By Kilian Angels' Share + Tom Ford Bitter Peach
80out of 100
Excellent match
Spray Tom Ford Bitter Peach first, then layer By Kilian Angels' Share on top. Start with one spray of each.
Every perfume here comes as a small decant, so you can test the layer before you buy a bottle.
Gourmand and Woody are a classic pairing.
Shared notes: Vanilla, Sandalwood, Tonka Bean.
They have a similar weight, so neither anchors the other.
The calculator reads the notes listed on each Scento perfume's page and sorts every note into one of twelve scent families, such as citrus, floral, woody or amber. Only perfumes you can buy today as a decant are included.
The score out of 100 has four parts. Family harmony counts for 45 points: some families are classic partners (citrus with woody, floral with musk) and some pull apart (aquatic with gourmand). Shared notes add up to 20 points, because a note both perfumes carry works as a bridge. Top and base balance adds up to 20 points, because a lighter, top-led perfume over a deeper, base-led one usually layers best. The last 15 points are lost when opposing families make up a large share of the layer.
Notes are weighted by where they sit: base notes count most because they stay longest, heart notes next, and top notes least because they fade first.
For three or more perfumes, every pair is scored. The group score leans on the average pair, is pulled down by the weakest pair and drops a little for each perfume beyond three. The note that costs the most points is named.
These are our own simple rules, built on common pairings. They are not a lab measurement or a perfumer's verdict. Skin, climate and taste change how a layer smells, so treat the score as a starting point and test on your skin.
