Description

Perfume scenting device {Apparatus for testing scent of perfume}

The present invention relates to a perfume smelling device, and more particularly, to a perfume scenting device that allows a purchaser to accurately recognize and discriminate a fragrance of a corresponding perfume by actually directing a fragrance emitted from displayed perfume.

As is known, finding a fragrance, particularly in terms of specifying a customer's choice, ultimately involves testing several fragrances in order to select a given fragrance.

For this purpose, it is common practice to use absorbent paper strips (which are often referred to as "test strips" in the perfumery industry).

More specifically, the demonstrator will spray the piece with a small amount of one of the fragrances to be selected and then will now taste the piece to the demonstrator's potential customer.

However, this approach has the disadvantage of entailing spraying for each fragrance an amount that is often beyond what the paper scraps can absorb, and thus results in product loss (not just the pieces as well as vaporized product), unsightly drips. risk of drip formation and uncontrolled filling of each piece (some can be saturated, while others are filled with almost no perfume), making it difficult to compare the strengths of different fragrances; In addition, the surrounding environment is constantly filled with all fragrances that have been tested, which obscures the customer's perception of the new fragrances that are progressively proposed.

It can be seen that the fact that the piece is used only once means that the product remaining on the piece is thrown away before it has yet fully vaporized.

Also, the use of a simple piece of paper to scent a perfume does not always put a potential customer in a desirable mood to evaluate the sophistication of a proposed perfume, especially in the case of luxury perfumes.

A special use of the piece has been proposed, involving assembling the piece with a bell-shaped dome placed on a flat surface and temporarily attaching the piece of paper to its end.

This allows the piece of paper to drain the fragrance, the piece of paper being installed along with the air freshener into the entire volume of the bell-shaped dome, thus allowing a potential customer to take a deep breath of the fragrance to evaluate the quality of the fragrance. can

However, this approach takes up a significant amount of space on this flat surface and does nothing to prevent mixing after a number of bell-shaped domes have been handled.

Another proposal is to place the impregnated fabric in an enclosure that opens continuously so that the fabric can be pulled out and handled and the fragrance impregnated therein can be evaluated, however, the disadvantage of this proposal is that the performer's fingers cannot be used with the continuous fragrance. it will be saturated
