Discontinued perfumes sometimes are not easy to find
Some times, even if we try as hard as we can, it’s just impossible to find some discontinued perfumes. They just don’t sell them anymore and you can’t find them in shops nor stores or online.
Well, it’s time to choose a new perfume but there’s a way you can do it while keeping the essence of the discontinued perfumes with you.
Perfumes are made basically with water, alcohol, flagranced oils and some chemical compounds such as aroma, fixatives and solvents. Since mid 1800 these oils can be chemically synthesized. The aroma is exactly like the natural one but with a much lower cost of production and his availability does not depend from natural events.
Thanks to the Internet you can now have a list of the ingredients of the most common perfumes, even the discontinued perfumes. All you have to do is find which fragranced oil is in the ingredients of the perfume. Here are the most common types of oils for perfumes:
- Rose
- Lemon Oil
- Citronella
- Lavender
- Jasmine
- Bergamot
- Clove
- Ginger
And many more…
Once you know which oil is content in your discontinued perfume, try perfumes with the same fragranced oils! It’s always fun and enjoyable trying new perfumes. Surely you’ll find a perfume that will make you remember your discontinued fragrance and the sadness for not finding it will soon go away.
