How Cuir de Russie smells, measured

On Zenyra's five taste axes, Cuir de Russie stays close to the skin, worn for the wearer first, and reads warm and close to the skin, in amber and resin territory.

Warmthwarm, close0.81

Cuir de Russie reads warm and close to the skin, in amber and resin territory. That is 87th percentile for warmth across 5,322 scored fragrances.

Projectionskin-close0.16

Cuir de Russie stays close to the skin, worn for the wearer first. That is among the lowest in the catalogue for projection across 5,322 scored fragrances.

Riskfamiliar0.22

Cuir de Russie is broadly easy to wear, familiar in its structure. That is 21st percentile for risk across 5,322 scored fragrances.

Texturemid-range0.35

Cuir de Russie 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 18th percentile for texture across 5,322 scored fragrances.

Sweetnessdry0.28

Cuir de Russie keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere. That is 29th percentile 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.
