PERFUME BOTTLES AND BOTTLE cool

 Perfume or fragrance is a blend of essential oils and aroma compounds, fixatives, and solvents used to give fragrance to the human body, objects, or room. The amount and type of solvent is mixed with the perfume determine whether a perfume is considered a perfume extract, Eau de parfum, Eau de toilette, or Eau de Cologne.

History of Perfume
Perfume has been known since thousands of years ago - the word "perfume" comes from the Latin per fume meaning "through smoke". One of the oldest perfume uses a form of burning incense and aromatic herbs used in religious services, often the aromatic gums, frankincense and myrrh, gathered from trees. Egypt was the first to incorporate perfume into their culture followed by the ancient Chinese, Hindus, Israelites, Carthaginians, Arabs, Greeks, and Romans. The earliest use of perfume bottles is in Egypt around 1000 BC. Egypt found the glass and perfume bottles were one of the first common use for glass.

Concentrated levels of
perfume oils should be diluted with a solvent because essential oils / pure (either natural or synthetic) contain high concentrations of volatile components that will likely result in allergic reactions and possibly injury when applied directly to the skin or clothing. Solvents also vaporize essential oils, helping them spread into the air.

By far the most common solvent for perfume oil dilution is ethanol or a mixture of ethanol and water. Perfume oils can also be diluted by neutralizing the smell of grease using jojoba, fractionated coconut oil or wax. The percentage volume of perfume oil concentrates in the following:
Extract perfume: 20% - 40% aromatic compounds
Eau de Parfum (EDP): 10-30% aromatic compounds
Eau de Toilette (EDT): 5-20% aromatic compounds
Eau de Cologne ( EDC): 2-5% aromatic compounds, brand (reg.Trademark): Original Eau de Cologne
Eau de Solid (EDS): - 1% aromatics, brand (reg.Trademark): EDS

After-shave
The higher the percentage of aromatic compounds, the intensity and long-lasting scent created. Different perfumeries assign different amounts of oils to each of their perfumes. Therefore, although the oil concentration in the dilution perfume Eau De Parfum (EDP) will always be higher than the same perfume in eau de toilette form (EDT) in the same range, the actual amounts can vary between each perfumeries. A perfume EDT from a perfumeries may be stronger than an EDP from another perfumeries.

The attraction was not only perfume but also the fragrance / perfume containers (perfume bottles) also have a plus in the eyes of buyers. That's why it is not uncommon for a particular perfume perfume manufacturer perfume bottle design really. These images and photos unique perfume bottles.
