Perfume Composition for Women

Fragrances can have notes from several family

The fragrance industry groups fragrances into categories called families, according to the ingredients and target. Avon Fragrances are categorized BY NOTES – Fresh & Sweet, Fresh & Vibrant, Fresh & Clean, Warm & Dreamy, Warm & Indulgent, as well as Warm & Exotic. Fragrance goes through three main stages, in which its intensity changes and different elements of its composition emerge. The stages of a fragrances are called top, middle and base notes.
  • TOP: The top note is the first impression of a fragrance. And because of this, top notes are very important in the selling of a fragrance. Top Notes get your attention right away, make an impression. They are strong, but evaporate quickly. Common top notes: citrus, fruity notes, and green notes.
  • MIDDLE: As top notes gradually fade away, a fragrance intensifies and becomes richer as the middle notes become apparent. Middles Notes appear 10-20 minutes after application and form the heart or body of a fragrance. They give a fragrance its overall character. Common middle notes: florals and spices.
  • BASE: The base notes give the fragrance its foundation and lastingness, or what fragrance developers call tenacity. Base Notes are noticeable 15 minutes after application and the final scent to emerge from a fragrance. They bring depth and solidness as a fragrance fades. Common base notes: woods, musks, amber and vanilla.
