Fragrance houses

Arabian Oud

31 fragrances, mapped across five axes.

What the Arabian Oud range is made of

71% of the 31 Arabian Oud fragrances Zenyra has mapped contain musk. A house can be described by what it returns to, and Arabian Oud returns to musk more than to anything else — across 31 releases that is a position rather than a coincidence.

On Zenyra's five axes the house reads more projective than the catalogue as a whole: projection averages 0.65 against 0.51 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

Arabian Oud covers ground. The average spread across its range is 0.144 — wide enough that liking one Arabian Oud fragrance tells you comparatively little about the rest. Houses like this reward exploring the catalogue rather than trusting the name.

The median release year across the mapped range is 2017.
