Mid Notes
What they are: Once the top notes fade, the heart of the fragrance emerges. These notes are richer and form the core of the scent, often lasting for several hours. They bridge the fresh top notes and the deeper base notes, making them the "personality" of the fragrance.
Chemistry: Mid notes have larger molecular structures than top notes, which allows them to evaporate more slowly. They tend to balance the entire fragrance, providing both complexity and longevity.
Best examples:
Florals: Rose, jasmine, gardenia
Spices: Clove, cinnamon, nutmeg
Green Notes: Lavender, sage, chamomile
