Effect of Different Extraction Methods on Yield and Quality of Essential Oil from Four Rosa Species
Floriculture and Ornamental Biotechnology ©2007 Global Science Books Effect of Different Extraction Methods on Yield and Quality of Essential Oil from Four Rosa Species Adnan Younis1* • Muhammad Aslam Khan1 • Asif Ali Khan2 • Atif Riaz1 • M. Aslam Pervez1 1 Institute of Horticultural Sciences, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad, Pakistan 2 Department of Plant Breeding and Genetics, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad, Pakistan Corresponding author : * [email protected] ABSTRACT In the present study rose oil was extracted from the petals of four Rosa species i.e. R. damascena, R. centifolia, R. borboniana and Rosa 'Gruss an Teplitz' through solvent extraction through hexane, solvent extraction through ether and steam distillation. R. damascena yielded (0.145%) of absolute oil, R. centifolia yielded 0.11% whereas R. 'Gruss an Teplitz' yielded the least (0.035%) absolute oil. Solvent extraction through hexane yielded more absolute oil (0.11%) than steam distillation (0.075%) and solvent extraction (0.07%) through ether on petal weight basis. Gas-chromatography of the rose oil was carried out for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of the oil constituents. Major compounds identified were citronellol, methyl eugenol, geraniol, geranyl acetate, phenyl ethyl alcohol, linalool, benzaldehyde, benzyl alcohol, rhodinyl acetate, citronellyl acetate, benzyl acetate and phenyl ethyl formate. Both techniques (solvent extraction and steam distillation) yielded oil with differences in the percentage composition of each component, but solvent extraction through hexane proved better (i.e. higher yield and more components) than steam distillation for extraction of essential oil from roses. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Keywords: citronellol, essential oil composition, Rosa centifolia, solvent extraction, steam distillation INTRODUCTION essential oil, which is slowly liberated from the plant material (Durst and Gokel 1987; Wilson 1995). -
Male Fragrances That Evoke a Feral Growl, Full-Blown Tempests Or The
A WHIFF OF DANGER Male fragrances that evoke a feral growl, full-blown tempests or the swaggering brio of ancient Rome are a bullseye for those who embrace their masculinity, says Lucia van der Post. Photograph by Omer Knaz he first scent I ever truly fell in love with was Schiaparelli’s Shocking, made by the great Jean Carles, and I came across it because my father wore it. I still remember the shock of pleasure when that first light floral note hit me, then the sense of surprise as the herbs, sandalwood and honey began to emerge, and finally it became sexier and more earthy as the oakmoss and what I now know Tto be civet took over. I remember, too, old-fashioned child that I was, that I thought it strange that my markedly heterosexual father wore a scent that seemed so voluptuous and so clearly aimed at women. Today, nobody would think anything of it. Speak to connoisseurs of perfume and as one they reject the notion of male and female scents. As Roja Dove, éminence grise of the perfume world, puts it: “For years floral notes were associated with feminine perfumes and – since men were considered strutting, predatory things – woody, mossy, earthy materials were linked with masculine ones, but the boundaries nowadays have become much more blurred. A rose, after all, has neither a penis nor a vagina – a rose on a man is a masculine rose, a rose on a woman is a feminine rose.” Violet, a note that one would have thought was largely feminine, was much beloved by Italian dandies in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and it was an overdose of violet that made Geoffrey Beene’s Grey Flannel (£45 for 60ml EDT, to which much-respected perfume scholar Luca Turin awards five stars, calling it “a masterpiece”) such a success when it was launched in Clockwise from far left: 1975. -

Fragrance Glossary 2015 Copyright 2015 Agilex Fragrances A Absolute Concentrated, highly aromatic oily mixtures extracted from plants. The method by which they are extracted affects the odor of the absolute. Accord A blend of materials targeting a specific odor or odor type that can be used as the basis of a fragrance or added to build complexity. Ambergris A biologic substance expelled from the digestive tract of the sperm whale. Upon aging on the open water, exposed to sun and salt, it develops a unique warm, balsamic odor. It is highly prized for this odor and its fixative properties, but is rarely used. Amber Amber, as it is used in perfumery, is not related to the fossilized resin of the same name. A perfumers Amber is an accord, usually based on labdanum, which imparts a warm, sensual, lightly sweet, balsamic odor. Animalic An odor group used to describe the sharp, tangy, sensual, and warm characteristics of the extracts made from certain animals: civet, beaver, musk deer and sperm whale. With the exception of the Sperm Whale, harvesting the materials results in the death of the animal. To ease consumer sensibilities a variety of similar synthetic chemicals have been developed. Aromatic Traditionally used to describe the very large group of plants and herbs used as flavorings in various cuisines. A few examples are: Basil, Anise, Sage, Dill, Lemongrass, Spearmint. B Balsam A resin or sap which forms on various trees and shrubs such as myrrh and evergreens. Balsamic odor classification is warm, rich, and slightly sweet. Base The foundation of a fragrance, the base delivers the undertones that modify and enhance the layers above it, and becomes more evident as the fragrance is worn. -

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The ‘discovery of the world’ has been a stereotypical focus of human geography. However, the research helped me to discover a new world for myself. The fragrance industry delineates a rich landscape of sensorial stimulations. I appreciated not only the experience of smelling perfumes in different environments and the ‘look behind the scenes’ but the diversity of approaches to perfumery in this artistic industry. Therefore, my first ‘thank you’ goes to the industry experts that spend their precious time with me and opened their doors for me in France, Germany, and the United States. Thank you very much for introducing me to a world that you experience, develop, and change every day. Second, a dissertation is a long journey. This one has seen different companions until it came into being. It developed quite a bit over time. My friends in the United States and in Germany contributed through their critique, mental support, active interest, questions, guidance, and feedback. Thus, the second ‘thank you’ goes to all companions. -

It is for this reason that Saskia Wilson-Brown, founder of the (http://artandolfaction.com/) Los Angeles-based Institute of Art & Olfaction (http://artandolfaction.com/) , and Awards (http://www.artandolfactionawards.org/2017awards/) of the same name, decided that the fourth award ceremony will be held this year in this city. Because an event that declares itself international and which wishes to bring together the authors of artistic perfumery from all over the world could not really be conned to the west coast of the United States and we were the rst to be delighted to be able to attend rst time. Thursday 4 May Our ight Paris Orly-Berlin Schönefeld is already olfactory, invaded by the body uids swollen with hormones of a class of high school students as excited and noisy as it is sparkling. On the Alexander Platz U-Bahn quay, it is a currywurst aroma that welcomes us, and reminds us that in Berlin one can calm its hunger at any time, anywhere. On arrival in Mitte, the city is bathed by a cold, tight drizzle, which does not prevent us from going to dinner in a Vietnamese canteen of the district with the scents of phở, frankincense and urinal. -

Although Nicotiana species have been extensively investigated, relatively less research has focused on flowers, especially research related to obtaining aromatic products for cosmetic and perfumery use. On the other hand, there is evidence that Nicotiana flowers accumulate various secondary metabolites with a distinct aroma and biological activities, and the flowers represent a biomass available in sufficient quantities. Therefore, this study aimed to determinate the chemical composition (by GC-MS) and the olfactory profiles of a specific type of natural aromatic product (concrete), obtained from the flowers of four Nicotiana species, in a direct comparison between them. -

About SP PRIVATE PERFUME with MIGUEL MATOS @ the PERFUME GUIDE by Luca Turin and Tania Sanchez
About SP PRIVATE PERFUME WITH MIGUEL MATOS @ THE PERFUME GUIDE by Luca Turin and Tania Sanchez. As owner of the brand SP PARFUMS and perfumer for SP PRIVATE PERFUME WITH MIGUEL MATOS I am disappointed with the "Art of judging" regarding "The Perfume Guide 2018" by Luca Turin and Tania Sanchez. It's a fact, that objective parameter should be the basement for any kind of criticism. Sadly I can't find this in the reviews and ratings for SP PRIVATE PERFUME WITH MIGUEL MATOS. The words the authors used are full of personal aggression and sarcasm against Miguel Matos. I miss any kind of respect !I don't know the reason for that 'personal hate' against Miguel. Miguel and me did these perfumes to honour his Portuguese roots. And, respectfully, I don't want to have perfumes I have created as tools ( or weapons) for a personal revenge ( or fight) ! At last the authors of the book gave SUNTANGLAM, LISBON BLUES and FUNFAIR bashing 1 star ratings. Just to give you an impression, the community at FRAGRANTICA voted : SUNTANGLAM 4,05 (from 5) with 25 votes LISBON BLUES 3,08 (from 5) with 12 votes FUNFAIR. 3,13 (from 5) with 16 votes. In their reviews the authors of the book gave no information regarding the background of the perfumes or a serious description of their character and structure to explain their ratings. In May 2016 Luca Turin published a positive review of the ESSENTIAL COLLECTION / SP PARFUMS in his perfumeblog 'perfumesilove'. But in the 2018 Guide sadly no other perfume by SP PARFUMS was reviewed. -
