• Analysis– Brand– Colour– Fragrance– Origin or Company– Price– Size– Place– Quality– Packaging

HistoryPerfume is a mixture of fragrant essential oils or aroma compounds, fixatives, and solvents used to give the human body, animals, objects, and living spaces "a pleasant scent." The odoriferous compounds that make up a perfume can be manufactured synthetically or extracted from plant or animal sources.Perfumes have been known to exist in some of the earliest human civilizations, either through ancient texts or from archaeological digs. Modern perfumery began in the late 19th century with the commercial synthesis of aroma compounds such as vanillin or coumarin, which allowed for the composition of perfumes with smells previously unattainable solely from natural aromatics alone.

• The range from Rs.100-Rs.500 is least preferred because very less variety is available in this range.

• And we can also see that perfumes in the range Rs.3000 and above are preferred less because of its high cost.
