Fragrance houses

Avon

22 fragrances, mapped across five axes.

What the Avon range is made of

Across the 22 Avon fragrances Zenyra has mapped, the materials that recur most are musk (32%), bergamot (23%), sandalwood (23%). No single note dominates, which is itself a choice — this is a house that works across a palette rather than around a signature material.

On Zenyra's five axes the house reads closer to the skin than the catalogue as a whole: projection averages 0.41 against 0.51 across all mapped fragrances. The margin is modest — this is a house closer to the centre of taste than to any edge of it.

One idea, or many

The Avon range spreads 0.107 across the five axes — neither a house built on one idea nor one that covers the whole map. There is a recognisable centre with real variation around it.

The median release year across the mapped range is 1994, which means most of what defines this house was made before the reformulations of the 2000s.
