Allured Books

This comprehensive reference discusses several hundred compounds comprising most of the materials used in the perfumery and flavoring industry. Includes:

• The history of the principal perfumery synthetics (naturally occurring, derived from natural sources, or entirely laboratory produced)
• Chemistry
• Application
• Physical and chemical properties
• Manufacture
• Uses

It is hoped that this book will be useful to chemists engaged in the field of essential oils, perfumes, flavors, soaps and cosmetics. Chemists in other fields may also find it of interest since many unusual reactions, seldom used in other organic chemical industries, are employed in the synthesis of a number of perfumery materials.
