The formulas presented here are educational examples of modern fragrance accords. They were created by the perfumers at Givaudan (www.givaudan.com) as educational exercises that just happen to be very beautiful. You need not have every component to create these, and you can always make substitutions. This is a great way to learn what these chems can do!

These measurements are in grams and would make 1000 grams of concentrate.

You can also do this by drops as a learning exercise.
