Reviewed profile

Lavender, bergamot and rosemary set a clean aromatic frame over mossy oakmoss and soft tonka. It reads as the fougere blueprint: crisp herbs above, warm hay-like sweetness below. Timeless and quietly polished.

Reviewed profile. This profile has received a focused catalogue review.

Warmthtemperate0.47

Fougere Royale sits temperate, built on woods and soft musk rather than amber.

Projectionmid-range0.48

Fougere Royale sits mid-range on projection.

Riskmid-range0.37

Fougere Royale sits mid-range on risk, neither a clear crowd-pleaser nor clearly divisive on the evidence available.

Texturebalanced0.52

Fougere Royale carries some body without feeling heavy. That is 57th percentile for texture across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Sweetnessdry0.20

Fougere Royale keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere. That is 14th percentile for sweetness across 5,283 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.
