This olfactory family brings together citrus fragrances, featuring fruits such as lemon, orange, mandarin, bergamot, lime, grapefruit, citron, kumquat, and yuzu, not forgetting petit grain (essential oil obtained from the leaves of the bitter orange tree).

Citrus notes are typical of Eau de colognes, light and fresh, simple compositions, which does not mean that they are simple since to achieve enough projection and duration, it is necessary to skillfully combine them with more intense notes to improve their fixation without detracting from their freshness.

By cultural tradition, citrus fragrances are highly appreciated in Mediterranean countries. At Àuria Perfumes, we only work with top-quality raw materials that guarantee an optimal scent that fits the brand's values and satisfies consumers' expectations.

Fougère is a French term meaning fern, a plant that proliferates in humid forests, whose fragrance reproduces the scents of moss and damp earth and evokes sensations of freshness.

The fougère family evokes fragrances that can be smelled in a forest and suggests a sense of cleanliness and vitality.

Because it combined green and earthy notes, the fougère family has traditionally been attributed to masculine fragrances. At the beginning of the 20th century, its usual structure was as follows: lavender, geranium, oak moss, patchouli, and coumarin. Today, this structure is more flexible and makes room for green, floral, and woody notes that bring new expressions to the Eau de parfum: sage sclarea, rosemary, basil, mint, cypress, anise, and tea are some examples.

Woody are compositions with an intense fixation and trail. Consumers prefer to use them in the year's cold months because they convey a warm sensation.

Woody notes bring warmth to the perfume and dry, comforting, enveloping, and creamy facets.

Frequent notes in woody fragrances: cedar, mahogany, fir, acacia, sandalwood, olive, ebony, papyrus, moss, cashmere or musky wood, smoky or burnt woods, and oud.

The sweet, fresh, and natural scent of mint and ripe fruit gives rise to the fruity family that encompasses all fruits - beyond citrus fruits, which have their own family. It transmits energy and joy to the fragrance and is very present in feminine and children's fragrances, working in different ways. In women's fragrances, fruits bring a juicy and sensual touch, while children's scents transport us to a universe of taste, soft and gourmand.

Fruity notes are the result of the fragrance laboratory since, due to their high water content, the natural scent of the fruit cannot normally be extracted.

The most frequent fruity notes in perfumery are fig, apricot, apple, berry, pear, peach, plum, raspberry, pineapple, currant, coconut, blueberry, strawberry, tropical fruits, melon, watermelon, and grapes.

Although they have gained prominence in recent years, the truth is that leather perfumes date back to the 16th century, when it became fashionable to perfume the leather gloves worn by the nobility to mask the strong smell given off by tanning. Floral and musky essences softened the intense aroma of the gloves, creating a sensual, intense fragrance with an animal touch.

The creativity of perfumery is capable of recreating accord notes using dry, smoked, and burnt ingredients that reproduce the sensuality of the natural smell of leather. These notes are persistent in masculine perfumes that seek to reinforce their potency with deep, dark nuances.

Notes typical of the leather olfactory family: civet, suede, smoke, and gunpowder.

Fragrances that reproduce food ingredients are called gourmand. They can transport us to the world of confectionery with sweet notes and recreate salty, toasted notes or smells as recognizable as coffee.

Gourmand fragrances were born in the mid-20th century, thanks to advances in synthesis molecules, and are common in women's and children's perfumery, more open to exploring gustatory ingredients. However, they are increasingly common in men's perfumes (cocoa, coffee, mojito, rum, and whisky).

Most frequent gourmand notes sugar, cotton candy, caramel, coffee, cinnamon, almond, hazelnut, butter, chocolate, honey, milk, marzipan, popcorn, licorice, balsamic vinegar, amaretto, and vanilla.
