All fragrance notes are the same
Top notes
“These are the ingredients that you can smell as soon as you spray a scent. These are usually citrus notes and are made up of small, light molecules that appear immediately but evaporate quickly. Important for that first impression!
Heart notes
“Heart notes or middle notes appear after the top notes, these act as the main body of the fragrance and usually last a little longer.”
Base notes
“These notes bring the solidity and power to the scent, adding that all important depth. These ingredients take a while to develop so you won’t smell them straight away but they will add longevity to your fragrance. These notes are usually ouds, woods or musks.”
Some perfumes are better to wear at night compared to during the day

As someone with an affinity for all things beauty, discovering fantastic new products is my not-so-secret obsession. Over the years I've tried and tested a mountains worth of creams, serums and cleansers, finding some of my favourite 'holy-grail' products along the way. However, I'm always on the lookout for more ways to nourish my hair, perfect my dewy base, or enhance my skincare routine. Working as a beauty blogger for over 3 years, I've been lucky enough to collaborate personally with lots of amazing beauty brands including Christian Dior, The Body Shop and Dermalogica. I've used the Dermalogica special cleansing gel religiously since I first got it and their products are some of my ultimate skincare faves. When it comes to cosmetics, NARS Sheer Glow foundation is definitely my go-to - I live for a light, glowy base!
