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.

Reviewed profile

The same tart rhubarb and daffodil open the scent, but here they turn sweeter and fuller in the heart. Cashmeran warms the base, making this version cozier and more rounded than the original.

The Soft Presence

Warm enough to feel right. Easy enough to forget.

Some choices just work. This one keeps working. The best kind of invisible.

Reviewed profile. This profile has received a focused catalogue review.

Warmthtemperate0.46

Projectionmid-range0.45

Perfect Intense sits mid-range on projection. That is 34th percentile for projection across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Riskfamiliar0.23

Perfect Intense is broadly easy to wear, familiar in its structure. That is 25th percentile for risk across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Texturesheer0.28

Perfect Intense sits light in the air, close to the skin and easy to miss. That is 10th percentile for texture across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Sweetnessgourmand0.74

Perfect Intense is openly sweet, in gourmand territory. That is 90th 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.
