Fragrance
Directory: We have a database of over 2500 male and
unisex fragrances, with details of the perfume house and
the year of launch. Basenotes has over 1000 product images
and detailed information on the majority of new releases
as well as classic scents. Fragrances can be viewed by
name, house or year of launch.
Grooming
Guide: We carry information on many of the top grooming
ranges, and independent reviews of their products. We
teach you how to get a close shave, and what to look for
when buying an electric razor. Want to know about Face
Scrubs, Shaving Oil or Hair Clay then we give you the
low-down.
Discontinued
and Hard to find Fragrances: Basenotes knows how frustrating
it is when you can no longer find your favourite fragrance.
We have a regularly updated list of lines that have been
discontinued by the manufacturer, so you can check if
your fragrance is still in production. Basenotes also
features a 'fragrance wanted message board' where visitors
can ask each other for help in finding those long-lost
fragrances.
Shop
Watch: We know how scary it can be when you buy online.
We provide links to many online stores, along with visitors
comments, whether positive or negative.
Independent
Views: We're not part of some big cosmetics firm,
secretly trying to promote certain products. We just want
to give the consumer the facts. We actively encourage
our visitors to give their personal comments about products
featured on the site. Basenotes will publish both
the good and the bad reviews.
Articles
and FAQs: Learn how to get a close shave, how to buy
fragrance, what a 'fragrance family is' and much more.
Basenotes features articles on many aspects of the world
of fragrance and grooming, along with interviews with
top industry figures like Michael Edwards and the Fragrance
Foundation's Annette Green
Lively
discussion forum: In real life, guys aren't too good
at discussing fragrances, cleansing and grooming with
each other. We'd rather chat about football and women.
However under the anonymity of the internet, we can sit
and talk about fragrances and skincare with like-minded
people. The discussion forum boasts over 400 members and
often receives over 1000 posts each month.
