Niche fragrances are created mainly by small, highly specialized companies dealing primarily with creating perfumes, as opposed to multi-sector corporations producing mainstream perfumes widely available in chain perfumeries.

The choice of a perfume, especially a niche one, should be conscious, not accidental. Incorrectly chosen can cause ailments as headache, dizziness or nausea. First of all, we should define the fragrance group that suits us well.

A perfume is a mixture of essential oils or fragrances, fixatives and solvents, usually ethanol or a mixture of light aliphatic alcohols. Each fragrance consists of three groups of fragrance notes which are top, heart and base notes. It is a collection of scents that develop over time.
