New-Mown Hay.
Hay owes its fragrance partly to cumarin, which is present in many plants, but in especially large amount in tonka beans. Hence all similar perfumes must contain tincture of tonka. Other aromatic substances, however, contribute to the odor of hay, but the cumarin gives, as it were, the keynote to its real odor.
A very pleasant perfume is made after the following formula:
| Essence of rose (triple) | 1 qt. |

Some add to this perfume 1 pint of extract of cassie which imparts a greenish color to it.
