Fragrance houses

Anna Sui

11 fragrances, mapped across five axes.

What the Anna Sui range is made of

64% of the 11 Anna Sui fragrances Zenyra has mapped contain musk. A house can be described by what it returns to, and Anna Sui returns to musk more than to anything else — across 11 releases that is a position rather than a coincidence.

On Zenyra's five axes the house reads sweeter than the catalogue as a whole: sweetness averages 0.65 against 0.40 across all mapped fragrances. That is a wide margin, and it is the clearest thing the data says about this house.

One idea, or many

Anna Sui releases variations on a theme. Measured as the average spread of its fragrances across all five axes, the range scores 0.076 — narrow. Someone who likes one Anna Sui fragrance is unusually likely to like the next, and someone who dislikes one probably will not find the exception further down the range.

The median release year across the mapped range is 2020, which places this house firmly in the current era of perfumery rather than the archive.
