What its composition says
- Only 5 materials declared, against 7.6 on average in the catalogue: the formula is tight.
- 1 material on top, 2 in the heart, 2 in the base: the three stages are of comparable size.
- Juniper: barely 3.2% of the catalogue contains it, which makes it the rarest material in its palette.
- White musk: conversely, one of the most widely used materials in the catalogue — 50% of the analysed perfumes contain it.
Frequencies measured on the Olfact catalogue only.
