Essential oil authentication and adulteration detection: Safeguarding the future of fragrance chemistry

Title : Essential oil authentication and adulteration detection: Safeguarding the future of fragrance chemistry

Abstract:

Essential oils are fundamental to the global fragrance industry, yet they remain among the most frequently adulterated natural ingredients. Such practices not only compromise product quality and safety but also threaten consumer trust and the integrity of the fragrance market. With growing emphasis on sustainability and regulatory compliance, robust scientific approaches to authenticity are urgently needed.
This presentation will explore advanced analytical strategies for essential oil authentication, including gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS), chiral analysis, isotopic ratio testing, and chemometric modeling. Real-world case studies will illustrate how these methods uncover standard adulteration practices and highlight the consequences for cosmetic and fragrance formulations.
Beyond quality control, the session will discuss how authentication supports sustainable sourcing, ensures ingredient safety, and strengthens transparency across global supply chains. By bridging chemistry, authenticity, and sustainability, this talk will offer practical insights for perfumers, formulators, and industry stakeholders committed to delivering trustworthy, high-quality fragrances in an evolving marketplace.
