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

Sea notes and bergamot over pine, juniper and a soft floral heart, grounded in cedar, oakmoss and vetiver. It reads fresh and complex, a woody-marine layered with herbs and quiet depth.

The individuality is in the detail.

It won't be on anyone's list. That's exactly why it's on yours. The detail always reveals the truth.

How Homme smells, measured

On Zenyra's five taste axes, Homme keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere, and reads cool and open, nearer to citrus and air than to skin.

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

Warmthcool, open0.22

Homme reads cool and open, nearer to citrus and air than to skin. That is 7th percentile for warmth across 5,320 scored fragrances.

Projectionmid-range0.47

Homme sits mid-range on projection, which for a fragrance with thin wear data reflects an absence of reports rather than a measured middle.

Riskmid-range0.37

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

Texturebalanced0.45

Homme carries body without weight, present without filling a room. That is 42nd percentile for texture across 5,320 scored fragrances.

Sweetnessdry0.10

Homme keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere. That is 5th 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.
