Notes
All international fragrances for men are made of various "notes" that combine to form the scent. These can be divided up into
The Top Notes are, as their name suggests the first scents to be perceived. These notes will determine whether or not the fragrance has an overall floral, fruity scent. The fragrances usually vanish as soon as they burst.
Heart Notes * Heart Notes are the notes that appear after top notes fade. These scents have a softer, more mellow quality.
Base notes - These are what appear as soon as the top note disappears. Base notes can be deep, dense and rich. As they age, the base notes become richer and more concentrated.
