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
- vetiver, bergamot, patchouli: all materials absent from Babycat.
- Freshness dominates, with citrus and fresh spicy in the lead.
- It covers more ground: 8 contexts out of 8 according to our calculated profile, against 6.
- Eau de Parfum: the formula is more diluted than its rival's.
Why choose Babycat
- Extrait de Parfum against eau de parfum: more material, and a longer expected longevity.
- Its pyramid opens on incense, vanilla, sichuan pepper, nowhere to be found opposite.
- vanilla and leather give it a roundness the other lacks.
- We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
- Less at ease in the “spring” context according to our calculated profile.
