Floral notes give a fragrance its petal-like character, ranging from the fresh, airy feel of peony and orange blossom to the creamy richness of tuberose, the powdery softness of iris and the honeyed depth of jasmine. Rose can appear dewy, crisp, spicy or velvety, depending on the surrounding materials.
In perfume, florals most often shape the heart, where they provide the main character between brighter top notes and deeper base notes. Citrus and green accords keep a bouquet light and fresh; vanilla, amber, musk and woods make it warmer, smoother or more lasting. Browse these women's fragrances if you enjoy floral scents in styles that range from clean and delicate to opulent and richly layered.
