Explanation:
Se si intendono i profumi primari, secondari e terziari (vedi link in italiano) allora credo tu possa dire

primary notes
secondary notes
tertiary notes

ho controllato ed esistono

Dalla ricerca pare che note di testa di cuore e di fondo sono più usate nell'industria dei profumi...

In breve....
i primari sono quelli tipici del vitigno
i secondari quelli della vinificazione
i terziari quelli dell\'affinamento (in bottiglia e/o barrique)

15 hrs confidence:

top notes, middle notes, base/bottom notes
