Citrus and juniper open crisp over a dry oakmoss and leather base. Bitter and bracing, it feels austere and masculine in the classic French mode.

How Coriolan smells, measured

On Zenyra's five taste axes, Coriolan keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere, and is broadly easy to wear, familiar in its structure.

Warmthcool, open0.32

Coriolan reads cool and open, nearer to citrus and air than to skin. That is 21st percentile for warmth across 5,322 scored fragrances.

Projectionmid-range0.41

Coriolan sits mid-range on projection, which for a fragrance with thin wear data reflects an absence of reports rather than a measured middle. That is 14th percentile for projection across 5,322 scored fragrances.

Riskfamiliar0.27

Coriolan is broadly easy to wear, familiar in its structure. That is 29th percentile for risk across 5,322 scored fragrances.

Textureseamless0.31

Coriolan arrives seamless, as a single impression rather than parts. That is 11th percentile for texture across 5,322 scored fragrances.

Sweetnessdry0.05

Coriolan keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere. That is among the lowest in the catalogue for sweetness across 5,322 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.
