Fragrance Notes and Families

Top Notes

Citrus & Sweet Fruit

The first impression of a fragrance, typically composed of light, fresh scents (ex., citrus, herbs, fruits) that tend to evaporate quickly. 


Middle Notes

Cypress & Fresh Florals

The heart of a fragrance that defines the scent’s character and emerges after the top notes fade. Often composed of florals, spices or fruits.


Bottom Notes

Vetiver

The foundation of a scent that dries down and lingers the longest is typically composed of rich, deep aromas that add warmth and depth, such as woods, ambers and musks.


Fragrance Families and Subfamilies

Family: Citrus, Subfamily: Citrus Woods

A fragrance family is a way of categorizing scents that share common olfactory characteristics, often displayed in a fragrance wheel. For example, Mary Kay® True Optimism™ Eau de Parfum fits into the Citrus – or fresh – family along with a scent like MK High Intensity Ocean® Cologne Spray, but differs in its earthy, woody middle notes, which places it in the Citrus Woods subfamily.


Adding to Your Fragrance Wardrobe

What’s a Fragrance Wardrobe?

A fragrance wardrobe is a personalized collection of scents for different occasions, moods and/or seasons.

Mary Kay® True Optimism™ Eau de Parfum is a fantastic choice for an everyday fragrance due to its fresh, invigorating scent. If he’s more outdoorsy, he’ll love the fragrance’s earthy heart that captures his more adventurous side. 


Fragrance Inspiration

About Mary Kay® True Optimism™ Eau de Parfum

“Inspired by the universal appeal of fresh and clean fragrances, I wanted to craft a scent that takes one on an olfactory journey of freshness. The fragrance opens with an energetic burst of fluorescent citrus and crisp aromatic notes. I wanted to capture the cool, ozonic essence of crystal-clear water with refreshing nuances of sophisticated, modern florals and crushed cardamom. Adding dimension, the scent dries down into a sensual, slightly warmer impression while preserving a core of contemporary freshness.” – Gino Percontino, Perfumer 

FAQs

In the fragrance industry, Cologne is a category name for men’s fragrances, much like Perfume is a category name for women’s fragrances. These terms are not typically part of the name of a fragrance. Global retail standards classify fragrances based on their concentration of aromatic compounds (Eau de Parfum, etc.). Each fragrance’s classification is included in the fragrance name. Historically, many Mary Kay® men’s fragrances have included Cologne in their names due to regional preferences. However, to align with global standards and to create a consistent fragrance shopping experience, Mary Kay will include the fragrance classification in the name of new fragrances. Mary Kay® True Optimism™ is classified as an Eau de Parfum (EDP), which is included in the name of the fragrance.
