Understanding Fragrance Notes: Top, Heart & Base

When you first spray a fragrance, you're meeting only its opening chapter. A perfume unfolds in three movements.

Top notes

The first impression — bright, volatile, and gone within minutes. Think bergamot, pink pepper, citrus.

Heart notes

The soul of the fragrance, emerging as the top fades. Florals like rose and jasmine often live here.

Base notes

The signature that remains hours later — oud, sandalwood, amber. This is what people remember.
