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
Bright bergamot, lemon and orange open zesty and warm, then settle onto cedar and a soft tonka sweetness. It bridges fresh and cozy, sunlit at the top and gently comforting underneath.
Taste Profile
The Purist
The Cool Sweet
Cool on the surface. Quietly sweet beneath.
Not where you'd expect to find it. It crept in and stayed. Some softness arrives that way.
How Aqua Vitae Forte smells, measured
On Zenyra's five taste axes, Aqua Vitae Forte reads cool and open, nearer to citrus and air than to skin, 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.
Aqua Vitae Forte reads cool and open, nearer to citrus and air than to skin. That is among the lowest in the catalogue for warmth across 5,320 scored fragrances.
Aqua Vitae Forte sits mid-range on projection, which for a fragrance with thin wear data reflects an absence of reports rather than a measured middle. That is 61st percentile for projection across 5,320 scored fragrances.
Aqua Vitae Forte sits mid-range on risk, neither a clear crowd-pleaser nor clearly divisive on the evidence available.
Aqua Vitae Forte carries body without weight, present without filling a room. That is 42nd percentile for texture across 5,320 scored fragrances.
Aqua Vitae Forte carries sweetness without letting it define the scent. That is 84th 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.
