Aroma Chemicals
THESE ARE THE BASIC AROMA ELEMENTS AND ONE OF THE THREE AROMA ADDITIVES FOR PERFUME

Aroma Chemicals, what are they and why use them.
Aroma chemicals are manufactured smells. They are
the bits and pieces of fragrance that make up unique perfumes. Some are wonderful in their raw state while others are stinky, but when used in small quantities, they lend certain aroma qualities. Some unpleasant smelling aroma chemicals may be necessary to achieve a full bodied and elegant perfume.
Animal smells like civet and musk are synthesized to prevent cruelty to animals. Some aroma chemicals have little or no smell until they are blended with others. The use of synthetics helps keep trees, vegetation, and precious flowers from being depleted. All designer perfumes you buy in department stores are made from aroma chemicals. Although the idea of an "all natural" perfume seems great, in truth, it is extremely difficult to achieve the same sort of fresh, clean, floral appeal that comes from synthetic materials by using only essential oils. Some essential oils have a degree of harsh medicinal smell that may be unwanted in your perfume. I am not saying there’s not a place for essential oils in your perfumes because they do add natural body. Many men’s perfumes depend heavily upon essential oils.
If you have ever wondered what fragrance oils are made of, they are combinations of aroma chemicals usually in a DPG (Dipropylene Glycol) base. In perfumes, aroma chemicals may be in a base of alcohol, oil or DPG. A great many aroma chemicals are synthesized from natural sources. Many aroma chemicals are also used in food preparation as flavors, especially candy and soft drinks, and also cheese and meat products. We also offer some aroma chemicals in full strength. These aroma chemicals MUST be used within their percentage guidelines. Many of these aroma chemicals can cause adverse reactions if the guideline percentages are not adhered to. In other words if it says use in trace only this means in tiny, tiny amounts. 1% is 1% of the total perfume formula concentration. So when you make perfume with these un-cut concentrations your alcohol and perfume base or jojoba oil is not counted as part of the fragrance concentration.
These full strength chemicals should be handled with care. Keep all perfume ingredients away from children. We do make adjustments to some of these chemicals to make them pour-able. Some come in powders and crystals and some are solids. Some are heavy and thick and we must slightly dilute them to pour them.
Our aroma chemicals are the same raw aroma materials used in all of the fine perfume houses all over the world. The biggest difference is our raw materials are ready for use. We have prepared our aroma chemicals to the proper dilution. The top perfuming schools in the world use raw materials and essential oils at a 1 to 10% solution. The use of these materials allows the perfumer to create a unique perfume. These are the basic note additives that give your perfume its truly unique individuality.
