How to Read a Perfume
One pyramid, three layers
Every serious perfume is built on the same logic: what shows up first isn't necessarily what lasts longest. The pyramid below is the key we use in every article on the site.
- Citrus like bergamot and lemon
- Fresh green plants
- White flowers, jasmine, light spices
- Sandalwood and oud
- Musk and amber for staying power
