There is increasing demand for perfumes. They mask the body odor. Various methods such as solvent extraction, hydro distillation and enfleurag can be used for oil extraction. Distillation based recovery processes such as steam and vacuum distillation are preferred for the extraction of essential oils from plant materials. Other methods include solvent extraction, expression or enfleurage. The current review summarizes research on various methods for oil extraction and perfume formation from various raw materials. Key words: Distillation, extraction, yield, essential oil, solvent. INTRODUCTION and animal substances are traditionally used Fragrance oil(s) are also known as for perfume formation. Essential oils, pure aroma oils, aromatic oils, and flavor oils. grain oil and water are three key ingredients They are synthetic aroma compounds or in relation to perfume making.

  • The Senses in Early Modern England, 1558–1660
    5 Seeing smell Holly Dugan In January 2013, the Institute for Art and Olfaction commissioned graphic artist Micah Hahn and his design studio AutumnSeventy to create a series of prints on perfumery to commemorate its opening in Los Angeles.1 The result was Molecules, Series 1, which depicts three of the most influential molecules that defined twentieth-century perfumery – aldehyde C12, Iso E Super®, and Galaxolide.2 Gilded and embossed, the prints emphasize the chemical structure of these molecules, even as it renders them as fine art. That the prints are also lightly scented with each aromachemical depicted on it emphasizes the broader, and one might say synaesthetic, take on the mission of the institute: to connect fineart with olfaction. Although it is a visual representation of molecules that define modern perfumery, Molecules, Series 1 thus joins a long art historical tradition of cross-modal representations of sensation, particularly smell. Can a molecule be considered fine art? And, if so, which representation of that molecule best captures its olfactory beauty and renders it ‘visible’? Consider, for example, Hahn’s Galaxolide (Figure 3). It playfully invokes a wide variety of sensory modes to capture the aesthetic of Galaxolide. The print highlights both its chemical formula – C18H26 O – and its structural formula. Both are linked to its cultural associations with perfumery and public health. Galaxolide is a second-generation polycyclic synthetic musk, discovered in the 1960s, meant to synthesize the natural scent of deer musk. Translated into the language of public health, it is a hydrophobic but lipophilic ‘toxin’: it won’t wash off in water and is easily stored in human fat.3 Rendered into the language of commercial perfumery, however, it smells ‘clean’, a ‘musky, flowery, woody odor’ with a ‘sweet, powdery nuance’.4 Both its scent and its structure made it ideal for use in laundry detergents and soaps.

The purpose of this study was to do a proof of principle investigation and to study the main factors that affected partitioning of PRMs into the gel network system shampoos and determine the effect that perfume incorporation had on the shampoo stability of the different formulations . Gel network premixes (literally a conditioner) were formulated then incorporated into a standard shampoo base. Changes in formulation of the gel network such as chain length of fatty alcohols and fatty alcohol ratios were done and its effect on stability and perfume migration studied. A technical accord with 25 PRMs with a very wide range of physical properties was used as a marker.

  • Perfumery in Ancient Greek and Roman Societies
    Perfumery in Ancient Greek and Roman Societies erfumery dates back at least 5,000 years, with origins Pin ancient Mesopotamia, Egypt, and Indus Valley culture. The techniques were further refined in the Bronze Age Mediterranean: Minoan records detail oil deliveries for perfumers while Mycenaean tablets also mention perfume manufacture. Later Greek and Roman sources are more specific about perfumes, though the terminology can be somewhat confusing, if not contradictory. Theophrastos (ca. 270–285 BCE; On Odors), Pliny the Elder (23–79 CE; Natural History), and Dioskourides (ca. 40–90 CE; On Medical Material) all covered the subject, in some capacity. Archaeology reveals further evidence, and both religious and funerary contexts can be rich in perfume bottles. The perfume workshop at Pyrgos on Cyprus, excavated in 2003, is among the oldest, dating to ca. 1850 BCE. —Text by Benton Kidd Curator of Ancient Art I. Uses All evidence indicates that perfumery was a thriving industry in antiquity, and one integral to many aspects of ancient culture. Purchases and donations of perfumes for religious sanctuaries were not uncommon, and literary references imply that temples were kept fragrant to placate the gods. Perfumed oils and tree saps, such as myrrh and balsam, could also burn like incense. A temple to Athena at Elis, near Olympia, was said to have had saffron mixed into its wall plaster, and thus the temple’s interior was still fragrant 500 years later. In addition to fragrance, some perfumes also had medicinal properties, such as the celebrated “Balm of Gilead,” a balsam that ostensibly remedied a multitude of ailments and even functioned as an abortifacient.

  • The Chemistry of Smellable Molecules → Volatility?
    The chemistry of smellable molecules volatility? The chemical categories to which most odoriferous substances belong are : 1. Terpenes (= isoprenoides): e.g. Menthol, lemonene, thymol 2. Phenoles e.g. Coumarin, vanillin, heliotropin 3. Sulfuric compounds: e.g. Allyl isothiocyanate = volatile mustard oil 4. Amines e.g. Methylamine (dead fish) 5. Aldehydes e.g. Acetaldehyde (ripe fruits) benzaldehyde (bitter almond) 6. Esters & Lactones (cyclic esters) e.g. Allyl amyl glycolate (pineapple) 1. We smell only short molecules, large ones are no longer volatile and hence not odorous. 2. If molecule is very short, short is also its endurance, it will be a top note like e.g. dimethyl sulfide CSC – the transient smell of truffles 3. If a molecules carry a large net charges they will stick to each other and form hydrogen bonds. This prevents volatility. 4. Most olfactory molecules are made of C, H, O, N, S Perfumes – art, witchcraft or science? Perfumes are mixtures of raw materials: fragrant essential oils and other odorants, musk, fixatives, chemicals + solvents to give the human body, food, detergent, soap, juice, books etc pleasant smells. Why perfumes? Extracts from plants do not really smell like the real flowers but like a weak fake which might resemble but never match nature & original. The perfume maker therefore combines various raw materials to get something that resembles real flowers , or may even create some desirable fantasy smell The first perfume that used pure chemicals was in 1881Fougere Royal or Royal Fern by Parquet: it used lots of coumarin. Coumarin was used before but it was extracted from woodruff, vanilla leaf, & Tonka beans ($ 450/ kg), but not the pure, cheap chemical ($ 10/kg).

  • Perfume - the Science of Smell by Cindy Grigg
    Perfume - The Science of Smell By Cindy Grigg 1 Caption: This limestone carving found in an Egyptian tomb shows the making of lily perfume in the 4th century B.C. 2 A perfume is any substance that is used as a pleasant fragrance. Many cosmetics contain perfumes. Low priced perfumes called odorants are added to many products including paper, plastics, and rubber products. These help to hide unpleasant odors or to make the products more attractive to customers. Plastic trash bags, for example, may have odorants added to them to hide trash odors. 3 Perfumes are solutions. A solution is a mixture that appears to be a single substance, but it is made up of particles of two or more substances evenly distributed among each other. 4 Solutions are often described as homogeneous mixtures because they have the same appearance and properties throughout the mixture. A solution is made up of a solute dissolved in a solvent. The solute is the substance that is dissolved, and the solvent is the substance in which the solute is dissolved. 5 A solute is soluble, or able to dissolve, in the solvent. Solutions do not settle, cannot be filtered, and do not scatter light. Concentration is a measure of the amount of solute dissolved in a solvent. As the concentration of perfume oils increases, so does the intensity of the scent created. The scent will last longer, too. 6 Making perfume is an ancient art. It was practiced by the ancient Egyptians who rubbed their bodies with a substance made by soaking fragrant woods and resins in water and oil.

  • Conservation Treaty of Perfumes Entrusted to the Osmothèque
    CONSERVATION AGREEMENT OF PERFUMES ENTRUSTED TO THE OSMOTHÈQUE I. THE PERFUME COLLECTION IN THE OSMOTHÈQUE VAULT The Osmothèque vault is a locked room, sheltered from daylight, containing “wine refrigerators” and a laboratory bench. These “wine refrigerators” are maintained at 12°C, insuring a “stable” interior temperature sheltered from any variations in the external temperature. The Osmothèque vault contains more than 3 000 perfumes, 400 of which have disappeared from the market (updated January 2013). These discontinued perfumes consist, for the most part, of old perfumes of immense celebrity, no longer available on the market. Their original formulae, entrusted to the Osmothèque, have allowed for their faithful reproduction, often that of veritable masterpieces. Only several members of the Osmothèque’s team (the perfumer-osmocurators, the project manager and the two apprentices) may access the vault, containing as it does products both fragile and precious. Nothing may leave the site without the permission of the President, excluding the supply of perfumes required for the Osmothèque conferences.

It has since become the one-of-a- kind olfactory archives that to this day remains unique in the world. The idea of a “Maison des Parfums” (Home of Perfumes) was under evaluation by the technical commission of the Société Française des Parfumeurs for years. The aim was to create a place where professionals and fragrance lovers could rediscover the perfumes they had once known and loved. In addition, the institution was to devote itself to scents long forgotten, to become the only place where lost or discontinued fragrances could be reproduced, classified and archived. In order to realize such an ambitious project, several passionate perfumers, members of the commission, had to show a great deal of commitment and determination. Together they set to revive lost perfumes, creating their records and thus protecting the heritage of the fragrance industry. Those pioneers collected some 400 fragrances, of which 70 were already at the time discontinued. Two institutions have been enthusiastically and determinedly supporting the project: the Comité Français du Parfum (CFP) and the Chambre de Commerce et d’Industrie de Versailles Val d’Oise-Yvelines (CCIV).

  • THE EXTRACTION of ESSENTIAL OIL from RED PEPPER (Capsicum Annum); FORMULATION and PRODUCTION of PERFUME from the EXTRACT
    International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research Volume 10, Issue 7, July-2019 2225 ISSN 2229-5518 THE EXTRACTION OF ESSENTIAL OIL FROM RED PEPPER (Capsicum annum); FORMULATION AND PRODUCTION OF PERFUME FROM THE EXTRACT Tolulope, F.A. Olubanwo, Moses O. Ekeoma, Blessing Onuora, Stephena E. Tolubanwo. CHAPTER 1 1. 1 INTRODUCTION The word perfume is used today to describe scented mixtures and is derived from the Latin word, "per fumus," meaning through smoke, is fragrant liquid that is sprayed or rubbed on the skin or clothes to give a pleasant smell. Extraction of perfume from various plants resources is of ancient origin. In fact the natives from different tropical regions of the globe have long been extracting oil from numerous oil bearing plants. IJSERHuman beings since the ancient time have known how to extract oil from their natural resources. Vegetable oils are naturally occurring esters of higher fatty acids and glycerol. They are swidely di tributed in nature and were first consumed as food. Later oils were discovered to be used as renewable raw materials for variety of non-food production, for instance perfumes, disinfectants, inks to mention but a few. 1.2 Background of the Study Egyptians were responsible for the origin of perfume. They utilized scents in everything from religious ceremonies to burial preparations and even daily wear. The rich elites of Egyptian society, male and female alike would adorn themselves with aromas like lily to denote their status. The Persians took over the use of perfume as a sign of political status, but it wasn't until the Greeks and Romans became acquainted IJSER © 2019 http://www.ijser.org International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research Volume 10, Issue 7, July-2019 2226 ISSN 2229-5518 with it that it began to be viewed as a form of art and produced in large quantity and in consistent quality.

  • Evolution from Aromatherapy to Natural Perfumery – Anya Mccoy 2004 2 the Complexities of Blending the Raw Materials
    Natural Perfumery - A Fragrant Evolution For Aromatherapy by Anya McCoy printable version http://perfumeclasses.com Update: The author of this article, Anya McCoy, has begun teaching an online course in natural perfumery that is found here. Introduction The term “Natural Perfume” was relatively obscure more than five years ago. Many people, myself included, say we have been natural perfumers for years. But really, we were mostly amateurs, happily mixing simple blends, often cribbed from aromatherapy books, with our own preferences dropped in. Then there was a change in consciousness, and many decided that they really wanted to learn how to blend, and they wanted to define themselves as separate from mainstream perfumery, the stuff of department store choking clouds and allergic reactions. So, the term Natural Perfumery, like a synchronistic “click” in many scent-lovers heads, became the way in which we define what we do. I launched a natural perfume line in South Florida in 1991, the first in the USA. In the 1800’s, before the discovery of synthetics that would change perfumery forever, natural perfumery did exist; it just wasn’t called that. The perfumers were just perfumers. The 20th Century saw the growth of Mainstream Perfumery and the increasing use of synthetic chemicals replacing the natural aromatics. Now, in the 21st Century, Natural Perfumery is the logical next step along the fragrant path for many aromatherapists. It is the road back through history that we are now finding, and it is wonderful. Aromatherapists are already used to blending several essential oils to evoke a mood, or bring about a desired physical change, and so this new trend, the natural progression of blending perfumes came into being.
