Heady tuberose over a tart blackcurrant, grounded in warm amber and musk. It carries far and full, a lush white floral with a resinous, glowing base.

Modelled profile. This profile is derived from the evidence currently available and may be refined over time.
Fragile sits temperate, built on woods and soft musk rather than amber. That is 41st percentile for warmth across 5,283 scored fragrances.
Fragile carries across a room and announces itself. That is 93rd percentile for projection across 5,283 scored fragrances.
Fragile is broadly easy to wear, familiar in its structure. That is 29th percentile for risk across 5,283 scored fragrances.
Fragile carries some body without feeling heavy. That is 42nd percentile for texture across 5,283 scored fragrances.
Fragile 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.
