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

Citrus brightens the top before almond and tonka bring a nutty sweetness, all grounded by dry vetiver. It sits in an easy middle place, fresh and clean-woody with a gourmand hint.

Modelled profile. This profile is derived from the evidence currently available and may be refined over time.

Projectionmid-range0.50

Riskfamiliar0.17

L’Homme Idéal is broadly easy to wear, familiar in its structure. That is 7th percentile for risk across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Texturebalanced0.45

L’Homme Idéal carries some body without feeling heavy. That is 42nd percentile for texture across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Sweetnesslightly sweet0.38

L’Homme Idéal carries sweetness without letting it define the scent.

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.
