THE CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS - IFEAT

FRAGRANCE CREATIONThis was a short presentation by John Ayres with a focus on the part ‘accords’ play in the fragrancecreation process. This was the curtain raiser to the afternoon practical session where participantscreated their own muguet accord and the group evaluated the results. The classic muguet accord startedwith perfumers noting that:Rose + Jasmine = Lily of the valley (muguet)The participants had a larger palette of materials to create their own accord and some ‘modifiers’ toput their own distinctive stamp on their creation.Figure 9 Participants’ compounding workstations for accord creationACKNOWLEDGEMENTThe ICATS Team gratefully acknowledges the support of Takasago (Singapore) for the provision ofsamples and equipment for the practical work in the ‘Intermediate Perfumery’ workshop.321
