- Our Notes
Our Master Perfumer has spent years creating our exquisite range of blends sourced from the world’s finest ingredients.
From base, musky notes to fruity top notes, our fine fragrance blends represent the entire spectrum of human emotion.
Of these sumptuous blends, our trained Perfume Stylists will offer you the chance to sample each one, explain their properties, and offer you guidance when you come to choose those you wish to include in your own fragrance.
You will be taught to identify and appreciate the type of note each blend is from top notes which although won't last long, make a very memorable first impression (typical high-street fragrances are composed mostly of top notes), middle notes which are arguably the most important part of a fragrance and set the tone, to base notes which form the body of a fragrance and can last for a very long time. While base notes are not vital to a fragrance, for those who are seeking longevity they are exceptionally popular.
Top Notes
In fragrance design, top notes are the first scents that you smell when you apply a fragrance. They are the most volatile and evaporate quickly, usually within 5 to 15 minutes after application. These notes are often light, fresh, and bright, setting the initial impression of the perfume.
