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 Grand Soir
- amber, labdanum, orange blossom: all materials absent from White Powder.
- We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
- Lighter concentration (Eau de Parfum): lower theoretical longevity.
Why choose White Powder
- It is more concentrated — Extrait de Parfum where the other is eau de parfum — so theoretically more tenacious.
- Its pyramid opens on milk, cocoa, tuberose, nowhere to be found opposite.
- Its formula is out of the ordinary — mahonial, powdery notes are among the least common notes in our database.
The verdict
-
Most concentrated
White Powder — Extrait de Parfum, so more material than an eau de parfum
-
Most original
White Powder — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (mahonial, powdery notes)
