Citrus perfumes for women are persistent. citrus flavors

As a child, I loved tea with bergamot. But the fact that bergamot is a citrus, and not a herb like mint or thyme, I, to my shame, found out when I became interested in perfumery. Bergamot, whose golden yellow thick skin is rich in essential oils, is one of the frequent components of citrus fragrances. He is often accompanied by lemon, tangerine and red grapefruit. Citrus fruits are perhaps one of the most ancient perfume ingredients, which is not surprising given the many amazing properties of their essential oils, from antiseptic to psychotherapeutic.

IN pure form citrus notes are rarely used. As a rule, they are "assigned" to play the top notes, relegating the floral, woody or spicy notes to the role of the heart and base. In such fragrances, citruses are the first thing that our nose hears (and often this determines not quite the right impression of the fragrance as a whole). It is better to get acquainted with citrus aromas (most often we are talking about flower-citrus, fruit-citrus or spicy-citrus) without haste. Let the fragrance live on your skin before you give your verdict. The first impression of most fragrances is wrong. For citrus aromas, this rule is doubly true.

Speaking of misperceptions. Today, fragrances with citrus notes are often undeservedly bypassed, considered too "simple" or even associated with means. household chemicals. Believe me, expensive citrus aromas have nothing in common with the smells of chemical lemon. I propose to fight stereotypes together with the right examples.

Orange mood: Eau de Mandarine Ambree, Hermes

What do you associate tangerines with? I bet happy holidays. New Year, gifts under the tree, and a scattering of fresh tangerines on the table. Oh, how fresh crusts smell! The very mischievous fragrance Eau de Mandarine Ambree from Hermes evokes approximately the same associations. Aroma-hooligan - in the first chord it sounds like you ate tangerines and, as in childhood, accidentally smeared with its juice. You don't have to wait for some kind of disclosure, however. The fragrance is relatively simple: Hermes perfumers, as always, are not ready to reveal all the secrets of the olfactory pyramid of fragrance, declaring only three main components - mandarin, passion fruit and amber. But in this simplicity lies its non-triviality. If you want a holiday - get it and sign it.

By the way, Eau de Mandarine Ambree is one of five such “mono” fragrances released in cologne concentration. And this is part of the concept of the Les Parfums Nouvelles family: to give the opportunity to concentrate on a certain moment. "Moment" is the key word. Don't expect longevity from Eau de Mandarine Ambree. The aroma of tangerines will not haunt you all day. That's why he's beautiful. Bright, juicy, hooligan, but at the same time unobtrusive. In the end, if you want to extend the charm of the holiday, you can make a new "zilch".

Mandarin, passion fruit, amber.

For whom: for her (and a little for him)

Peonies and citruses: Eau Florale, Victorinox Swiss Army

The rose has thorns, and the Swiss brand Victorinox, famous for its folding (and not only) knives, has a perfume line, which this year has replenished, if we are not mistaken, the 16th fragrance in a row. Eau Florale is, of course, a celebration of the soul, and a young one at that (and this is not about age, but about inner self-awareness). A tangerine-currant explosion of emotions (with an admixture of pink grapefruit), mixed with bright peonies, jasmine and violet flowers - it's hard to say what is more in this perfume, ─ flowers or citruses. All these fresh sparkling notes end up beautifully set on a sensual base of cedar, white musk and cashmeran. It reveals itself on the skin very individually, but it definitely deserves at least a “zatest” (as aromaholics like to say).

The composition includes aromatic notes mandarin, blackcurrant, peach, pink grapefruit, peony, jasmine, violet, cashmeran, cedar, white musk.

For whom: for her

Lemons and Lilies: Agua de Loewe Ella, Loewe

Loewe created a perfumery ode to flowers and green citruses in 2009. Lemon, bergamot and kumquat are clearly audible in it. But they sound soft, even delicate, for which, of course, you should thank the water and garden lilies. Delicate, transparent, fresh floral-citrus fleur. Romantic and unobtrusive, the fragrance will perfectly fit into any dress code.

The composition includes aromatic notes kumquat, lemon, bergamot, water lily, rose petals, passionflower, bourbon pepper, Moroccan cedar, musk and sandalwood from Mysore (India).

For whom: for her

Jasmine in Lemon Peel: Alien Eau Sublime, Mugler

One of the most beautiful "aliens" of the Thierry Mugler perfume line. The trademark "jasmine" base, which is found in the entire Alien line, sounds here against the backdrop of citrus fruits: lemon, orange and tangerine. The fragrance has a frankly citrus start, which is confusing, but the next minute on the skin in a sweet and sour haze lemon peel with vanilla, luxurious white flowers of Arabian jasmine are revealed.

The composition includes aromatic notes lemon, Arabic jasmine, orange, mandarin, galbanum, heliotrope, tare, cherry blossom, orange blossom, cashmeran, vetiver, white amber and vanilla.

For whom: for her

Orange and dot: Totem Orange, Kenzo

Orange. Sassy, real, juicy red citrus. A fragrance that uplifts the mood and evokes persistent associations with the main holiday of the year (even despite the absence of mandarin notes in the pyramid). Kenzo has always succeeded in perfume provocations. This fragrance is no exception. It is persistently addictive: the hand itself reaches for the bottle whenever it is cloudy outside the window and the soul asks for a portion of positive.

The composition includes aromatic notes bitter orange, lemon, lemon blossom, fig tree, peach, vetiver, white cedar and cocoa.

For whom: for her and for him

It doesn't exist, but it exists: Pomelo Fizz, Comptoir Sud Pacifique

(Not) believe what is written: inside the bottle with an orange sticker, the juicy pulp of the pomelo is really hiding, even if completely different notes are responsible for this olfactory illusion. Surprisingly, the combination of grapefruit and blackcurrant gives a complete feeling that somewhere nearby someone secretly ate the sweet pomelo fruit. A 100% citrusy, joyful perfume, new in 2017, which you should definitely get to know better.

The composition includes aromatic notes bergamot, grapefruit, blackcurrant, tangerine, orange blossom, artemisia, musk, myrrh and amber.

For whom: for her and for him

Tactful Mandarin: Mandarine, Il Profvmo

Powerful mandarin, unobtrusive, not sillage, sitting close to the skin, mixed with woody notes. Not sweet, not bitter. Such a very sedate perfume. Unisex in its purest form - elegantly sounds on a woman, elegantly - on a man. And also he- great option for experiments on layering, where it will play the role of a base.

The composition includes aromatic notes tangerine, orange blossom, lychee, heliotrope, calicanth, sweet mint and atlas cedar.

For whom: for her and for him

Tea with Bergamot: Aqua Allegoria Bergamote Calabria, Guerlain

Bright sonorous bergamot, green tea with lemon and ginger, fresh and spicy at the same time (due to all that combination of ginger and citrus notes). Perhaps a little more masculine than stated (“unisex” is a relative term), a little more brutal than other citrus fragrances in our selection. Perhaps you should start your acquaintance with this novelty of 2017 from Guerlain, inhaling the fragrance from the skin of the man you love.

The composition includes aromatic notes Calabrian bergamot, petitgrain, cardamom, ginger, white musk.

For whom: for her and for him

Smell- This individuality, which completes the image, and it doesn’t matter whether you are wearing casual attire or a fashionable bow. Thanks to the smell, you can recognize a person, enjoy his presence, or even experience sexual desire. Therefore, the individual choice of fragrance is so important for each individual. In this article, we will talk about the principles of choosing toilet water, as well as talk about the latest innovations in the world of perfumery.

The main thing in the article

What is fashionable to smell and how to choose toilet water?

Find an explanation for the fact that a person among thousands of all kinds of spirits chooses one "his" who completely satisfies his fragrance, impossible.

Scientists tried to explain this phenomenon and came to the conclusion that attachment to a certain smell is due to life positions, social status and individual character of a person.

Therefore, it is impossible to say that it is fashionable to smell a certain bouquet of aromas. But still , psychological predisposition to the choice of toilet water exists.

Light floral aromas , smelling of freshness , attract active cheerful fidgets .
Woody fragrances are liked by romantic , dreamy natures .
Floral-fruity scents are chosen by carefree, cheerful people.
The prominent smell of powder and vanilla is loved by independent individuals.
Leather sharp notes are considered strong-willed and are suitable for men. half or independent, motivated women.

As for the choice of toilet water for yourself, then you should guided by the following rules:

listen to yourself. If you don't like the fragrance, even if it is the most fashionable this season, give up in favor of what you liked from the first breath.
Smell the scent for yourself. Since the smell is revealed on the body of each person in its own way, before purchasing the fragrance you like, apply it around the wrist. Smell the first time right away, and to make a decision, wait 8-10 minutes until the smell opens up, and only then make a choice - to buy or not.
Behind P go shopping for spirits after dinner. Scientists have proven that the receptors in the nose are especially sensitive in the afternoon, so you will certainly “smell your scent”.
No more than three flavors in one day. To avoid getting lost in scents , make it a rule to only smell three scents in one day . Otherwise, by "clogging" the nose receptors with different smells, you run the risk of buying eau de toilette, which will seem terrible the next day.
Always smell before buying. If you have been using the same perfume for more than one year, still smell it before you buy it, as it happens that different batches of the same eau de toilette have differences in smell.

Trendy Woody Fragrances

Flavors with a bright woody accent are quite popular. You can also highlight smells that have a completely woody sound. They are suitable for both men and strong-willed females. Many manufacturers successfully mix woody base with floral-fruity or oriental spicy notes . The bright and fashionable representatives of this group include:

Palissandre d'Or. The fragrance , which appeared in 2015 , conquered the critics and has already found its audience . The main accent is made on rosewood and cedar, but this does not make the smell monotonous. After the first impression, a composition with berry and spicy aromas is revealed, which makes it sound like sweet notes, flowing into a hint of woody bitterness.
Dune by Dior. The basis was sandalwood and rosewood wood. The aroma can be called spring , as the woody base is diluted with citrus and vanilla smells . The opening of the base has an interspersed salty marine note.
Tobacco Vanille. One of the sensational Toma Forda fragrances , which has been confidently holding the leading position in the top reviews for more than ten years . The woody composition is filled with the sweetness of pipe tobacco with cherry aroma. There are also hints of vanilla and tonka beans. Many people think that this is a masculine fragrance, but no, today it is interpreted as unisex. On delicate female skin, it sounds with aggressive sexuality, and men, thanks to it, smell slightly brutal.
Estée Lauder. A muted , wintery fragrance that opens with warm , spicy notes . The overall composition consists of woody notes and the freshness of flowers. Top notes play with the smell of lily , jasmine and magnolia . The heart of the perfume is a woody fragrance, and the base notes are honey, tangerine, pepper and sandalwood.

Top citrus scents

Perfumes and toilet waters with notes of citrus are considered light, fresh, unobtrusive, so they are associated with the spring and summer period. Perfumers, creating masterpieces of smells, mainly use smells bergamot, lemon, mandarin, orange, grapefruit, lime. Although citrus fragrances are not particularly persistent, they do not cease to go out of fashion. Let's present the top ones.

Eau d'Hadrien. At first glance, a rustic fragrance that opens up into a stormy composition of grapefruit and lemon, complemented by a subdued scent of cypress.
In Red. Already a classic Armand Basi. A rich citrus base dominates the blend mandarin and bergamot . Some freshness adds interspersed aromas of jasmine and violet.
Clinic Happ y. Perfume for mature ladies. Citrus notes predominate (bergamot, grapefruit), which perfectly merge into tandem with the smells of white lily, magnolia, tangerine tree flowers, which gives the perfume persistence.
I love love. Playful smell from Moschino , which fell in love with young girls who brought him to the top reviews. Aromas of orange and grapefruit with a sweet aftertaste of red currant are hidden in the bottle. The heart opens with a floral aroma, but this does not make the scent cloying.

Floral perfumery : the main novelties

The flower palette is considered the most popular as all women love flowers. Fashion houses that produce luxury perfumes have done their best and released quite a few fragrances that have already become popular. As for floral perfumes, I would like to highlight the following:

Dahlia Divin Le Nectar deperfume, presented by a famous brand givenchy, combined the floral lightness and the spicy scent of the East. The top notes are filled with mimosa , which dissolves to give way to a hearty fragrance that combines rose and jasmine . Served as a base bouquet of sandalwood, musk, fragrant vanilla . In the composition you can feel all the mystery of the East.
Aura Loewe Floral - a fresh floral perfume with a woody-musky aftertaste. The top notes are of carrot seeds and citruses. In the heart are placed : orange , violet and rose otto . Vanilla, musky and leather scents are the basis of this innovation. The perfume is fresh, full of colors to the maximum.
La Belle et l Ocelot Eau de Toilette was "brought out" by the brand Salvador Dali back in 2016. But only now it can be purchased in free sale. The first impression of the perfume is made by grapefruit, apple flowers and pear. In the heart notes, a delicate aroma of jasmine, Turkish rose and iris appears. Taken as a base white cedar and musk .

All the variety of aromas is usually divided into only four main categories: there are floral, fresh, oriental and woody aromas. However, in each category there are several subspecies that allow you to describe a particular fragrance as accurately as possible.

Aldehyde flavors

The legendary Chanel No. 5 at one time became the first representative of the category of aldehyde fragrances and still remains the best example of aldehyde perfumes.

The perfume composition of such fragrances necessarily includes aldehydes - chemical compounds that provide perfumes with an original floral scent with powdery and sometimes woody accents.

The most famous aldehyde fragrances are Chanel No. 5, Estee Lauder White Linen, Elizabeth Taylor White Diamonds.

Aquatic ("marine") fragrances

Representatives of the category of aquatic fragrances are suitable for both women and men - fresh light fragrances are ideal for hot summer weather. Green and citrus notes often add special freshness and some piquancy to such aromas. The most famous representatives of the category of aquatic fragrances are Davidoff Cool Water, Calvin Klein Escape, L'Eau d'Issey, Ralph Lauren Polo Sport.

citrus flavors

Notes of lemon, fresh bitter orange, mandarin, bergamot make citrus fragrances especially fresh and juicy: members of the citrus family of fragrances are well suited for active people and for warm weather. Citrus fragrances for women are very often attracted by an interesting combination of fresh citrus and floral or fruity notes, and in a perfume composition men's fragrances, in addition to citrus chords, woody or spicy notes are most often included. Examples of citrus fragrances are Eau de Cartier, Azzaro Chrome, Fresh Sugar.

Chypre fragrances

Chypre is one of the most unusual and interesting categories in perfumery. Chypre fragrances are a peculiar combination of notes of bergamot, oak moss and labdanum, which forms the basis of the perfume composition of both men's and women's fragrances. The exotic combination of woody and floral accords with moss notes can be more feminine, with fruity tones, or masculine, with leather accents - but chypre fragrances are always very dry and really unusual. The most famous chypre fragrances are the legendary Mitsouko by Guerlain, Christian Dior Miss Dior, Serge Lutens Chypre Rouge, Guerlain Sous le Vent, Cartier Baiser du Dragon.

Floral fragrances

A traditional category of perfumery, floral fragrances are built on notes of jasmine, peony, rose, gardenia, oak rose - sometimes combined with exquisite powdery accents. The most famous representatives of the category of floral fragrances are Dior J "Adore, Kenzo Parfum d" Ete, perfumes from the brands Vera Wang and Marc Jacobs.

Characteristic representatives of this fragrance family are Chanel No. 19, Carolina Herrera Herrera for Men Sensual Vetiver, CK Eternity for Men Summer, Escada Sentiment for Men, Emporio Armani He.

"Leather" fragrances

A characteristically masculine, very deep leather accord, combined with warm woody and spicy accords, makes "leather" fragrances truly interesting and unforgettable. Characteristic representatives of the family of “leather” fragrances are Escada Magnetism for Men, Perry Ellis America for Men, Chanel Antaeus, Ralph Lauren Romance Silver.

Oriental ("Oriental") fragrances

Oriental or "Oriental" fragrances are one of the oldest and most popular categories in perfumery, and include fragrances for both women and men. The perfume composition of oriental perfumes is based on warm, spicy notes of amber, musk, vanilla. Exotic, sensual and endlessly seductive, oriental fragrances are usually intense and deep, perfect for the evening and the cold autumn/winter season. The most famous and almost iconic oriental fragrances are Guerlain Shalimar, Yves Saint Laurent Opium, Dior Addict, Giorgio Armani Sensi, Burberry Classic.

Perfume is a way to attract attention. Light and delicate, sweet or fresh, spicy or floral fragrance of perfume will warn you of your arrival, and its loop will not let you forget about you after leaving.

Smells are most strongly associated with the emotional sphere. They improve state of mind, create a special mood, and the associations caused by them are forever fixed in the mind. Therefore, if you want to be imbued with a new way, feel beautiful and confident, be remembered for a long time by a man, learn how to choose and use complex compositions correctly.

In our article, we will talk about fragrant guides to the world of plants, what they are, how to choose them, what options can be found on sale.

Floral perfume for women

This is one of the most common and popular types of products. Delicate, soft, sweet smells of flora: familiar (rose, lily of the valley, violet, jasmine, lilac and others) and exotic (orchids, orange tree, strelitzia) - are combined in compositions that can complement the image of any woman.

Any perfume consists of three notes:

Upper or head. Consist of elements that evaporate within the first 15 minutes. We feel them when applied.

Medium or heart. They appear 15-20 minutes after application and last from 2 to 5 hours while the medium volatile essential substances evaporate.

Lower or base. These components last the longest - up to 10-15 hours. They remain on hair and clothing after the lighter components are gone. They are responsible for the plume and aftertaste left by the perfume.

Most of the fragrances that will be discussed are sensual and bright top and middle notes. Perfumes with the smell of flowers as a base are much less common. But there are a lot of variations with other subgroups. You can easily find combinations with:

fruity;
"green";
chypre;
powdery;
woody;
eastern (oriental);
leather;
amber;
fougere families.

Such a variety of compositions allows you to choose the right option for any occasion. Even common ingredients such as rose and jasmine will feel completely different next to other ingredients. Among the floral perfumes you will find smells that will suit and young girls and more mature women. And classic combinations, the relevance of which is not lost over time.

Perfume for a girl: the best floral perfumes

Girls under 25 usually choose one fragrance and use it mostly. At this age, they still often do not distinguish whether this or that option suits them or just likes it. And also do not highlight samples intended for the evening, formal or informal events.

Fresh and sweet, alluring and intriguing notes emphasize energy, lightness and youth. Often, young women like "delicious" smells associated with their favorite treats or famous cocktails.

by Versace. The very charm of summer and sun. The brightness of orange blossom is softened by notes of pear, turning into a combination of delicate floral tones: freesia, water lily, mimosa. The composition leaves behind a warm plume of woody base oils.

by Yves Saint Laurent. A nice example of "delicious" perfume. The freshness of fruits and berries is combined with the delicate sweetness of white freesia, rose and lily of the valley.

by L'Artisan Parfumeur. This fresh smell will emphasize the naturalness and charm of youth. It combines the subtle sophistication of jasmine, the sweetness of tuberose, the invigorating tartness of orange and lime.

Popular floral perfumes and fragrances for women

Over time, tastes and requirements for perfume change. Closer to 30, ladies gain confidence and are already well aware of their preferences. They are gradually moving away from fruity, citrus and "tasty" options, making tart and complex shades part of their style. They are more likely to choose sensual smells and bitter notes. Compositions designed for this category of buyers are distinguished by a special composition.

by Christian Dior. This controversial bouquet will appeal to strong and self-confident women. It combines soft notes of fruits and berries with the tenderness of violet and the coolness of freesia, lily of the valley and magnolia. And musk tones add sexuality to the composition and make this composition a great choice for going out.

by Guerlain. A perfect example of a floral and chypre combination. A sophisticated and feminine perfume combines the sweet smells of Bulgarian roses with the gentle coolness of peonies, lilies of the valley and freesias, complementing them with the spice of white musk and patchouli.

from Gucci. tender and exquisite composition. In it, the freshness and coolness of citrus fruits, peony and rose are set off by the velvety sweetness of osmanthus. The bottom notes are patchouli and sandalwood.

. Intense and sensual, it combines woody and musky tones. Suitable for women who are not afraid to attract attention. Spicy and tart notes are softened by the softness of the rose.

Classic women's floral perfumes and fragrances are the best choice at all times

Manufacturers annually release dozens of new compositions. But there are fragrances that continue to be in demand, even with a long history behind them. Their names are known even to people far from well-known brands.

from Chanel. This is the first aldehyde perfume. They are not tied to any one component. The whole variety of notes is revealed only when interacting with human body. Top notes are lemon, bergamot, orange blossom, ylang-ylang. Heart tones are formed from a combination of iris, lily of the valley, jasmine. The base is musky, woody, "green" smells, softened by vanilla tenderness.

by Nina Ricci. Sweetish and intoxicating cloud. The tenderness of rose, violet, iris and jasmine is softened by spices, fruity, musky and woody notes.

by Guerlain. An oriental perfume with botanical undertones. This spicy composition reveals itself gradually: it starts with sharp citrus notes, gradually adds a deep and sensual "sound" of iris, jasmine, vetiver, rose, leaving behind a woody-musky trail.

Rating of floral fragrances for women's perfumes from the point of view of a man

The smell acts directly on the subconscious. It can radically change the impression of a woman, and with it the nature of the relationship. For some, how a partner smells is more important than how they look. That is why the whimsical train is one of important ways be remembered by a man. But not everything that pleases and seems pleasant to women causes a similar reaction in their strong halves.

Many men like musk, it enhances sexual attraction. And cinnamon and vanilla create a feeling of comfort and help form attachment. Some people like sweet fruity flavors. Some prefer woody forest notes, others prefer the cool freshness of the sea.

Men like quality perfumes with natural scents. Perfume should be persistent, not cloying. It must be applied in moderation.

citrus flavors

Summer is the time for invigorating and bright perfume compositions! recharge positive emotions and citrus aromas will help to cheer up in the hot summer. Sparkling and refreshing notes of orange, tangerine, grapefruit, lemon, lime and bergamot perfectly lift your spirits and keep you in good shape throughout the day. Citrus fragrances of perfumes are represented not only by fruits, but also by plants that smell like citruses, such as verbena and orange blossom.

Peculiarities

The smell of citrus has always been held in high esteem by perfumers. The only downside to citrus scents is that they don't last very long. The fact is that essential oils citruses evaporate very quickly, and therefore we always hear their smell at the beginning of a perfume composition, and then it is replaced by other chords - floral, spicy, fruity or woody. Therefore, if you want to buy citrus perfumes, it is better to take a closer look at their pyramid, so that an hour after application, the aroma of the selected perfume will not bring disappointment. Citrus aromas are chosen by cheerful, active and self-confident people. As a rule, these are light and unobtrusive everyday compositions. However, there are also evening citrus scents that provide depth and richness through enticing sweet or warm spicy notes.

Examples

Every year perfume world replenished with hundreds of citrus novelties. This family, along with the floral, can be called the most extensive in perfumery, because citrus notes are found in many compositions. A prime example of a citrus unisex fragrance is Neroli Portofino by Tom Ford. Exciting, daring and optimistic perfume is filled with the delicate fragrance of neroli and the explosive energy of bergamot and mandarin.

The fair sex can take a closer look at "Saharienne" from Yves Saint Laurent - a citrus perfume for women, released in 2011. A complex and refined aroma will give its owner the unobtrusive sweetness of tangerines, bergamot astringency and lemon sourness. An unusually bright composition charges with a positive mood and inspires new discoveries. And, of course, you should pay attention to the cult line Aqua Allegoria from Guerlain, namely the composition "Orange Magnifica" - an incredibly natural and surprisingly airy fragrance that makes you feel closer to nature.

"Dior Homme Cologne 2013" by Dior is a men's citrus perfume. The sensational, one might say cult fragrance is now at the peak of popularity. unobtrusive and light composition This perfume will reveal to its owner the delightful smell of Calabrian bergamot combined with grapefruit flower and musk.
