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

Sharp pine, oakmoss and patchouli lock around dark leather in a fierce, resinous chypre. Uncompromising and dry, it wears like weathered forest and hide. Bold and provocative.

The Hidden Find

Off the beaten path and fine staying there.

The obvious choice was never really an option. Hidden gems don't announce themselves and neither does the person who finds them. Gatekeeping because you did the work.

How Yatagan (Vintage) smells, measured

On Zenyra's five taste axes, Yatagan (Vintage) keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere, and divides opinion by design.

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

Texturedense0.72

Yatagan (Vintage) feels thick in the air, saturated and physically there. That is 80th percentile for texture across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Sweetnessdry0.05

Yatagan (Vintage) keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere. That is among the lowest in the catalogue 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.
