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 Calandre

  • Its pyramid opens on aldehydes, bergamot, geranium, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • More track record: launched in 1969, it has been worn for 57 years.
  • Less concentrated (Eau de Toilette), it should last less long.

Why choose Safari

  • Eau de Parfum against eau de toilette: more material, and a longer expected longevity.
  • narcissus, marigold, mandarin: all materials absent from Calandre.
  • It is 21 years younger (1990 against 1969).
  • Its formula is out of the ordinary — marigold, narcissus are among the least common notes in our database.
  • No tracked point of sale to date.

The verdict

  • Most concentrated

    Safari — Eau de Parfum against Eau de Toilette

  • Most original

    Safari — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (marigold, narcissus)

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