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 XS
- The entry price is lower: €59.95 against €93.15.
- lemon, sage, precious woods: all materials absent from Five O'Clock au Gingembre.
- Notes that are uncommon with us (kola, precious woods): the less conventional of the two.
- Eau de Toilette: the formula is more diluted than its rival's.
Why choose Five O'Clock au Gingembre
- Richer concentration (Eau de Parfum against Eau de Toilette): higher theoretical longevity.
- Its pyramid opens on tea, ginger, tonka bean, nowhere to be found opposite.
- The investment is heavier: €93.15 minimum.
- Our calculated profile does not see it on “office” ground.
