Scent Profiles & Fragrance Notes
A scent profile is a way to categorize a fragrance's smell. Scent profiles are often described in terms of broad categories like floral, wood, amber, or fresh.
Fragrance Notes are the individual ingredients that make up a fragrance's scent profile.
Fragrance notes are categorized into three types:
- Top notes - That fresh fleeting first impression
- Middle notes - The heart of a scent adding warmth and depth
- Base notes - The enchanting finish adding a rich and lasting aura
The combination of these notes creates a fragrance's unique profile.
