Bitter myrrh lifted by bright mandarin and rose, saffron adding a metallic glint. Cool, medicinal and luminous over amber.

The Anchor
The Dry Warmth
Warm enough to be felt. Dry enough to mean it.
The warmth here is firm. It arrives unapologetic and stays put. Substance comes first, every time.
How La Myrrhe smells, measured
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.
Modelled profile. This profile is derived from the evidence currently available and may be refined over time.
La Myrrhe reads warm and close to the skin, in amber and resin territory. That is 90th percentile for warmth across 5,283 scored fragrances.
La Myrrhe carries across a room and announces itself. That is among the highest in the catalogue for projection across 5,283 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 5,283 scored fragrances.
La Myrrhe carries some body without feeling heavy. That is 57th percentile for texture across 5,283 scored fragrances.
La Myrrhe keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere. That is 30th 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.
