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 By the Fireplace

  • orange, chestnut, star anise: all materials absent from Tobacco Vanille.
  • More recent creation (2015, against 2007).
  • No tracked point of sale to date.
  • Lighter concentration (Eau de Toilette): lower theoretical longevity.

Why choose Tobacco Vanille

  • It is more concentrated — Eau de Parfum where the other is eau de toilette — so theoretically more tenacious.
  • Its pyramid opens on tobacco, dried fruits, tonka bean, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • More track record: launched in 2007, it has been worn for 19 years.
  • No tracked point of sale to date.

The verdict

  • Most concentrated

    Tobacco Vanille — an eau de parfum formula against an eau de toilette

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