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

Sticky labdanum and vanilla form a warm, resinous heart, with benzoin adding depth. Castoreum and musk lend a leathery, animal warmth underneath. Dense and honeyed, it projects strongly and stays close for hours.

Riskmid-range0.44

Labdanum 18 sits mid-range on risk, neither a clear crowd-pleaser nor clearly divisive on the evidence available. That is 84th percentile for risk across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Texturedense0.82

Labdanum 18 feels thick in the air, saturated and physically there. That is among the highest in the catalogue for texture across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Sweetnessgourmand0.84

Labdanum 18 is openly sweet, in gourmand territory. That is 94th 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.
