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 Citron 28

  • Eau de Parfum against eau de toilette: more material, and a longer expected longevity.
  • Facets Calandre does not have: petitgrain.
  • More recent creation (2015, against 1969).
  • Notes that are uncommon with us (petitgrain, aldehydes): the less conventional of the two.
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.

Why choose Calandre

  • It brings what the other lacks — rose, bergamot, vetiver.
  • More track record: launched in 1969, it has been worn for 57 years.
  • Less concentrated (Eau de Toilette), it should last less long.

The verdict

  • Most concentrated

    Citron 28 — Eau de Parfum, so more material than an eau de toilette

  • Most original

    Citron 28 — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (petitgrain, aldehydes)
