Solid perfume

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Solid perfumes or cream perfumes are perfumes that come in a solid form instead of the more common liquid form. Historically, ointment-like unguents were used as a type of solid perfume; this history dates back to Egyptian times^[1]. Normally the substance that gives the cream its base comes from a type of wax that is initially melted. Once melted, a scent/or several scents may be added and then furthered developed until the cream base reaches the desired consistency. Solid perfumes have seen a resurgence in recent years.
