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 dry wood dominate, kept spare and warm with only a whisper of rose and vanilla underneath. Bone-dry and resinous, it leans austere, the sweetness barely surfacing beneath the wood.

The Full Feeling

Nothing half-felt.

It wraps around you and stays there. The full experience was always the intention.

How White Aoud smells, measured

On Zenyra's five taste axes, White Aoud reads warm and close to the skin, in amber and resin territory, and feels thick in the air, saturated and physically there.

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

Warmthwarm, close0.82

White Aoud reads warm and close to the skin, in amber and resin territory. That is 93rd percentile for warmth across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Projectionmid-range0.64

White Aoud sits mid-range on projection. That is 82nd percentile for projection across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Riskmid-range0.40

White Aoud 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.

Texturedense0.78

White Aoud feels thick in the air, saturated and physically there. That is 94th percentile for texture across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Sweetnesslightly sweet0.55

White Aoud carries sweetness without letting it define the scent. That is 73rd 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.
