The character encodes to F0 9F 95 AF as UTF-8 bytes and D83D DD6F as UTF-16 code units. Its decimal codepoint is 128367.

This is a fully-qualified emoji and should render with colour on iOS, Android, Windows and macOS. Appearance may vary between platforms, but the underlying codepoint is identical everywhere.
