Taste Profile
The Anchor
The Slow Depth
A rich and warm centre of gravity. Change is part of the journey.
Everything around you may shift but this stays constant. The depth here takes time. It opens slowly and rewards patience. Some things get richer the longer you stay.

On Zenyra's five taste axes, La Myrrhe reads warm and close to the skin, in amber and resin territory, and carries across a room and announces itself.
La Myrrhe reads warm and close to the skin, in amber and resin territory. That is 87th percentile for warmth across 5,322 scored fragrances.
La Myrrhe carries across a room and announces itself. That is among the highest in the catalogue for projection across 5,322 scored fragrances.
La Myrrhe sits mid-range on risk, neither a clear crowd-pleaser nor clearly divisive on the evidence available. That is among the highest in the catalogue for risk across 5,322 scored fragrances.
La Myrrhe 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 90th percentile for texture across 5,322 scored fragrances.
La Myrrhe keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere. That is 29th 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.
