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 Ideal Oud

  • It costs less: from €210.00, while the other starts at €518.00.
  • Eau de Parfum: the formula is more diluted than its rival's.
  • “office” is not its register, according to the profile we calculate.

Why choose Taif Aoud

  • Richer concentration (Extrait de Parfum against Eau de Parfum): higher theoretical longevity.
  • Facets Ideal Oud does not have: patchouli, geranium, aldehydes.
  • Notes that are uncommon with us (clove, aldehydes): the less conventional of the two.
  • The more expensive of the two (from €518.00).

The verdict

  • Best price

    Ideal Oud — from €210.00 against €518.00

  • Most concentrated

    Taif Aoud — an extrait de parfum formula against an eau de parfum

  • Most original

    Taif Aoud — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (clove, aldehydes)
