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 Red Tobacco

  • Facets Chergui does not have: spices, saffron, vanilla.
  • It is 12 years younger (2017 against 2005).
  • Expect €170.00 at the very least, more than its rival.

Why choose Chergui

  • The cheaper of the two: from €99.85, against €170.00.
  • It brings what the other lacks — rose, hay, iris.
  • tobacco and amber give it a roundness the other lacks.
  • Launched in 2005, it has 21 years of life behind it.

The verdict

  • Best price

    Chergui — €70.15 difference in its favour

  • Most enveloping

    Chergui — signature carried by tobacco and amber

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