Apricot and peach brighten an iris-and-rose heart, with heliotrope and orris lending a powdery softness over vanilla and sandalwood. It reads soft and slightly sweet, a powdery oriental floral that stays gentle.

Splendor 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 68th percentile for texture across 5,322 scored fragrances.
Splendor keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere.
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.
