Floral – Sweet-smelling savor of flowers including Lily of the Valley, tuberose and ylang ylang.

Fruity – Popular blend in today's culture. Most of the fragrance is synthetic with a melon, apple and peach overtone.

Herbaceous – Marjoram, basil, and mint are the blended ingredients here. Specifically used in men's fragrances.

Hesperide – Group of citrus oils and orange flower products created by cold expression of the various fruit peels such as orange, lemon, tangerines, and bergamot. Giving fragrance a burst of freshness and appeal.

Iris – As beautiful as the flower itself is the aroma of Iris saturated with violet and orris note blends.

Leather – An old redolence marked by natural and synthetic notes, has a smoky, tar-like smell merged with chypres.

Moss – Outdoorsy, rich odor from nature itself with oak moss as the essential element of the chypres.
