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 Black Afgano

  • It is more concentrated — Extrait de Parfum where the other is eau de parfum — so theoretically more tenacious.
  • It brings what the other lacks — oud, coffee, tea.
  • No tracked point of sale to date.
  • “everyday” is not its register, according to the profile we calculate.

Why choose Fille en Aiguilles

  • Facets Black Afgano does not have: pine needles, fruits, resin.
  • Its formula is out of the ordinary — pine needles, fruits are among the least common notes in our database.
  • No offer listed for the moment.
  • Less concentrated (Eau de Parfum), it should last less long.

The verdict

  • Most concentrated

    Black Afgano — Extrait de Parfum, so more material than an eau de parfum

  • Most original

    Fille en Aiguilles — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (pine needles, fruits)
