent from Trésor.
- Markedly more enveloping, carried by vanilla and amber.
- More recent creation (2014, against 1990).
- Its formula is out of the ordinary — orchid, rum are among the least common notes in our database.
- Expect €98.02 at the very least, more than its rival.
- “office” is not its register, according to the profile we calculate.
