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

Smoky oud and soft vanilla lean into each other, rose warming the heart between them. Deeply warm and full-bodied, it balances resinous wood against a velvet sweetness, plush and enveloping.

How Aoud Velvet smells, measured

On Zenyra's five taste axes, Aoud Velvet reads warm and close to the skin, in amber and resin territory, and carries across a room and announces itself.

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

Warmthwarm, close0.88

Aoud Velvet reads warm and close to the skin, in amber and resin territory. That is among the highest in the catalogue for warmth across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Projectionroom-filling0.74

Aoud Velvet carries across a room and announces itself. That is 93rd percentile for projection across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Riskmid-range0.40

Aoud Velvet sits mid-range on risk, neither a clear crowd-pleaser nor clearly divisive on the evidence available. That is 65th percentile for risk across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Texturedense0.72

Aoud Velvet feels thick in the air, saturated and physically there. That is 80th percentile for texture across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Sweetnesslightly sweet0.58

Aoud Velvet carries sweetness without letting it define the scent. That is 78th 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.
