Perfume Composition Synergistic Odor Blending
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current perfume compositions struggle to achieve synergistic blending of odor molecules, leading to unpredictable and variable outcomes in sensory performance, with few examples of synergistic effects and limited understanding of combinatorial mechanisms in olfactory research.
Innovation Solution
The development of perfume compositions using specific groups of ingredients, such as Group 1A, Group 1B, and Group 1C, which include resilient odor components that enhance intensity and create new odor characters when combined, allowing for the formulation of stronger, more complex perfumes with reduced need for additional ingredients.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If traditional perfume compositions are used with multiple odor molecules, then the fragrance complexity increases, but the sensory performance becomes unpredictable and variable
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the chemical parameters of the perfume composition by selecting specific odor molecules with defined molecular weights, functional groups, and structural characteristics from prescribed groups. This parameter-based selection ensures predictable synergistic interactions while maintaining fragrance complexity, resolving the contradiction between versatility and reliability.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates a composite perfume composition by combining specific odor molecules from different prescribed groups (Group 1, Group 2, Group 3) in defined concentration ranges. This composite approach ensures that the combination of molecules produces reliable synergistic effects while maintaining complex fragrance profiles, addressing both fragrance complexity and sensory consistency.
2Illumination intensity
If more odor molecules are added to achieve desired fragrance profile, then the intensity and complexity increase, but the number of ingredients required increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple odor-contributing functions into a smaller set of carefully selected molecules from prescribed groups. By selecting molecules that naturally exhibit synergistic interactions, the composition achieves high odor intensity and complexity with fewer ingredients, resolving the contradiction between intensity and ingredient quantity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent optimizes the concentration parameters of selected odor molecules within defined ranges to maximize sensory impact. By adjusting these parameters, the composition achieves high intensity with minimal ingredients, as the selected molecules work synergistically rather than requiring additional components.
3Illumination intensity
If synergistic blending is attempted with multiple odor molecules, then the sensory impact may be enhanced, but the understanding and control of combinatorial mechanisms remains limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the complex combinatorial problem into manageable parts by prescribing specific groups of odor molecules with defined characteristics (molecular weight ranges, functional groups, structural features). This segmentation allows controlled synergistic blending while simplifying the understanding and control of combinatorial mechanisms, resolving the contradiction between sensory impact and mechanism complexity.
