The Chanel No. 5 profile
- Top: Aldehydes, neroli, ylang-ylang, bergamot
- Heart: Iris, jasmine, may rose
- Base: Sandalwood, vetiver, vanilla, civet
The aldehyde top + jasmine-sandalwood drydown defines luxury perfumery. Cold-air diffusion brings the full structure into a room without flattening it.
Why cold-air diffusion for designer perfume profiles
Designer perfumes are built to express a layered drydown over hours of skin contact. In a room, cold-air nebulizing delivers all three layers — top, heart, base — simultaneously in proper proportions. Ultrasonic water diffusers wash out volatile top notes and dilute heavy base notes; the result is a flat, watered-down version of the original.
