A perfume base is a foundation on which to build when creating a perfume. They are fragrances that contain a mix of ingredients that last a long time and give depth and fullness. Natural fragrances such as essential oils, absolutes and isolates as well as fragrance molecules and fixatives are used. With some experience, perfume bases can even be combined with each other to form a harmonious whole, creating unique perfumes.
