Perfumes consist of three different layers: the top layer, the middle layer, and the base layer.

The top layer is the one that we can smell right away after spraying, the middle note is the scent that rises with time, and the base note is the scent that blends with your skin after 30 minutes and is long-lasting.

These layers differ from one perfume to another, as Cologne is typed with only one layer.
