Fragrance layering, done properly

Two scents are
better than one.

Topnote is the app for layering fragrance. People publish recipes for combining two to four scents — which goes on first, how many sprays, and where — and rate each other’s.

What Topnote does

Recipes you can repeat

Order, spray count and placement — the part most combinations get wrong, written down so anyone can wear it tonight.

It always says why

Every fragrance page suggests others that layer well with it, with a score and the reason behind it — even when the answer is don’t.

Ranked honestly

Recipes are ordered on a confidence-weighted score, never a raw average, so a lucky pair of five-star ratings cannot top the list.

For fragrance houses and advertisers

Where people decide what to wear with what they own

Topnote is a community of people who layer fragrance on purpose: they keep a shelf of the bottles they own, publish how they combine them, and rate what works. If you make or market fragrance and want to talk to us, we would like to hear from you.
