How to Choose Your Perfume: The Olfazeta Guide to the 7 Olfactory Families

How to choose your perfume: the guide to the 7 olfactory families

Choosing a perfume is, above all, choosing an emotion. Faced with dozens of references in the Olfazeta catalog, it can sometimes be difficult to navigate. This is why perfumery classifies each fragrance into an olfactory family: a simple vocabulary that allows you to understand, at a glance, the character of a perfume even before smelling it.

At Belluxa, official French partner of Chogan Group SpA for the Olfazeta brand, we have chosen to present these seven families in detail, with our advice for each on how to choose according to your personality, the season, or the occasion.

The 7 Olfazeta olfactory families

  • Floral — romantic, feminine, a bouquet of flowers as a heart note.
  • Fougère — fresh and virile, a great masculine classic.
  • Hesperidic (Citrus) — lively, sparkling, perfect for everyday wear.
  • Chypre — intense and sophisticated, for asserted elegance.
  • Woody — warm and enveloping, a strong character.
  • Oriental (Amber) — sensual and mysterious, very enveloping.
  • Leather — powerful and assertive, for daring temperaments.

A family is never fixed

A perfume rarely belongs to just one family: it can combine a dominant family with one or more facets (fruity, musky, spicy, aromatic) that nuance its character. It is this combination that makes each Olfazeta fragrance unique.

How to use this guide?

In the following articles, we detail each family: its characteristic notes, the type of person it best suits, the occasions where it shines, and our suggestions from the Olfazeta perfumes available on Belluxa.fr.
