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 California Dream

  • Its pyramid opens on mandarin, cedar, blackcurrant, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • No offer listed for the moment.
  • Lighter concentration (Eau de Parfum): lower theoretical longevity.

Why choose Silver Musk

  • Extrait de Parfum against eau de parfum: more material, and a longer expected longevity.
  • woody notes, citrus, amber: all materials absent from California Dream.
  • More atypical composition in our catalogue (rare notes: citrus, woody notes).

The verdict

  • Most concentrated

    Silver Musk — Extrait de Parfum, so more material than an eau de parfum

  • Most original

    Silver Musk — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (citrus, woody notes)

Each trophy applies to a specific use, not in absolute terms.
