Fragrance 101: Scent Profiles and Creating an Aesthetic

Did you know that human olfactory senses have the ability to both create and reinforce memories by triggering emotion - and this is the primary of the five to do just that? Studies suggest that if a memory has a specific scent attached to it, you are one hundred times more likely to recall it than if it has a flavor or sound - so choosing your fragrance can be a wise decision in a host of situations. Whether you want to make an impact at the office, make your date fall in love with you, or anything in between; having the right scent profile will make all of the difference.

What is a scent profile?

As there are so many amazing perfumes and colognes out there, like Ambery Vanilla from Dossier, which is inspired by Black Opium perfume, it can be difficult to not only choose one you like, but to narrow down your options to even get close. This is where understanding fragrance profiles can play to your advantage. In its simplest form, a fragrance profile or scent family refers to the blend of scents that are put together to create a signature smell. The good news is that knowing the typical ingredients that go into a specific profile will help you when both selecting and buying your new perfume or cologne.

The top fragrance profiles/scent families are:

  • Floral
  • Oriental
  • Wood
  • Fresh

Fragrance profiles function just like colors in the sense that there is a wheel that can be utilized to define complementary scents and fragrance sub-families (those that appear side by side), so that you will be able to determine what ingredients within your perfume will blend well.

Top scents to elicit positive feelings

Citrus

Citrus notes like lemon, orange and grapefruit are uplifting and fresh - and can help you to boost your mood and up productivity when you need to get things done.

Jasmine

Jasmine is a powerful scent that is used in many fragrances as it lasts well and really packs a punch. It is often a more calming scent that is good for nervous wearers, while also increasing positivity and giving great energy.

Patchouli

Patchouli is one of the most important scents to be found in fragrance profiles and often works best as a mid or base note to support and ground fragrance profiles. It is confidence-boosting and relieves stress.

Now that you have a better grasp of fragrance profiles, why not stop by top replica perfumer Dossier and buy a new fragrance today?
