“I was most interested in how useful this resource might be for me if I were looking to source a particular aromatic or perfume ingredient. There is a short introductory section that explains what all the abbreviations and designations are. In some cases, a person must be familiar already with much of the background information such as what is an oleoresin or absolute, what does GRAS mean, etc. The materials are in alphabetical order and quite easy to find and are listed with suppliers. There is also a code for the category of material including natural, nature-identical and artificial flavorings. Natural is derived only from plant or animal sources by physical processes either as they naturally occur or as they are traditionally processed, which is a very important designation in natural perfumery. There is also an indication if the product listed is organic. This would be quite helpful for me to have on my shelf as I pursue new ingredients or new sources of ingredients I already use.”
