Fragrance houses

Montale

64 fragrances, mapped across five axes.

What the Montale range is made of

78% of the 64 Montale fragrances Zenyra has mapped contain rose. A house can be described by what it returns to, and Montale returns to rose more than to anything else — across 64 releases that is a position rather than a coincidence.

On Zenyra's five axes the house reads warmer than the catalogue as a whole: warmth averages 0.69 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

The Montale range spreads 0.138 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 2012.
