DID YOU KNOW?
(Perfume Edition)

A perfume is any substance that is used as a pleasant fragrance. It can be contained in many things such as make-up.




The low priced perfumes are called odorants. Odorants are added to products such as paper, plastics and rubber products to help hide unpleasant odors. This is also a way to entice customers to the product.

Perfumes are solutions. A solution is a mixture that appears to be a single substance, but it is made up of particles of two or more substances evenly distributed among each other.

A solution is made up of a solute dissolved in a solvent. The solute is the substance that is dissolved, and the solvent is the substance in which the solute is dissolved.

Concentration is a measure of the amount of solute dissolved in a solvent. As the concentration of perfume oils increases, so does the intensity of the scent created. The scent will last longer, too.
