Find Your Scent With The fragrace Pyramid

Perfume can play an important role in our wardrobe. Whether you prefer to apply your signature scent for a date night or for a work day in the office, fragrances help give us a certain aura and presence.

Part of what creates this presence for each person is the use of fragrance notes. Similar to how musical notes make up a song, fragrance notes are the individual components that, when combined, form a unified, pleasing perfume. 

We created a guide that explains what fragrance notes are and everything you need to know about them to better understand your favorite perfumes. Plus, we’ll point you in the right direction for finding a perfume based on your scent notes of choice.
