The olfactory pyramid represents the structure of a perfume in three levels of notes, which are revealed gradually. Each stage plays a specific role in the sensory experience and allows the perfume to fully express itself in your home.
Top notes - The first impression
keyboard_arrow_downTop notes are perceived as soon as the candle is lit. Light and volatile, they evaporate quickly and provide the first olfactory sensation.
They are often fresh, citrusy, or green (citrus fruits, aromatic notes, fresh fruits).
👉 Their role is to immediately capture the senses and announce the fragrance’s universe.
Heart notes - The identity of the perfume
keyboard_arrow_downHeart notes appear after a few minutes of burning. They make up the heart of the fragrance and define its main character.
More balanced and enveloping, they are generally floral, fruity, gourmand, or spicy.
👉 They create the atmosphere and give the candle its full personality.
Base notes – Longevity and depth
keyboard_arrow_downThe base notes diffuse slowly and remain present over time, even after the candle is extinguished.
Intense and warm, they are often woody, amber, musky, or vanilla-scented.
👉 They ensure the lasting power of the fragrance and leave a long-lasting olfactory signature.
