Modelled profile
Spicy leather over amber and dry woods, with immortelle and birch adding a smoky-honeyed edge. It reads rich and enveloping, dark and warmly resinous. Full and grounded, with a lingering ambery trail.

The Anchor
The Slow Depth
A rich and warm centre of gravity. Change is part of the journey.
Everything around you may shift but this stays constant. The depth here takes time. It opens slowly and rewards patience. Some things get richer the longer you stay.
How 1740 smells, measured
On Zenyra's five taste axes, 1740 keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere, and feels thick in the air, saturated and physically there.

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.
