Lancôme

What the Lancôme range is made of

57% of the 21 Lancôme fragrances Zenyra has mapped contain bergamot. A house can be described by what it returns to, and Lancôme returns to bergamot more than to anything else — across 21 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 0.55 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

The Lancôme range spreads 0.127 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 2018, which places this house firmly in the current era of perfumery rather than the archive.
