eng The First Experience with Analysis of Perfume Nowadays, perfumes are produced from natural or synthetic substances. The most of perfumes contain a lot of compounds. This research deals with the analysis of volatile organic compounds in natural perfumes such as Praga Alchymica, which is produced by Rafaella. Rose Natura, Rose Taif and Rose Josefina are additional samples. These are the starting materials for the manufacture of perfumes. For analysis of volatile substances headspace and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) have been used as these are frequently used methods for perfume analysis. The results indicate that nature of pure perfume like Rose Natura and Rose Taif has different compounds without 1-linalool as both of them have different smells. Moreover, on the aforementioned basis such information can be used for determination of basic compounds in mixed perfume like Rose Josefina. The same substances from Rose Taifa and other aromas were measured in this perfume. Praga Alchymica was mixed from Rose nature and unknown flavor. This research also proved that for small amount of samples it is better to use GC-MS compared to headspace GC. Research will also entertain using “heart-cut” MDGC system with using chiral columns in second dimension. Perfumes; Volatile Organic Compounds; GC-MS; Heart-Cut MDGC
