Odor tenacity of perfumery materials

When perfumers try to compound fragrances, they must pay attention to the nature of the chemicals used in order to create well harmonized fragrances. It will he easier to create fragrances if the constituents of the essential oils going into them, and their chemical and physical natures, are known. In order to create well balanced perfumes one must know not only the odors of the ingredients but also their odor tenacities. Trained perfumers understand these phenomena from experience, but this kind of experimental data may be helpful to young perfumers.
