One of the best-known families is the woody group. These fragrances contain one or more types of wood, such as oudh, vetiver, cedarwood or sandalwood, and have a warm, sensual character. Woody scents suit a spirited, adventurous personality particularly well.
Fragrances built on musky, exotic notes such as resin, musk and amber, combined with vanilla or honey, belong to the amber family. They are often described as oriental. With their blend of powdery-sweet and tobacco-like notes, they carry a little more weight and create a warm, sensual and luxurious feel. Amber fragrances are ideally suited to evening wear or a special occasion.
Floral fragrances place several flowers at their heart, as blooms are usually the greatest source of inspiration for perfumers. They can be composed into soft, romantic creations using white blossoms, lily of the valley or freesia, or into captivating evening scents with jasmine, tuberose or a powdery, soapy hint of violet, iris or heliotrope.
It is not only flowers that can warm the heart; the scent of powder can do so too. Powdery fragrances recall soap and face powder, and often rest on a base of musk, vanilla, iris or heliotrope. Alongside a soft, comforting feel, they lend a clean, elegant and feminine touch.
Fragrances with bergamot, lime, yuzu, orange and grapefruit fall within the citrus family. They smell brightly fresh and leave you feeling revived. Citrus notes clear the mind, bring a sunny, optimistic mood and carry you back to summer holidays. Citrus fragrances offer a sense of simple elegance and purity, and suit anyone with a sunny disposition.
