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.

Reviewed profile

Soft peach and iris meet a bright citrus top of bergamot and grapefruit, with ylang adding a creamy floral touch. Black pepper keeps it from turning too sweet, leaving something cool, fresh and gently powdery.

The Signature

Unmistakable. Always has been.

You arrived with a signature and you've never needed to explain it. Consistency is its own kind of confidence. Some things become part of the room before you do.

Texturesheer0.28

Sweetnessdry0.10

XXY keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere. That is 5th 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.
