Understanding Fragrance Notes: A Complete Guide to Top, Middle, and Base Notes for Lasting Scents

Fragrance notes are the distinct layers of scent that make up a complete fragrance. These layers—top, middle, and base notes—combine to create a unique aromatic profile for each fragrance, often visualized as a pyramid. The top notes are the first scents you detect, typically light and fresh like citrus or soft florals. These are the most volatile and tend to fade quickly.

As the top notes dissipate, the middle notes (or heart notes) take center stage. These are the most prominent scents, often floral, fruity, or lightly woody, and provide balance between the top and base notes.

Finally, the base notes anchor the fragrance, offering depth and longevity. These include scents like vanilla, spices, musk, wood, or amber, and they linger in a room long after a candle is extinguished.

A perfect blend of these notes ensures a lasting and appealing fragrance. Understanding fragrance notes can improve your ability to evaluate and market scents, as well as craft more appealing descriptions for your products.
