` FRAGRANCE FAMILIES All Federico Mahora fragrances have been assigned to appropriate fragrance (olfactoric) families in accordance with the best perfume practice. Federico Mahora fragrance enthusiasts can choose from among energising and fresh citrus, sensual chypre, intense and enveloping oriental, light water, elegant woody, masculine fougère, and very feminine floral fragrances.

FLORAL The floral fragrance family is the largest and most diverse group of scents. It is the essence of femininity expressed in fragrant roses, peony, jasmine oils, combined with the freshness of fruits or intensity of exotic spices. The floral fragrances family is divided into seven sub-families: floral-fruit, floral-oriental, floral-water, floral-green, floral-aldehyde, floral-citrus and floral-woody.

ORIENTAL Oriental scents are sensual and seductive. These are compositions with warm and exotic notes. They contain sweet notes of vanilla, spicy aromas of cardamom, cinnamon and clear accents of incense and ambergris. The oriental group includes a few subgroups, including: floral, fruity, spicy and woody.

CHYPRE Unique woody compositions, herb-soil patchouli aroma, aromatic bergamot oil castoreum or cedar oil, these notes pump in the heart of chypre fragrances. The name of the group comes from the French name for Cyprus. Fragrances in this group have been divided into subfamilies: chypre-fruit, chypre-woody, chypre-oriental and chypre-floral.

CITRUS Fresh and juicy fruits – lime, lemon, orange and bergamot – create an extremely refreshing citrus group, providing invigorating experience and an incredible energy boost. Initially the fragrances from this group were created mainly for men but the group is now considered universal. Depending on the composition formula, the citrus fruit family is divided into four subgroups: lemon, mandarin, orange and floral .

WOODY Warm and rich notes of sandalwood and guaiacum, patchouli oils, combined with a bit raw, yet refined aromas of cedar and vetiver create an elegant and sophisticated group of woody fragrances. The group of woody fragrances is divided into a few subfamilies: floral, fruity and oriental.

FOUGÈRE Fern and lavender complemented by oak moss, fresh herbs or coumarin, create an intriguing family of fougère fragrances . Its name is derived from French and means “fern”. The history of this group dates back to the 19th century – it was then that the most well-known fragrance composition in this group was created: Fougère Royale. Due to its composition, this group is divided into subgroups dependent on the dominant note: lavender or fern.

WATER The group of water scents is one of the youngest fragrance families. Cool, invigorating notes of sea breeze, water flowers and grasses, complemented by hints of green or metallic are dominant in this family.
