Perfumery – Did you know?

Eau de Toilette or Eau de Parfum? While Eau de Toilette contains 5-9% of perfume oil, Eau de Parfum usually contains 8-14%. Eau de Parfums therefore last longer and smell more intense. Natural or synthetic fragrances? Perfumes with natural ingredients often smell different in batches based on the source of the ingredients, while synthetic ingredients usually have consistency in their smell and lasts longer. 

Notes and different smell after application? Perfumes are often designed with top, middle and base notes, and designed to smell different based on the time after application.

Top notes

The top note is perceived as the first and is the smell immediately after spraying. Often fresh, minty, aquatic and airy fragrances are used. The top note of the fragrance lasts for about 15 minutes.

Middle notes

The middle note forms the middle level of the pyramid and follows after the top note disappear. The aromas of the heart note gradually unfold and determine the character of the respective fragrance. Floral, fruity and herbaceous aromas are often used.

Base notes:

The base notes form the foundation of the fragrance, rounds off the smell experience and gives the fragrance a certain degree of depth. The base notes are mainly woody, resinous and gourmandous, i.e. sensual, deep nuances. The smell of the base note may last for several hours depending on the application.

Tips/advice:
When you apply perfumes apply them to pulse points such as the folds in the crook of your elbow and back of knees, wrist, neck and cleavage. Spraying a little into the air is also good if you walk straight into the perfume. This helps to diffuse it over your body. Do not simply apply to the neck as the scent will rise
