The house of Merle Norman gifted the world with Impact in 1950.
Made in the United States. Impact Merle Norman — the choice of those who appreciate depth and character in every detail.
A scent you'll want to wear again and again — discovering something new every time. The official website of Merle Norman — https://www.katanaparfums.com.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The note pyramid of Impact is shaped as a cohesive olfactory arc, where notes flow with precision and warmth. The style of Merle Norman is evident in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. Nothing here feels random, and the composition keeps a clear direction.
Its olfactory taxonomy remains readable through how the layers connect over time.
Even if the opening block is incomplete the composition still reads clear and composed, and the very first impression arrives without noise.
The inner phases are felt as a smooth transition from opening to trail, which keeps the fragrance coherent.
The gender direction is feminine, which clarifies the composition character.
Overall Impact sounds complete from start to finish — the opening sets direction, the heart develops the core line, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the scent structures best judged on skin.
