Modelled profile

Marzipan-sweet almond and vanilla form a soft, powdery core touched with jasmine. Clean musk keeps it plush and skin-close. It smells cozy and dessert-like, comforting more than sharp.

Sweetnessgourmand0.95

Hypnotic Poison is openly sweet, in gourmand territory. That is among the highest 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.
