Lastly, fresh fragrances encompass a wide range of clean, airy notes, including marine, green, and herbaceous elements. These scents are often described as invigorating and revitalising, capturing the essence of nature in its purest form. Fresh fragrances are perfect for those seeking a light, breezy scent that feels effortless and energising, making them ideal for daily wear, especially in casual or active settings.

Each fragrance family offers a different mood and character, allowing individuals to curate a scent wardrobe that reflects their personality, mood, and the occasion. Whether you’re drawn to the romance of florals, the zest of citrus, the sensuality of Orientals, the grounding nature of woody scents, or the purity of fresh notes, the world of fragrances offers a tailored journey for every scent lover.

It’s all about the strength

The strength of perfumes and fragrances is determined by the concentration of aromatic oils within the formulation, influencing both their intensity and longevity.

Understanding these variations helps in choosing the right perfume strength for different occasions and personal preferences.
