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

Dark rose winds through smoky oud and dry incense, deep and resinous throughout. Nearly dry, it stays brooding and warm, a shadowed floral carried on an intense, woody smoke.

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

Warmthwarm, close0.85

Aoud Purple Rose reads warm and close to the skin, in amber and resin territory. That is 96th percentile for warmth across 5,320 scored fragrances.

Projectionmid-range0.46

Aoud Purple Rose 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 39th percentile for projection across 5,320 scored fragrances.

Riskmid-range0.53

Aoud Purple Rose sits mid-range on risk, neither a clear crowd-pleaser nor clearly divisive on the evidence available. That is 93rd percentile for risk across 5,320 scored fragrances.

Texturedense0.78

Aoud Purple Rose feels thick in the air, saturated and physically there. That is 94th percentile for texture across 5,320 scored fragrances.

Sweetnessdry0.10

Aoud Purple Rose 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.
