Scores are category averages, not hours or controlled measurements. Different vote samples are not a head-to-head wear test. “Unique” notes here means absent from the other record, not proof of a formula difference.

Compare the labels

Ingredients, side by side.

Read the declared lists for the editions shown. Shared entries do not mean identical formulas, proportions or scent.

Declared on both

  • Parfum (fragrance)
  • Limonene

Listed only on Aventus

  • Alcool (alcohol)
  • Citral
  • Citronellol

Listed only on De Los Santos

  • Alcohol
  • Butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane
  • Tocopheryl acetate

Matching ignores capitalization and a small set of water and fragrance naming variants. “Only” refers to these published lists, not proof that an ingredient is absent from the other formula.

These are published ingredient declarations, separate from scent notes. “Parfum” or “fragrance” can represent a mixture without listing every component. Formulations can change by market and batch; check the packaging on your bottle. A matching or missing entry does not establish suitability for an allergy.

Follow your curiosity.
