Summary: | Aroma compounds are present in perfume whether the perfume is branded or imitation. In
this study, the volatile aromatic compounds in three brands of perfumes (branded and
imitation perfumes of same name brand) were extracted using solid phase microextraction
(SPME) coupled to gas chromatography with mass spectrometry detector (GC-MS). Several
extraction temperatures; 28, 35, and 40°C and time conditions; 5 min, 10 min, and 20 min
were tested on the samples to achieve the optimum condition. The highest extraction
efficiency was found when the samples were extracted at 28°C for 10 min extraction time.
The volatile aroma compounds in all samples were extracted at this optimum condition and
were identified by GC-MS. The common volatile aroma compounds such as limonene, α-
pinene, β-pinene, α-myrcene, phellandrene, and linalool were found in both branded and
imitation perfume. Their relative amounts however were different in the branded and
imitation perfumes. |
