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 Ricci Ricci

  • Its pyramid opens on tuberose, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • No tracked point of sale to date.
  • Eau de Parfum: the formula is more diluted than its rival's.

Why choose A Midsummer Dream

  • It is more concentrated — Extrait de Parfum where the other is eau de parfum — so theoretically more tenacious.
  • cyclamen, aldehydes, geranium: all materials absent from Ricci Ricci.
  • Warmth wins out, with warm spicy in support.
  • It covers more ground: 8 contexts out of 8 according to our calculated profile, against 6.

The verdict

  • Most concentrated

    A Midsummer Dream — an extrait de parfum formula against an eau de parfum

  • Most enveloping

    A Midsummer Dream — signature carried by warm spicy

  • Most versatile

    A Midsummer Dream — at ease in 8 contexts out of 8, against 6

  • Most original

    A Midsummer Dream — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (fir balsam, cyclamen)

Each trophy applies to a specific use, not in absolute terms.
