What its composition says
- Only 5 materials declared, against 7.6 on average in the catalogue: the formula is tight.
- 3 materials on top for 1 in the base: the pyramid plays the opening more than the trail.
- Orange: barely 4.7% of the catalogue contains it, which makes it the rarest material in its palette.
- Bergamot: conversely, one of the most widely used materials in the catalogue — 43% of the analysed perfumes contain it.
Frequencies measured on the Olfact catalogue only.
