My question is how long does it take for a fragrance, once sprayed or applied, to move through the various stages - opening, mid notes, basenotes?
I am assuming that like most all of our discussions - it depends. Probably depends on the concentration of the scent, the individual's skin chemistry, etc. But does anyone have any thoughts or knowledge of this? Is there a standard?
In another thread I commented about Aventus, which I have been sampling - and it has been a good lesson in that I had not given it enough time to develop.
So the question is - how much time, and how will you know that you have moved through all the stages to know that you have sniffed the full complement of the scent?
