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

Almond blossom and cyclamen open soft and powdery over jasmine and peony, with vanilla, amber and musk warming the base. Creamy, sweet and gently glowing. Comforting and romantic.

The Romantic

The Familiar Place

Found something that feels like home and never left.

Connection to yourself, your home, your people is what you are all about. The fragrance found you as much as you found it. May those connections remain firm.

How Cinema smells, measured

On Zenyra's five taste axes, Cinema is broadly easy to wear, familiar in its structure, and reads warm and close to the skin, in amber and resin territory.

Reviewed profile. This profile has received a focused catalogue review.

Warmthwarm, close0.68

Cinema reads warm and close to the skin, in amber and resin territory. That is 77th percentile for warmth across 5,320 scored fragrances.

Projectionmid-range0.48

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

Riskfamiliar0.17

Cinema is broadly easy to wear, familiar in its structure. That is 7th percentile for risk across 5,320 scored fragrances.

Texturebalanced0.52

Cinema carries body without weight, present without filling a room. That is 57th percentile for texture across 5,320 scored fragrances.

Sweetnessgourmand0.68

Cinema is openly sweet, in gourmand territory. That is 86th percentile for sweetness across 5,320 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.
