Character : Perfume Lexicon & Fragrance Language
Perfume is a blend of different materials that is more than just a sum of its parts; it is a composition with its own unique character. Character in a fragrance means the impression that a perfume creates: vibrant and uplifting like citrus colognes or opulent and seductive like oriental fragrances with rich notes of vanilla, musk and spices. Each perfume is like a person– the character it possesses is created by its specific traits, which in the case of a scented blend is determined by materials and their proportions. In the same vein, just like some people have stronger characters than others, fragrances differ in terms of their distinction and individuality.
Judith R in From Gingerbread to Kue Lapis: Spicy Gourmand Perfumes for Holidays: Not exactly gingerbread, but Safran Troublant by L’Artisan Parfumeur is a favorite warm and festive fragrance of mine. December 27, 2024 at 6:13pm
