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 Le Mâle
- Its pyramid opens on cinnamon, lavender, cumin, nowhere to be found opposite.
- Markedly more enveloping, carried by vanilla and amber.
- Launched in 1995, it has 31 years of life behind it.
- The investment is heavier: €44.95 minimum.
- “office” is not its register, according to the profile we calculate.
Why choose Eros
- Budget in its favour — €36.64 against €44.95.
- vetiver, apple, ambroxan: all materials absent from Le Mâle.
- More recent creation (2012, against 1995).
- Notes that are uncommon with us (mint, ambroxan): the less conventional of the two.
