Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 36.
Perfume making is an ancient art, dating back thousands of years. While once relying solely on natural ingredients, modern perfumery embraces both natural essences and synthetic aroma molecules. This blend allows perfumers to create complex and unique scents unimaginable in the past.
Natural ingredients, derived from flowers, fruits, resins, and woods, form the traditional base of perfume. Rose oil, for example, renowned for its romantic aroma, is extracted from delicate petals through a time-consuming and costly process. Similarly, precious sandalwood oil, known for its warm and woody notes, comes from the heartwood of mature sandalwood trees.
Synthetic aroma molecules, on the other hand, offer perfumers a broader palette and greater creative freedom. These molecules, often mimicking scents found in nature, can be produced more affordably and sustainably. Furthermore, synthetic ingredients can provide unique scent profiles not found in nature, opening a world of possibilities for innovative perfume creations.
The future of perfume making likely lies in a harmonious balance between natural and synthetic ingredients. This approach allows perfumers to combine the classic beauty of natural essences with the innovative potential of synthetic molecules, crafting fragrances that are both evocative and enduring.
