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

Galbanum gives a green, slightly bitter snap over freesia and mandarin, settling into warm sandalwood. It feels vivid and a touch retro, floral warmth cut with a fresh green edge.

The Cool Sweet

Cool on the surface. Quietly sweet beneath.

Not where you'd expect to find it. It crept in and stayed. Some softness arrives that way.

Sweetnessgourmand0.68

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.
