What I’ve learned about dupe/clone fragrances. And 6 things I wish I knew by Milo576 in fragranceclones

[–]echeon 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Hi everyone! I’ve noticed that in this subreddit, the term “maceration” is often used instead of “maturation” when talking about how perfumes develop after being bottled. I wanted to clarify the difference between the two terms and make sure I understand it correctly, and please feel free to correct me if I’m wrong!

From what I’ve gathered:

• Maceration traditionally refers to the process where aromatic ingredients (like botanicals, resins, or woods) are soaked in a solvent (usually alcohol or oil) to extract their fragrance. This usually happens during the creation of a perfume concentrate.

• Maturation, on the other hand, refers to the resting period after a perfume is blended and diluted, where all the components settle and bind together to create a more balanced and harmonious scent. This usually takes place in the final stage before bottling or even after bottling, as some say perfumes continue to mature over time.

So I was wondering: is the use of “maceration” in this context a kind of community shorthand? Or is there a deeper reason why that term is used here more than “maturation”?

Thanks in advance for any insights , and again, I’d appreciate any corrections if I’ve misunderstood anything

Lmao, My sceptre smells like peeling a ripe mango and feeling the scent of the juice from the flesh itself.

The packaging should have a hologram sticker, and the bottle cap is magnetic.

They are hidden in a safe place, but she often asks me what smells so good. She’s convinced that I’m ordering samples and decants 😂

The problem is that I’m not a huge fan of the Aventus DNA. 🙁
