Of course the art of creating a fine fragrance in this industry is a very carefully guarded craft. In order to learn how to assemble a formula takes a very good memory, talent and years of hard work. In fact the three leaders in the industry including Givaudan, IFF and Symrise have their own schools where a student apprentices under a master perfumer. A fine fragrance is nothing more then an assemblage of pleasing materials that together works harmoniously in a blend. I decided to add my arrangements in order to display the art as simple as it is complex. If one works a composition as a percentage of various materials a fine fragrance formula can be deciphered. Unfortunately one will very rarely find any compositions on the world wide web. Part of this is due to the para- noia within the industry. A material understanding will allow you to decipher the complexity of just about any fragrance excluding Estee Lauder's Beautiful. Creating a formula with fifteen or more pages just over compli- cates the art, and of course the fragrance. I decided to add my personal classification of aroma chemicals through the book to help explain the simplicity of a creation and each fragrance family's uniqueness. Any given material can play an important role, or a subordinate one. Again, that is the nature of the creative art. Personally I believe a fine fragrance can be assembled utilizing a page and a half of various materials. What works together in a blend depends on skill and in part luck by the artist. Most fragrance houses in the states utilize test panels. Trying to get a scent created with endless critics further degrades the fine art. Asking some- one a pointed question the answer can be what you want to hear, but not necessarily the truth. Fragrance launches today are to many often tied to stars and gimmicks. Chandler Burr in his recent book show casing the industry states the business needs to get back to its roots. I think he is one hundred percent correct in his assessment. The miss truths put out by the marketing, public relations and ad advertising folks ads to the declining sales and many failures. Whether any particular fragrance in my book works is unknown. However, I do know one will not find a finer collection of fragrance compositions anywhere on the internet. The craft and its art are that highly prized. If one finds a book the formulas are either old, useless or misleading further obfuscating the art. Enjoy presentation into the creative art. Fragrance Books Inc @www.perfumerbook.com Glen O.

Brechbill 6 Fragrance Families LASSIFICATION IS VARIED, and their are new sub-divisions constantly being added. Keep in mind the sub- Cgroups are part of the below families. Tastes and popularity of any particular group can vary from coun- try to country. With the launch of more, and more fine fragrances the market is getting increasingly over satu- rated. Employed today one will find a lot of marketing hype. This includes of course the use of movie stars, personalities, custom bottles, and fancy packaging. Fine fragrances can be categorized in several different aroma groupings. All scents no matter how unique and distinct fall into fragrance families that include Floral, Chypre, Oriental, Lavender, Fougere and Citrus. They are further divided between women, and men. Listed below are the original families as outlined by Haarman & Reimer. Feminine Notes Floral Family: The largest family of fine fragrances is by far the florals. Floral notes can find their way into the heart of many fragrances. A floral fragrance can be classified as light, green, floral, and heavy. Scents in this family include violet, carnation, rose, gardenia, lily of the valley, tuberose and narcissus. A light fragrance is often described as springtime flowers like Lily of the Valley, Lilac and Freesia often with citrusy or fruity top notes. Green accords can also be based on Muguet, and other leafy stem like materials sometimes based on herba- ceous, earthy notes like Galbanum. Narcotic floral effects can be achieved by blending different floral materials with rose notes plus adding exotic Ylang-Ylang, Methyl Benzoate, and other diverse floral materials. They are often found in southern cli- mates than in more northerly regions, and are thus considered heavy. These include, first and foremost, Jasmin represented by Benzyl Acetate, Hedione to name a few of the fragrance ingredients that are available to a cre- ative artist. Other exotic types include Tuberose, Orange Blossom and Narcissus. Floral notes in this family can also be balsamic such as Hyacinth. Various violet compounds are a favorite addition to many compositions. The fragrances included in this group enjoy the greatest acceptance around the world. Many formulas display dis- tinctive accords that are reminiscent of their natural counter parts. It can be made up of a wide variety of flo- ral bouquets, or a certain note which predominates. The floral family has six main sub divisions as Floral, Fragrance Books Inc @www.perfumerbook.com 7 Arranging Fine Perfume Compositions Green, Fruity, Fresh, Aldehydic and Sweet. Floral Floral A floral fragrance owes its nature to flower blossoms that may differ from one another. Rose materials such as Citronellol, Geraniol, and Phenyl Ethyl Alcohol predominate. Again Jasmine in combination with rose ingredients are the central part of this theme. By adding carnation, ylang-ylang, tuberose, iris and others a pure- ly floral effect can be achieved. Today more synthetic ingredients including the use of artificial bases are uti- lized due to the high cost and unavailability of essential oils. For example, a fine fragrance such as Chanel # 5 created by Ernst Breaux in 1923 would smell entirely different today. Floral Green A floral green fragrance are natural in nature compounded by blending of herbs, ferns, mosses and citrus fruits. This group is characterized of typical botanical fragrance notes, like those of leaves, stalks or freshly mown grass as well as cucumber-violet-like green notes. Generally relying on parts of plants, and flowers such as Muguet, or Lily of the Valley. They can be delicate as Muguet or have a strong stem like note characteristic of Styrallyl Acetate or Cyclamen Aldehyde. Green is often used to describe lush forests, fallen leaves during the autumn, a woodland meadow, or grassland. They can be further subdivided under Fresh and Balsamic. Galbanum or Olibanum would be in the later family, or the can be a green accord such as Cassis. Floral Fruity A fragrance of a floral fruity type can be achieved by blending fruity elements of a single fruit or a com- bination of two or more of which one can dominate. Apple accords that include, peach, apricot, pineapple, cas- sis, prune, strawberry, and raspberry.

  • Representations of the Olfactory Concept in Advertising: a Case Study
    Argumentum. Journal of the Seminar of Discursive Logic, Argumentation Theory and Rhetoric 16 (1): 80-93, 2018 Brînduşa-Mariana AMALANCEI “Vasile Alecsandri” University of Bacău (Romania) Representations of the Olfactory Concept in Advertising: A Case Study Abstract: The analysis of a perfume advertising image can be done from multiple perspectives, the endeavors to provide possible reading paths and interpretations being among the most diverse in the literature. Whether it is to meet the consumers’ psychological desires, to relate to fashion trends, or to create a rare scent, perfume advertising is a real challenge, which often needs to be answered just by juxtaposing an image and the product name. Our paper highlights the way in which the correlation between the visual and olfactory forms of perfumes is attempted, through product name, vial, characters, context and text (Julien 1997). Because in many advertisements the perfume is replacing the character, we chose as a case study an advertising image that we consider illustrating in this respect, that of the new olfactory creation of Chanel, Gabrielle, which appeared in September 2017. We have to mention that the launch of this product has been marked by the appearance of homage articles in glossy magazines, which contributes, through the information provided, to a better understanding of the message the advertisement transmits. Keywords: image, visual identity, olfactory concept, olfactory memory, brand name, perfume name, perfume bottle, advertising context 1. Fragrances ‒ Vectors of Communication Considered a privileged way of communication, perfumes are an identity mark (Vettraino-Soulard 1992, 106). We can often hear in advertisements about perfumes for strong women, perfumes that suit active women, perfumes for romantic women, etc.

  • THE SECTRET of for the First Time, a Couturier Revolu- Cionizes the Insular World of Perfume by Creating in 1921 Her Own Fragrance, the First of Its Kind
    THE SECTRET OF For the first time, a couturier revolu- cionizes the insular world of perfume by creating in 1921 her own fragrance, the first of its kind. Coco Chanel seeks, in her own words, “ a woman’s perfume with a woman’s scent.” Her scent should be as important as her style of dress. Coco Chanel calls upon Ernest Beaux, perfumer to the Czars. In search of inspiration, Ernest Beaux ven- tures as far as the Arctic circle, finding his muse in the exhilarating air issuing from the northern lakes under the midnight sun. The couturier encourages him to be ever more audacious, demanding still more jasmine, the most precious of essences. He composes a bouquet of over 80 scents for her. An abstract, mysterious perfume radiaing an extravagance floral richness. For the first time, No5 transforms the alchemy of scent, through Ernest Beauxe’s innovtive use of al- dehydes, synthetic components which exalt perfumes, like lemon which accentuates the taste of strawberry. Aldehydes add layers of complexity, making No5 even more mysteri- ous and impsible to decipher. No5, a code, an identification number, makes the sentimental names for the perfumes of the day seem in- stantly out of date. It receives its name because Mademoiselle chanel prefers the fifth sample Ernes Beaux presents to her. For the first time, a perfume is presented in a simple laboratory flacon. From the United States to japan, the fragrance’s fame spreads, it soon becomes the best-selling perfume in the world. No5 pioneers a new form of advertising in the world of fragrance.

  • Parfum, Chimie Et Création Xavier Fernandez, Sylvain Antoniotti, Éric Bussotti Et Marie-Patricia Hurel
    Chimie et physico-chimie des matières premières Parfum, chimie et création Xavier Fernandez, Sylvain Antoniotti, Éric Bussotti et Marie-Patricia Hurel Résumé Le parfum est un produit fascinant dont la création associe l’art, des connaissances empiriques et la science. Sa formule est issue du mélange de plusieurs dizaines de composés odorants et extraits naturels (le concentré de parfum) dans de l’éthanol. L’examen de l’histoire du parfum à travers les siècles montre le rôle capital joué par la chimie. L’obtention de solvants organiques purs mais surtout la mise à disposition de composés odorants synthétiques ont complètement bouleversé la parfumerie pour conduire aux parfums modernes, compagnons quotidiens de notre vie. Mots-clés Parfum, odeur, formulation, accord, extraits naturels, synthèse organique. Abstract Perfume, chemistry and creation The perfume is a fascinating material whose creation is guided by art, empirical knowledge and science. Its formula arises from the mixture of dozens of odorant compounds and natural extracts in ethanol. An overview of the history of perfumes across the centuries shows the central role of chemistry. The manufacture of solvents of high purity and the chemical synthesis of key-odorants have dramatically influenced perfumery, leading to modern fragrances, daily companions of our lives. Keywords Perfume, fragrance, formulation, harmony, natural extracts, organic synthesis. e mot parfum tire son origine du latin per fumum d’un concentré de parfum ou jus (15 à 30 %) dans de l’alcool L signifiant « par la fumée », en référence à la première éthylique à 90°. Cependant pour le grand public, le terme méthode connue d’obtention de fragrances subtiles par parfum est plus ambigu puisqu’il fait référence à une odeur combustion de gommes ou de résines (myrrhe, encens) aussi bien qu’à divers produits (parfum, soie de parfum*, eau récoltées sur des arbres de la famille des burseracées [1].

  • Olfactory Workshops by Osmothèque
    Olfactory Workshops By Osmothèque Designed for fragrance industry professionals Fougère Royale (1884) HOUBIGANT, Le Fruit Défendu (1914) ROSINE, Chypre (1917) COTY, Crêpe de Chine (1925) MILLOT, Iris Gris (1947) FATH,… Osmothèque: the beginnings From the Greek osme - odor and thêkê - place, the Osmothèque was inaugurated over 20 years ago, in 1990. 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). Thanks to their financial support, the Osmothèque has grown over the years...

  • Russia by Way of Paris: Sulékó 03/04/14 17:44:54 (6 Comments) By: Sergey Borisov
    Russia by Way of Paris: Sulékó 03/04/14 17:44:54 (6 comments) by: Sergey Borisov It happened that after 1917, most of the perfumers who worked in Russia had emigrated from the Soviet Union. The most famous example is French perfumer Ernest Beaux (Rallet, Bourjois, Chanel), of whom we Russians are still so proud. After the nationalization of the perfume factories, Soviets continued to produce colognes and soaps—not as a luxury item (the proletariat does not need any luxury!), but as an element of hygiene and for proletarian holidays. For 70 years the development of Soviet perfumes has lagged behind that of the world. After Perestroika, Russiab perfume factories either switched to cheaper mass perfumes, or were bought by giants like Procter & Gamble or Unilever, for the manufacture of their products. Modern Russian perfumery consists of some self-taught natural perfumers (Anna Zworykina, Anna Gerasimova, Alla Guter, Natalie Svetlaya, Yan Frolov), or re-imported Russian brands from other countries, like Enchanted Forest by The Vagabond Prince. At the New York exhibition Elements Showcase, we found another great example of Russian perfumery—French perfume house Sulékó. Sulékó's art director, Anastasia Sokolow, kindly agreed to answer my questions in an e-mail interview. Anastasia Sokolova, founder of the house Sulékó Serguey Borisov: Dear Anastasia, Thank you for your time you will spend with Fragrantica readers. First of all, why did you choose perfumery to reveal your Russian roots and pay tribute to Russia? Seems like Russian literature and poetry, Russian ballet and art are more well-known for their quality in the world.
