Modelled profile
Earthy vetiver warmed by ginger and lifted with mandarin, finished on clean musk. Dry and refined, it stays understated and close to the skin.

The Signature
Unmistakable. Always has been.
You arrived with a signature and you've never needed to explain it. Consistency is its own kind of confidence. Some things become part of the room before you do.
How Original Vetiver smells, measured
On Zenyra's five taste axes, Original Vetiver keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere, and sits light in the air, close to the skin and easy to miss.
Modelled profile. This profile is derived from the evidence currently available and may be refined over time.
Original Vetiver reads cool and open, nearer to citrus and air than to skin. That is 24th percentile for warmth across 5,320 scored fragrances.
Original Vetiver sits mid-range on projection, which for a fragrance with thin wear data reflects an absence of reports rather than a measured middle.
Original Vetiver is broadly easy to wear, familiar in its structure. That is 33rd percentile for risk across 5,320 scored fragrances.
Original Vetiver sits light in the air, close to the skin and easy to miss. That is 10th percentile for texture across 5,320 scored fragrances.
Original Vetiver keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere. That is 5th percentile for sweetness across 5,320 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.
