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

Galbanum and oakmoss give a cool, bitter-green depth, with narcissus adding a hay-like floral and vetiver a rooty base. It feels earthy and shaded, projecting a damp forest character.

The Crisp Presence

Crisp and impossible to miss.

The choice was always going to be precise. Clean lines and nothing left to chance. You knew exactly what you were doing.

How Dryad smells, measured

On Zenyra's five taste axes, Dryad carries across a room and announces itself, and reads cool and open, nearer to citrus and air than to skin.

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

Warmthcool, open0.33

Dryad reads cool and open, nearer to citrus and air than to skin. That is 24th percentile for warmth across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Projectionroom-filling0.76

Dryad carries across a room and announces itself. That is among the highest in the catalogue for projection across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Riskmid-range0.55

Dryad sits mid-range on risk, neither a clear crowd-pleaser nor clearly divisive on the evidence available. That is 93rd percentile for risk across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Texturebalanced0.42

Dryad carries some body without feeling heavy. That is 22nd percentile for texture across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Sweetnesslightly sweet0.38

Dryad carries sweetness without letting it define the scent.

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.
