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 Coffee Break

  • It brings what the other lacks — milk, bergamot, cardamom.
  • Markedly more enveloping, carried by coffee and gourmand.
  • Notes that are uncommon with us (milk, coffee): the less conventional of the two.
  • Less concentrated (Eau de Toilette), it should last less long.

Why choose Intense Café

  • Richer concentration (Eau de Parfum against Eau de Toilette): higher theoretical longevity.
  • Facets Coffee Break does not have: rose, amber.
  • No offer listed for the moment.

The verdict

  • Most concentrated

    Intense Café — an eau de parfum formula against an eau de toilette

  • Most enveloping

    Coffee Break — signature carried by coffee and gourmand

  • Most original

    Coffee Break — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (milk, coffee)

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