WellsScent - Fragrances are becoming much more sophisticated and demanding with customers requiring more complex and bespoke fragrances. In addition to the increase in sophistication there is also a demand for the fragrance to be stronger in odor and longer lasting in performance. Whilst in reality these are two competing requirements Wells have developed systems which incorporate a novel odor retention additive. This allows higher loadings of fragrance to be achieved in the masterbatch and a more controlled release.
