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 Oud 01

  • The cheaper of the two: from €68.00, against €69.90.
  • Its pyramid opens on rose, raspberry, violet leaf, nowhere to be found opposite.
  • Its formula is out of the ordinary — violet leaf, cumin are among the least common notes in our database.

Why choose Opium

  • cinnamon, vanilla, mandarin: all materials absent from Oud 01.
  • Warmth wins out, with amber and warm spicy in support.
  • Expect €69.90 at the very least, more than its rival.
