THE DETAILS OF SCENT

The craft

A fragrance is a composition: materials brought together to create a character that develops over time.

Material & character

A note describes an impression, such as rose, citrus or sandalwood. It may be created by a combination of materials; a note name does not necessarily mean the fragrance contains an extract of that ingredient.

Balance & development

Freshness, sweetness, warmth and texture influence how a composition feels. The opening gives way to a heart and, eventually, a longer-lasting base.

Experiencing a fragrance

Try a fragrance on skin and give it time to develop. Weather, application and individual skin can change how it wears.
