Accord

Vodka

The vodka accord is sharp and neutral, a cold boozy lift.

In 3 of 1747 fragrances here, most often worn in winter

What it is

An impression of neutral spirit, built from cold sharp notes rather than from alcohol, which every fragrance already contains.

What it smells like

Sharp and clean with a cold lift at the top, more a sensation than a smell. It is used to make an opening feel chilled and it disappears within minutes.

How strongly it is worn

The average strength this accord is listed at, where 100 means it dominates the fragrance.

58 / 100

What builds it

How much more often than the catalogue average. 1.0x would be chance, so these are the things that genuinely travel with it rather than the things that are simply common.

Accords it sits beside

Same measure, with its own family filtered out. Saying woody turns up with oud is a restatement, not a finding.

When it is worn

Against the average fragrance here. The line marks that average, so a bar past it means this is worn in that season or setting more than most.
