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?

  • Released in 2018, when the other dates from 2009.
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
  • Eau de Parfum: the formula is more diluted than its rival's.

Why choose Black Afgano

  • coffee, tea, tobacco: all materials absent from Ombre Nomade.
  • More track record: launched in 2009, it has been worn for 17 years.
  • We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
