Understanding the Elements of Fragrance Composition
Fragrances are composed of three main elements: top notes, middle notes, and base notes. Top notes are the first scents you experience when you light a candle, typically lasting for about 15 minutes. Middle notes emerge after the top notes have evaporated, providing the main body of the fragrance. Base notes provide the foundation, offering the longest-lasting scent. At Thompson Ferrier, we meticulously select ingredients for each of these components to create balanced and harmonious fragrances.

Choosing the Right Ingredients
The quality of ingredients can make or break a fragrance. At Thompson Ferrier, we use only the highest-quality materials, including natural essential and fragrance oils. We collaborate with some of the most prestigious fragrance houses in the world, like Givaudan, to source our ingredients, ensuring that each fragrance is crafted with the finest materials available.

Creating the Perfect Balance
Crafting a fragrance is about more than just selecting the right ingredients; it’s about finding the perfect balance between them. At Thompson Ferrier, we take a unique approach to fragrance blending, experimenting with different combinations until we achieve the ideal harmony of top, middle, and base notes. We also consider the mood and atmosphere we want to create with each fragrance, ensuring that each scent is perfectly suited to its intended use.
