Crisp apple and ginger meet sage and juniper over a bracing herbal-citrus lift. It feels cool and modern, the fruit kept sheer, geranium adding a faint floral edge to an otherwise clean, sporty shape.

How Y EDT smells, measured

On Zenyra's five taste axes, Y EDT is broadly easy to wear, familiar in its structure, and keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere.

Warmthtemperate0.55

Y EDT sits temperate, built on woods and soft musk rather than amber. That is 60th percentile for warmth across 5,322 scored fragrances.

Projectionmid-range0.45

Y EDT sits mid-range on projection, which for a fragrance with thin wear data reflects an absence of reports rather than a measured middle. That is 33rd percentile for projection across 5,322 scored fragrances.

Riskfamiliar0.17

Y EDT is broadly easy to wear, familiar in its structure. That is 7th percentile for risk across 5,322 scored fragrances.

Texturemid-range0.35

Y EDT 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 18th percentile for texture across 5,322 scored fragrances.

Sweetnessdry0.20

Y EDT keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere. That is 13th 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.
