Designer Fragrance Oils
“If you like Chanel No. 19, you’ll love Christy No. 4.”
You’ve probably heard or seen a message like this at some
time during your life. Many companies sell imitation
versions of famous perfumes. And they sell their imitations
at a price much lower than the original. How is this done?
Using a technique called chromatography, scientists can
separate a perfume into its individual chemical components.
By doing this they can reconstruct the perfume using aroma
chemicals. By applying this process towards famous
perfumes, scientists have developed designer fragrance
oils.
Designer fragrance oils are great for the home crafter and
small business person. They allow you to copy expensive
perfumes at a fraction of the cost of the original.
However, it is important to note that designer fragrance
oils may not duplicate a fragrance exactly. This is because
some perfume ingredients, most notably the expensive
absolutes such as rose absolute and jasmine absolute, are
very expensive and no synthetic substitute can completely
duplicate their aroma. In creating a designer fragrance
oil, a manufacturer may decide to use a cheaper substitute
for the expensive components of a fragrance. If a synthetic
substitute for an important ingredient (like jasmine
absolute) is used in the replica, or if an important
ingredient is omitted from the replica, it will make a
difference in the fragrance. They best way to purchase your
designer fragrance oils is to order small amounts from
different sellers. Test them out for their fragrance, and
for their compatibility with your products, and when you
find the ones you like, purchase larger quantities as you
need them.
