Abstract :
With the increased manufacture of perfume, the demand for essential oils will rise by up to 8- 10%. This demonstrates that there is a growing public demand for the scent. This experimental study strategy tries to identify a symptom or effect that occurs as a result of particular treatments in order to create high-quality eau de toilette-type formulae and fragrances that respondents enjoy. The organoleptic test, specific gravity test, fragrance resistance test, spread ability test, sensitivity test, physical stability test, pH test, and hedonic test were all used in the evaluation. The results showed that the solid perfume had a smooth texture, an attractive appearance, and a melting point suitable for use in various climates. The fragrance intensity of the essential oil was found to be preserved in the solid perfume, and the longevity was comparable to that of other solid perfumes on the market. The essential oil also exhibited potential antimicrobial and antioxidant properties, which could provide additional benefits to the user.
