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 Vanilla Tonka Extrême

  • The cheaper of the two: from €59.90, against €290.00.
  • It is more concentrated — Extrait de Parfum where the other is eau de parfum — so theoretically more tenacious.
  • Its pyramid opens on tonka bean, coconut, palo santo, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • Markedly more enveloping, carried by vanilla and gourmand.

Why choose More Than Words

  • bergamot, orange blossom, cardamom: all materials absent from Vanilla Tonka Extrême.
  • Expect €290.00 at the very least, more than its rival.
  • Less concentrated (Eau de Parfum), it should last less long.

The verdict
