Demonstration Formulas
While many of the demo formulas are original, we have also included many famous historic and modern fragrances. We create our "smells-like" demonstration formulas from industry knowledge in combination with extensive GCMS analyses of actual fragrances (including many which are decades old to get as close to the originals as possible). If you wish to have us compound these demonstration formulas in bulk we can do so in any quantity, just contact us for pricing.
This list is ordered by publication date of the demonstration formula starting with the most recent first.
