Frankincense and myrrh anchor a warm resinous heart, with orris lending powder and orange blossom a soft bloom. Styrax deepens the sweetness, giving an incense that feels smooth and close.

How Carlisle smells, measured

On Zenyra's five taste axes, Carlisle reads warm and close to the skin, in amber and resin territory, and is openly sweet, in gourmand territory.

Warmthwarm, close0.85

Carlisle reads warm and close to the skin, in amber and resin territory. That is 95th percentile for warmth across 5,322 scored fragrances.

Projectionmid-range0.48

Carlisle sits mid-range on projection, which for a fragrance with thin wear data reflects an absence of reports rather than a measured middle.

Riskmid-range0.37

Carlisle sits mid-range on risk, neither a clear crowd-pleaser nor clearly divisive on the evidence available.

Texturemid-range0.42

Carlisle sits mid-range on texture, which for a fragrance with thin wear data reflects an absence of reports rather than a measured middle. That is 31st percentile for texture across 5,322 scored fragrances.

Sweetnessgourmand0.84

Carlisle is openly sweet, in gourmand territory. That is 92nd percentile for sweetness across 5,322 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.
