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

Lemon opens sharp and bright, then cardamom and tonka pull it into a warm, gently sweet embrace. Musk smooths the base, making for a fresh-yet-cozy scent that hovers near the skin.

Found something that feels like home and never left.

Connection to home and your people is what you are all about. The fragrance found you as much as you found it. May those connections remain firm.

How Aqua Vitae smells, measured

On Zenyra's five taste axes, Aqua Vitae reads warm and close to the skin, in amber and resin territory, and carries sweetness without letting it define the scent.

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

Warmthwarm, close0.76

Aqua Vitae reads warm and close to the skin, in amber and resin territory. That is 85th percentile for warmth across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Projectionmid-range0.41

Aqua Vitae sits mid-range on projection. That is 15th percentile for projection across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Riskmid-range0.37

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

Texturebalanced0.42

Aqua Vitae carries some body without feeling heavy. That is 22nd percentile for texture across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Sweetnesslightly sweet0.64

Aqua Vitae carries sweetness without letting it define the scent. That is 84th 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.
