5 fragrances, mapped across five axes.

What the Parfums de Nicolaï range is made of

Across the 5 Parfums de Nicolaï fragrances Zenyra has mapped, the materials that recur most are patchouli (40%), amber (40%), vanilla (40%). 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 0.32 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
