These describe how the fragrance is generally reported to behave. Skin chemistry, weather and how much you apply all change it, so your own experience may differ.

Reviewed profile

Cardamom and neroli over cashmeran's soft woody musk, with a supple leather beneath. It sits very close to the skin, warm and muffled, more a quiet second skin than a projecting scent.

How Eidesis smells, measured

On Zenyra's five taste axes, Eidesis stays close to the skin, worn for the wearer first, and keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere.

Reviewed profile. This profile has received a focused catalogue review.

Warmthtemperate0.55

Eidesis sits temperate, built on woods and soft musk rather than amber. That is 63rd percentile for warmth across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Projectionskin-close0.21

Eidesis stays close to the skin, worn for the wearer first. That is among the lowest in the catalogue for projection across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Riskmid-range0.37

Eidesis sits mid-range on risk, neither a clear crowd-pleaser nor clearly divisive on the evidence available.

Texturebalanced0.52

Eidesis carries some body without feeling heavy. That is 57th percentile for texture across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Sweetnessdry0.28

Eidesis keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere. That is 30th percentile for sweetness across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Projection, risk and texture describe how a fragrance behaves in a room and on skin. Where wear reports are thin, those scores rest near the middle by design, so a mid-range reading here is a statement about the evidence as much as about the scent. Warmth and sweetness are derived from composition and do not carry that caveat.
