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.

Modelled profile

Plum and incense set a rich, resinous tone over a heavy floral heart of jasmine, mimosa and ylang. Vanilla, benzoin and sandalwood deepen it further, warm and full with strong projection.

The Dry Warmth

Warm enough to be felt. Dry enough to mean it.

The warmth here is firm. It arrives unapologetic and stays put. Substance comes first, every time.

How Lou Lou smells, measured

On Zenyra's five taste axes, Lou Lou reads warm and close to the skin, in amber and resin territory, and carries across a room and announces itself.

Modelled profile. This profile is derived from the evidence currently available and may be refined over time.

Warmthwarm, close0.72

Lou Lou reads warm and close to the skin, in amber and resin territory. That is 81st percentile for warmth across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Projectionroom-filling0.72

Lou Lou carries across a room and announces itself. That is 91st percentile for projection across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Riskmid-range0.49

Lou Lou sits mid-range on risk, neither a clear crowd-pleaser nor clearly divisive on the evidence available. That is 89th percentile for risk across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Texturebalanced0.62

Lou Lou carries some body without feeling heavy. That is 76th percentile for texture across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Sweetnesslightly sweet0.46

Lou Lou carries sweetness without letting it define the scent. That is 63rd 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.
