A cosmetic formulation chemist can help your brand create perfume, makeup, and other beauty products. At Freelance Formulations, our team of chemists uses your suggestions and preferences when crafting your ideal perfume. Here is more information about a chemist's role in perfume making:
Understanding the Science
Our team of cosmetic formulation chemist professionals have a thorough scientific understanding of aromatic compounds, both natural and synthetic. We understand how each compound interacts with others to produce specific scents. These compounds can come from natural sources like flowers, fruits, spices, and more. We can combine natural and synthetic scents to create your unique fragrance. Another part of the science behind perfume making includes choosing the fragrance's "notes." Perfumes often have top, middle, and base notes. Top notes are what is smelled first, middle notes may linger on the skin longer, and base notes are the scents that last for several hours. As chemists, we understand which fragrances last the longest and how to blend various intensities of scents to help you create a fragrance with depth.
Recognizing Safety
At Freelance Formulations, our cosmetic chemists understand that creating and wearing perfumes can raise specific health concerns for people with allergies or sensitivities. You can share with your chemist certain ingredients you prefer to leave out of the formula. You can avoid adding potentially harmful ingredients by working with a cosmetic chemist who understands the chemical compounds of each ingredient. We can help you determine which ingredients are organic, vegan, or FDA-approved.
Making Perfume
Chemists can begin making your perfume once they understand the specific details, like scent profiles and fragrance intensities, of the perfume you want. After creating the perfume, they can send you a sample for approval before making a large batch of the fragrance. Smell the fragrance and wear it to test how long it stays on your skin. Your chemist can add or remove certain elements based on your trial results. At Freelance Formulations, we encourage collaboration with each of our clients. This helps make sure the perfume smells and feels exactly the way they want it to. You can ask us for suggestions on things like increasing the perfume's shelf life to improve customer satisfaction.
Choosing Packaging
Perfume products may require specific packaging to make sure the fragrance doesn't change when exposed to light or heat. At Freelance Formulations, our chemists can offer guidance on choosing packaging that will help your perfume stay fresh longer. Some popular perfume packaging options include glass bottles, plastic bottles, and roll-on containers. The chemists can also suggest the types of storage instructions you should have printed on the perfume packaging for customers to read and follow.
Staying in Compliance
Cosmetic chemists are knowledgeable about the various regulations surrounding cosmetic products like perfumes. At Freelance Formulations, we can help confirm that your perfume formulation complies with relevant laws and guidelines set by organizations like the FDA. Regulations may vary for brands that choose to make their fragrances organic or vegan. We understand these regulations and can help your brand and product get the necessary approvals.
