Top Notes: Oriental, bergamot, lemon, orange, and pink pepper.
Middle Notes: Osmanthus, iris, violet, and jasmine.
Base Notes: Patchouli, amber, musk, and vanilla.
Top Notes:
The top note is the initial scent detected when the perfume is first applied. Composed of the most volatile essences, its effect lasts only a few minutes. It’s important not to judge a perfume solely based on this initial impression, as the top notes consist of sharp and rapidly evaporating scents.
Middle Notes:
When the top notes fade, the middle notes emerge and last for several hours. Known as the "heart notes," they play a crucial role in defining the fragrance. Before forming an opinion about the perfume, it’s advisable to wait for the middle notes to fully reveal themselves.
Base Notes:
The base notes determine the perfume’s longevity and can last all day. They become noticeable about 30 minutes after the perfume is applied, once the middle notes start to dissipate. This layer represents the personality and essence of the fragrance.
