Than Arabs and Romans discovered the process. The first perfume in Europe was made in Hungary in 14th century and was called across the Europe as Hungarian water. The flowers used to create the perfume were grown in southern regions of Europe, in Italy and France. In 16th century France became a leading producer of perfume and its creation is still popular today.
 The creators of fragrance always kept the formulas in secret, but despite this a professional can always detect the origin and mane components of the perfume. There are 5 basic families of scent in modern production: categories: the Fougere family, Floral, Woody, Oriental and Fresh. They determine the theme of a particular fragrance.
There are some basic distinctions in perfumes: Pure Perfume, Eau de Perfume, Eau de Toilette, and Eau de Cologne. Pure perfume contains the highest percentage of fragrance oils. Also the perfume is known for its top, middle, and base notes that give you the taste of a perfume. Top note is what you smell the first moments. Middle note is the smell as the perfume evaporates.
