The Art of Layering Fragrances

## Building Your Signature Scent Layering fragrances is one of the most personal and creative acts in the world of perfumery. Rather than wearing a single scent, layering allows you to build depth, complexity, and a truly unique olfactory identity. ## Start With the Heaviest Notes Always apply your base-heavy scent first — ouds, musks, and resins cling to skin the longest. Let it settle for a minute before layering anything lighter on top. ## The Rule of Three The most harmonious combinations typically involve three fragrance families: a **base** (oud, amber, sandalwood), a **heart** (rose, jasmine, iris), and a **top** (citrus, green, aquatic). Mondmorrea's collection is built around this principle. ## Pulse Points Are Everything Apply to warm pulse points — wrists, neck, inner elbows — where body heat diffuses the fragrance naturally throughout the day. ## Experiment Without Fear There are no rules beyond what smells beautiful to you. Some of the most iconic personal scents were discovered entirely by accident.
