International Perfume Standards Program

In summary, we determined that it was necessary to have a fresh fragrance oil quality control standard representative of the quality of oil available in any given overseas location. We recognize that ensuring worldwide quality required a central location to evaluate and approve the initial samples of oils before being purchased around the world. Once an initial quality was determined, it was necessary to assure that each location had access to a fresh quality control standard representing this quality. A procedure was then set up to assure annual replacement of quality control standards.

With the support of the Fragrance Research Fund, we are looking at the role that people’s choices of fragrances (that is, their perfumes, their colognes, their after-shaves) play in the fashioning of images.
