Art of Perfumery: How to Make Perfumes, Scents and Fragrances

Art of Perfumery - Make your own perfumes from natural products. Perfumes are mixtures of fragrant essential oils or aroma compounds, fixatives, and solvents used to give a pleasant scent to people or places. Many of the compounds that make up a perfume can be manufactured or extracted from plant or animal sources. Perfumes have been known to exist in some of the earliest human civilizations, either through ancient texts or from archaeological digs. Modern perfumery began in the late 19th century with the commercial synthesis of aroma compounds such as vanillin or coumarin, which allowed for the composition of perfumes with smells previously unattainable solely from natural aromatics alone. This publication will give you the knowledge to create perfumes, scents and fragrances from natural and some synthetic sources. The techniques are based on classical recipes and includes perfumes, fragrances, scents, soaps, pomades and oils, creams, emulsions, milks, bouquets and nosegays as well as other traditional products.
