Just like musical notes in a song, fragrance notes are the individual components that come together to form a unified, pleasing perfume. The right note composition is a powerful force to be reckoned with. When paired right, it enhances your presence and brings out your inner beauty. Here’s a quick primer on perfume notes.
Top notes. The top notes are the first ones you will notice as you apply the fragrance. These notes are crucial to setting a fragrance's tone and shaping its narrative.
Middle notes. Middle notes retain some of the top notes while bringing in new scents to add depth to the composition. Any perfume is considered incomplete if it doesn't contain these middle notes (or "heart").
Bottom notes. Eventually, the middle notes fade, leaving only the bottom notes (or base notes). These notes are the foundation of any perfume and are usually heavy, rich scents that linger well past the first hours since you applied the fragrance.
The most popular women's perfume brands know how to encapsulate a woman's sensual side — whether it's with a flirty scent, a fierce fragrance, a timeless classic, or a playful concoction.
Here at Dossier, we love and are inspired by the likes of Chanel, Armani, Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent, Versace, Le Labo, and many more. These timeless women's perfume brands have become the inspiration for everything we create.
A perfume's concentration is the key to its longevity. Perfumes or colognes with a high concentration of fragrance oils have a more potent scent and last longer.
For instance, an eau de parfum formulated with 15% concentration will always last longer than an eau de toilette, which contains about 10% concentration on average. A body spray, on the other hand, will have a shorter lasting effect when compared to an eau de toilette. Here at Dossier we don’t hide anything and you will find all concentration of our perfumes in their product pages.
