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
- aldehydes, vetiver, geranium: all materials absent from Bouquet Ideale.
- citrus pull it towards the bright and the lively.
- 57 years of existence (1969): it has proved itself for longer.
- More atypical composition in our catalogue (rare notes: green notes, aldehydes).
- Lighter concentration (Eau de Toilette): lower theoretical longevity.
Why choose Bouquet Ideale
- Eau de Parfum against eau de toilette: more material, and a longer expected longevity.
- Its pyramid opens on blackcurrant, nowhere to be found opposite.
- It is 42 years younger (2011 against 1969).
- We have no price recorded at our retailers yet.
The verdict
-
Most concentrated
Bouquet Ideale — Eau de Parfum, so more material than an eau de toilette
-
Freshest
Calandre — signature carried by citrus
-
Most original
Calandre — its notes are rarer in our catalogue (green notes, aldehydes)
