People love perfumes, but few know how much work goes into making them. A perfumer's job is not just about mixing scents—it involves research, testing, and patience.
At Scenjesty, our perfumers spend hours creating the perfect fragrance. They test different combinations, check quality, and make sure every bottle is worth it.
Let’s take a look at what happens behind the scenes.
Morning: Preparing for the Day
A perfumer starts the day by preparing their nose. Strong coffee or spicy food can affect how they smell things, so they keep their senses fresh.
Daily Morning Routine:
- Smelling different natural oils to warm up the nose.
- Testing scents from previous days to check if they’ve changed.
- Reviewing customer feedback and market trends.
💡 Did You Know?
Perfume smells different in the morning than in the evening because your body temperature changes throughout the day.
Making Small Samples (1ml Testers)
Before a perfume is launched, perfumers create 1ml testers. These samples help test the fragrance on different skin types and in various weather conditions.
At Scenjesty, we offer 6 fragrances, so each tester pack includes all six scents.
Why Are Testers Important?
- Customers can try before buying.
- Perfumers can check if the scent lasts long enough.
- Adjustments can be made before full production.
📢 Tip:
If you like a perfume but are unsure, always buy a tester pack first to see how it smells on your skin.
Mixing Scents in the Lab
This is where the real work happens. A perfumer must balance different ingredients to get the perfect blend.
Steps in Creating a Perfume:
- Selecting the base notes (long-lasting scents like musk or vanilla).
- Adding middle notes (floral or spicy scents that stay for hours).
- Choosing the top notes (fresh scents like citrus or mint that you smell first).
- Mix the ingredients and let them sit for a few weeks.
Packing the Tester Packs - All 6 Scents Inside
Once the testers are ready, the next step is packing them into small boxes. These are sent to customers, reviewers, and perfume stores.
What’s Inside a Tester Pack?
- Six different fragrance testers.
- A card with fragrance details.
- A thank-you note for the customer.
Tester packs are a great way to find your signature scent without spending money on a full-size bottle.
Filling the Perfume Bottles
After finalizing the fragrance, the next step is bottling. This process must be done carefully to maintain quality.
How Perfume Bottles Are Filled:
- Each bottle is filled with the exact amount of perfume.
- Sealed tightly to prevent leaks.
- A final quality check ensures consistency.
📢 Tip:
Store your perfume away from heat and direct sunlight. High temperatures can change the scent over time.

How long does a perfume last?
Most perfumes last 6-8 hours on the skin. If you want it to last longer, spray it on your clothes and pulse points.

Eau de Toilette (5-15% concentration) is lighter and fades faster.
