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 Explorer Ultra Blue

  • The cheaper of the two: from €50.00, against €54.90.
  • Eau de Parfum against eau de toilette: more material, and a longer expected longevity.
  • Its pyramid opens on clary sage, amber, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • Less at ease in the “winter” context according to our calculated profile.

Why choose Luna Rossa Carbon

  • ambroxan, pepper, tonka bean: all materials absent from Explorer Ultra Blue.
  • Warmth wins out, with amber in support.
  • It covers more ground: 7 contexts out of 8 according to our calculated profile, against 5.
  • The investment is heavier: €54.90 minimum.
  • Lighter concentration (Eau de Toilette): lower theoretical longevity.
