CHAPTER V
Read up on the methods of extracting perfumes from flowers in any encyclopedia or in Duncan's "Chemistry of Commerce" or Tilden's "Chemical Discovery in the Twentieth Century" or Rogers' "Industrial Chemistry."
The pamphlet containing a synopsis of the lectures by the late Alois von Isakovics on "Synthetic Perfumes and Flavors," published by the Synfleur Scientific Laboratories, Monticello, New York, is immensely interesting. Van Dyk & Co., New York, issue a pamphlet on the composition of oil of rose. Gildemeister's "The Volatile Oils" is excellent on the history of the subject. Walter's "Manual for the Essence Industry" (Wiley) gives methods and recipes. Parry's "Chemistry of Essential Oils and Artificial Perfumes," 1918 edition. "Chemistry and Odoriferous Bodies Since 1914" by G. Satie in Chemie et Industrie, vol. II, p. 271, 393. "Odor and Chemical Constitution," Chemical Abstracts, 1917, p. 3171 and Journal of Society for Chemical Industry, v. 36, p. 942.
