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

Citrus opens over a warm bed of amber, vanilla and spice that projects with easy confidence. It feels rich and rounded, sweet-leaning but never heavy. A room-filling warmth with a comforting glow.

How Black XS EDT smells, measured

On Zenyra's five taste axes, Black XS EDT is broadly easy to wear, familiar in its structure, 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.

Warmthtemperate0.65

Black XS EDT sits temperate, built on woods and soft musk rather than amber. That is 75th percentile for warmth across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Projectionroom-filling0.72

Black XS EDT carries across a room and announces itself. That is 91st percentile for projection across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Riskfamiliar0.17

Black XS EDT is broadly easy to wear, familiar in its structure. That is 7th percentile for risk across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Texturebalanced0.45

Black XS EDT carries some body without feeling heavy. That is 42nd percentile for texture across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Sweetnesslightly sweet0.55

Black XS EDT 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.
