Modelled profile
Apricot-tinged osmanthus over green tea and clean musk, delicate and slightly leathery in the flower's way. It feels cool and contemplative, more suede than sugar. A quiet floral with a soft, tea-like calm.

Osmanthe Yunnan keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere. That is 28th percentile for sweetness across 5,320 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.
