This site has been a long time in the making. I started it back in 2001, but due to personal reasons, it was put on hold. It was resurrected in April 2024 after months of working around the clock. I hope you enjoy exploring FindaScent as much as I have enjoyed creating and reviving it.

Fragrance Families
Fragrance families categorize perfumes based on common characteristics, which can create a framework to help understand the diverse range of scents. Floral fragrances are epitomized by the essence of flowers which evoke elegance and femininity. Oriental scents blend warm, exotic notes like vanilla and spices, offering richness and sensuality. Fresh fragrances which often featuring citrus and herbal notes, evoke a clean and invigorating feel. Woody scents which are rooted in earthy notes like cedar and sandalwood, convey warmth and sophistication.![Fruity Fragrance Family](/images/fragrance-families/fruity.webp)

Fragrance Notes
Fragrance notes are the main components that form the backbone of fragrances, they are carefully selected and blended to create a wide array of scents that appeal to our senses. These notes can be either derived from a natural source, such as flowers, fruits and spices or synthesized in a lab to achieve specific profiles or to mimic their natural countapart. The skill of perfumers lies in the ability combination of these diverse elements to produce a unique and captivating fragrance.![Amber Fragrance Note](/images/notes/thumbs/amber.jpg)

Fragrance Ingredients
The molecular backbone of perfumes and colognes, the actual 'ingredients' encompass a vast array of chemical compounds that provide the scents upon which fragrances are built. These ingredients range from naturally occurring organic compounds like terpenes and esters found in essential oils, to sophisticated synthetic molecules like aldehydes and musks engineered for their unique scent profiles.![2-Acetyl Thiazole Fragrance Note](/images/chemicals/2-acetyl-thiazole-model.png)
