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 Santal 33
- It is more concentrated — Eau de Parfum where the other is eau de toilette — so theoretically more tenacious.
- cardamom, amber, sandalwood: all materials absent from Molecule 01.
- leather and amber give it a roundness the other lacks.
- We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
- Our calculated profile does not see it on “spring” ground.
Why choose Molecule 01
- Its pyramid opens on woody notes, nowhere to be found opposite.
- More versatile according to our calculated profile (8 contexts out of 8, against 6).
- Its formula is out of the ordinary — woody notes, cedar are among the least common notes in our database.
- Eau de Toilette: the formula is more diluted than its rival's.
The verdict

Most concentrated
Santal 33 — an eau de parfum formula against an eau de toilette

-
Most versatile
Molecule 01 — 8 situations out of 8 suit it, against 6 for the other
-
