Obsession for Men sits mid-range on texture, which for a fragrance with thin wear data reflects an absence of reports rather than a measured middle. That is 35th percentile for texture across 5,322 scored fragrances.
Obsession for Men carries sweetness without letting it define the scent.
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.
