A good fragrance can influence mood, behaviour, perception, emotions, and human thoughts. Perfumes represent a person's style, individuality, and personality, and a good scent can impact mood, behaviour, perception, emotions, and human thoughts. Perfume production has evolved into a mainstream business in the personal care and cosmetics market today.
The global perfume market is gaining traction owing to the rising trend of personal grooming along with the increasing demand for youth-oriented as well as exotic fragrances. Moreover, the product diversification by manufacturers is attracting a larger consumer-base.

Other major factors propelling the demand for perfumes worldwide are rapid urbanisation, increasing population and aggressive advertising by the manufacturers.
Perfumes are defined as a mixture of essential oils and/or aroma compounds along with alcohol and/or water. The word ‘perfume’ is derived from Latin words ‘per’ and ‘fumum’, which means ‘through smoke’.
