New fragrance activated by contact with sweat
Print Edition
Scientists in Britain said yesterday they had developed the first perfume which smells better the more you sweat and reduces body odor.
Researchers at Queen鈥檚 University Belfast said in a statement that the new perfume 鈥渞eleases more of its aroma when it comes into contact with moisture.鈥
The fragrance uses as a delivery system an ionic liquid 鈥 salt in the form of liquid 鈥 with no smell.
鈥淭he perfumed ionic liquid releases its aroma when it comes into contact with water, allowing more of the perfume鈥檚 scent to be released onto a person鈥檚 skin,鈥 the Queen鈥檚 University Ionic Liquid Laboratories said.
The new perfume could also take away bad odors.
Queen鈥檚 University said it was already working with a perfume company on practical applications and project leader Nimal Gunaratne said it had 鈥済reat commercial potential.鈥
Gunaratne said that it could also be used for other applications when the slow release of substances is required.
