PERFUME - FACTS TO PONDER
The history of perfume oils can be traced back to ancient Egypt centuries ago while in the eighteenth century, the Grasse region of France uses aromatic plants in the making of fragrance and spiced perfume.
Today France is also well known for their perfumes industry (other then fashion), making it the perfume center of the world and it is marketed all over the globe.
People use to think that perfumes are made mainly of concentrated oil and alcohol solution; but as more people finds out about perfume oil, they are becoming more popular.
Facts about perfume oils:
1) Strength of smell - Perfume oils are highly concentrated. They are up to ten times more concentrated than you normal perfumes. This is what makes perfume oil to last longer than perfumes.
2) Body chemistry - Perfumes have alcohol which creates different smell effects. Perfume oils use carrier oils such as jojoba or grape seed oil in place of alcohol.
Though perfume may smells good on you, but that doesn't mean that the oil version will. Bear in mind that perfumes have only a small percentage of oil, whereas perfume oil in nature is more pure and concentrated.
The effect between the fragrance and your body may produce a different scent altogether. Moreover some fragrances will change smell as the alcohol evaporates in a long time where as for oils, the scent is more constant.
3) Price – Some perfumes are more expensive and have greater profit margins due to its popularity. Celebrities’ endorsement and creating their own lines of perfumes and colognes have also contributes to this.
Whereas perfume oils are sold very cheaply, but slowly the market trends are changing due to the current global economic and financial situation. We can see many entrepreneurs are coming up with their own line of perfume oils and creating wealth with it.
4) Packaging - Department store perfumes are nicely packaged making it a great gift and souvenir for friends and family. Again this is due to the celebrities’ endorsement playing a big role in marketing.
As for perfume oils some are sold in less attractive containers without any endorsement, which also contribute for their lower price.
5) Versatility - Perfumes are intended for use on the body to hide or cover body odors making the wearer more presentable. Unlike perfumes, perfume oils can be used to create all sorts of scented products, such as soap, aroma therapy candles, bath oils, air fresheners and many more to name few.
