Fragrance Chemistry Š Milestones and Perspectives FLAVOURS AND FRAGRANCES 379 CHIMIA 2001,55, No, 5 Chimia 55 (2001) 379-387 © Schweizerische Chemische Gesellschaft ISSN 0009-4293 Fragrance Chemistry - Milestones and Perspectives Markus Gautschi*, Jerzy A. Bajgrowicz, and Philip Kraft Abstract: This mini-review on Fragrance Chemistry focuses on milestones in the timelines of musk, ionone/ woody and sandalwood odorants, as well as on new perspectives arising from the development of fragrance precursors. After a brief introduction of the history of perfumery, its mutual interaction with the chemistry of odorants, and the current state of the fragrance industry, the whole spectrum of musk odorants is discussed from the accidental discovery of nitro musks like Musk Ketone® via the parallel evolution of benzenoid and macrocyclic musks, to new structures like Cyclomusk® and Moxalone®. Following a description of the structure elucidation of violet odorants, ionone and irone,lso ESuper®and the structurally related Georgywood®, but also Koavone® and Timberol® are treated. Weissenborn's discovery of terpenylcyclohexanols lead to sandalwood synthetics that today are mainly derivatives of campholenic aldehyde like Sandalore®, Sandal Mysore Core®, Polysantol®, Ebanol®, and Javanol®. Finally, lipase labile precursor systems, for instance digeranyl succinate, or UV-radiation labile ones like citronellyl coumarate and citronellyl cyclohexylglyoxylate are presented, and views on 'secondary benefits', 'anti-perfumes' and exclusive 'Editions de Parfums' conclude this overview on the driving forces and the serendipities in the chemistry of fragrant substances.

Chypre powder, which has given its name to the Chypre family in perfumery, is made mostly from the moss that lives as a parasite on oak trees. Oak moss is always mixed with bits of bark torn off when moss is harvested, so its smell mingles with the scent of the tannin, a fragrant green component of the oak wood. Long ago fashionable people used Chypre powder to powder their skin or their wig. It was also used in making potpourri, “sachets” and baskets of fragrances.

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.

  • Letter NATURALS + BEST of the BLOGGERS + LATEST LAUNCHES
    THE www.perfumesociety.org NO. 32 - HIGH SUMMER 2018 scentedTHE NEW letter NATURALS + BEST OF THE BLOGGERS + LATEST LAUNCHES Flower power! editor’s LEttER It has been the greatest summer for flowers and gardens that I can ever remember. I’ll be hanging onto the precious memories of rambling roses, scrambling jasmine and aromatic lavender, as autumn arrives. And since fragrance offers us a way of wallowing in the beauty of flowers, 365 days a year, we thought we’d devote this entire issue to flowers – and their infinite power to delight us. A key trend we’re seeing at The Perfume Society is the revival in floral fragrances for men. And why not? Put jasmine or rose or violet on a man’s skin, and we find it’s expressed in a quite different way to a woman’s. Of course, once upon a time, florals were widely-worn among men – back in the days before marketing came into play and fragrances acquired ‘gender’. It probably isn’t coincidence that as that becomes blurred again in the wider world (and about time, too), men’s florals are being worn loudly and proudly. So we asked Darren Scott to hand-pick the best men’s florals – and on p.22, he shares a positive bouquet of them. One perfumery house known for capturing the magic of flowers is LMR Naturals. Who?, I hear you chorus. Well, you may not know LMR’s name – but you’ll no doubt be familiar with dozens of fragrances which include the petalicious notes they extract (via various clever techniques) from nature’s floral bounty.

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...

Jacques Guerlain celebrates this fleeting moment with an armful of suave and delicate flowers enveloped in a breath of powder taking wing toward oriental notes. His Perfumers / Noses fragrance, L'Heure Bleue, is an exquisite ode to the enjoyment of life and romanticism. It superbly expresses the moment when Jacques Guerlain 'the night has not yet found its star'. The top notes of the fragrance intoxicate you with the audacity of an aniseed note and the freshness of bergamot. The heart's carnation and neroli accord express delicate sensuality. The powdery, oriental dry- endearing down troubles us with its powdery notes of iris and violet and its floral Oriental gourmand notes of vanilla, benzoin and tonka bean.

  • Of Natural Raw Materials of Plant Origin
    Natural raw materials Introduction English Classifications of natural raw materials of plant origin Clove tree Fennel Coriander Parsley Sandalwood Nutmeg Lemon tree Perfume manufacturers classify natural raw materials of plant origin according to their own specific system. The International Perfume Museum has chosen the classification system used by perfume designer Jean-Claude Ellena, creative director at Hermès perfumes. But there are others. Used as working tool by the perfumer and perfume technicians for designing a new composition, each system is based on a choice of raw materials that reflects different eras and graphic fashions. Classification of smells from a botanical viewpoint by families Certain authors have attempted to classify smells by botanical families, but this is a utopian undertaking. If we examine the cruciferae family, which is by far the most homogeneous because of its typical sulphured essential oils, we nevertheless find exceptions. Clove tree flowers, for example, have a pleasant rose-caryophyllene aroma that is nothing like the sulphurous aroma of the other cruciferae. Furthermore, simple botanical varieties, such as lilum, nymphea, citrus and cinnamorum, can have scents that are totally different. It would thus seem more logical to indicate only the customary botanical order and the families that supply aromatic plants, as Engler, Gildemeister and F. Hoffmann (1) have done. In Engler’s classification, which is not reproduced here, each aromatic plant is defined by: Branch Celery Rockrose Class Order Family Type Species. Natural raw materials Introduction English Practical classification of smells Another Classification by Smell by tonality or near tonality In spite of the widespread use of perfumes among the ancient I.
