After releasing six fragrances with the Base Notes collection and three fragrances with the Top Notes collection, AFFINESSENCE is continuing its exploration of scent with the Heart Notes collection.
Heart notes, the middle layer of perfumes that emerge after the top notes fade, form the core of the fragrance and last longer to define its overall character. Rose Réglisse and Safran Néroli expressly focus on the allure of floral and fruity accords.
While Rose Réglisse plays with the bold, sweet spiciness of licorice and anise, lush litchi, Grasse rose, magnolia and a delicate, powdery finish of violet, Safran Néroli captivates by pairing its titular notes of saffron and neroli with black tea, honey, davana and ylang-ylang.
