Michael Edwards' Fragrance Wheel is an ingenious tool for categorising perfumes, designed to help consumers easily navigate the world of scents. Introduced in 1983, this wheel organises fragrances into primary families and subfamilies, simplifying the process of identifying and comparing scents based on their key characteristics. The wheel is divided into four main fragrance families: Floral, Oriental, Woody, and Fresh, each with its own set of subfamilies that showcase the complexity and diversity of perfumes.
Fresh Family
The Fresh family is about lively, invigorating scents, often built around citrus, green, or marine notes. These fragrances are designed to be refreshing and energising, perfect for an uplifting burst of freshness.
• No 772 Inspired by Lime Basil & Mandarin: Falls into the Citrus family with fresh, zesty citrus notes and a herbal twist.
• No 796 Inspired by Light Blue: A fruity floral scent with crisp apple and cedar notes, embodying the refreshing spirit of the Fresh family.
