[0061] The vanilla fragrance composition is prepared according to the method of Example 1.
[0062] Performance Test 1:
[0063] (1) The aroma of Comparative Examples 1-2 and Comparative Example 1 is compared, and it is found that the aroma of Example 1 is consistent with the smell of vanillin; the aroma of Example 2 is relatively close to the smell of vanillin, but has more obvious mint breath; no menthyl acetate is added in Comparative Example 1, and the aroma diffusion ability is poor, and the smell is very weak.
[0064] (2) The dissolution of the compositions obtained in Example 1, Comparative Examples 2-4 is evaluated, which can be seen in Figure 1 to Figure 4 , Figure 1 Example 1, Figure 2 Comparative Example 2,Figure 3 Example 1-2 and Comparative Examples 1-4 were further subjected to sensory questionnaire survey on the smell of the compositions obtained and vanilla beans. The population participating in the test was 10 persons of general male and female aged 25-35 years old. The vanilla bean and the vanilla-scented composition were respectively smelled, and the contents in the following table were scored to calculate the average score to determine the similarity and coordination of the smell of the vanilla-scented composition and the natural vanilla bean. Figure 4 Comparative Example 4, it can be found that Comparative Example 2 has obvious solubility problem, and there are unsolved crystals in the composition system.
[0065] (3) Further sensory questionnaire survey on the smell of the compositions obtained in Example 1-2 and Comparative Examples 1-4 and vanilla beans was conducted. The population participating in the test was 10 persons of general male and female aged 25-35 years old. The vanilla bean and the vanilla-scented composition were respectively smelled, and the contents in the following table were scored to calculate the average score to determine the similarity and coordination of the smell of the vanilla-scented composition and the natural vanilla bean.
[0066] Specifically, there are two indexes, which are shown in Table 7.

[0086] The preparation method of the essence is the same as that in Example 3.
[0087] (Lipstick composition and preparation thereof)
[0088] Example 5
[0089] The example provides a lipstick composition and a preparation method thereof, and a formula of the lipstick composition is shown in Table 12.
[0090] Table 12
[0091] Ingredient Chinese Name Example 5 Beeswax 22% Synthetic wax 3% Squalane 74.8% Fragrance of Example 3 0.2%
[0092] The preparation method of the lipstick composition comprises the following steps: beeswax, synthetic wax and squalane are weighed into a beaker and heated to 90 DEG C, and then are stirred until completely melted; the essence in Example 3 is added and mixed uniformly; and the temperature is reduced to solidify, so as to obtain the lipstick composition.
[0093] Comparative Examples 5-6
[0094] The example provides a lipstick composition and a preparation method thereof, and a formula of the lipstick composition is shown in Table 13.
[0095] Table 13
[0096]
[0097] The preparation method of the lipstick composition comprises the following steps: beeswax, synthetic wax and squalane are weighed into a beaker and heated to 90 DEG C, and then are stirred until completely melted; the essence in Example 3 is added and mixed uniformly; and the temperature is reduced to solidify, so as to obtain the lipstick composition.
[0098] Performance test 2:
[0099] (1) The Example 5 and Comparative Examples 5-6 were subjected to the following tests, respectively:
[0100] The heating was repeated to 90°C for one hour, and the aroma presentation was compared after cooling and solidification. The simulation of the hot filling process was repeated four times. The formula was a high-hardness lipstick base formula with a high content of wax, which required long-time heating during filling. Therefore, the formula was suitable for investigating the high-temperature resistance of the fragrance. The specific aroma performance is shown in Table 14.
[0101] Table 14
[0102]
[0103] Note: Base odor refers to the characteristic odor of the composition of beeswax, synthetic wax, and squalane.
[0104] From the above experiments, it can be seen that repeated heating has little effect on the odor of Example 5; on the contrary, the high-temperature odor stability of Comparative Examples 5 and 6 is weak. It is shown that the vanilla fragrance composition of Example 3 has better high-temperature resistance than natural citrus essential oil. Example 3 not only can prepare a high-temperature resistant fragrance, but also can continuously cover the characteristic odor of the base under the condition of repeated heating, further lasting the fragrance.
