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

Dark patchouli anchored by labdanum, amber and a curl of incense, vanilla softening the base. It is earthy and resinous, warm without much sweetness, with a faintly smoky depth.

How Patchouli Intense smells, measured

On Zenyra's five taste axes, Patchouli Intense feels thick in the air, saturated and physically there, and keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere.

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

Riskmid-range0.43

Patchouli Intense sits mid-range on risk, neither a clear crowd-pleaser nor clearly divisive on the evidence available. That is 78th percentile for risk across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Texturedense0.82

Patchouli Intense feels thick in the air, saturated and physically there. That is among the highest in the catalogue for texture across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Sweetnessdry0.20

Patchouli Intense keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere. That is 14th 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.
