- Most perfumes are made up of top notes, heart notes and base notes:
Top notes are the first to smell when you apply perfume. You can smell this in perfumery, for example, which is why they are very important. Top notes are meant to show the character, after ten minutes you can hardly smell them anymore.
You can smell heart notes when your top notes are almost gone. Floral scents are often the heart notes.
You can smell the base notes at the 'end'. You will start to smell them after about 1 to 2 hours after spraying. Good base notes are for example Sadelwood and Resin.
