How can increase Enormous Sillage & Longevity of Coconut Oil Fragrance?

[StringJunky]

What does "enormous sillage" mean?

The longevity of a perfume depends on what the fragrance is carried in, which determines the rate it is dispersed. Ambergris has traditionally been used in high-end perfumes but is extremely expensive. You could look into dipropylene glycol as a start which seems to be in quite widespread use in the scent industries and will handle water-based, alcohol-based and oil-based base fragrances. To start you off, read these:

Increasing the intensity of the smell is basically a function of the concentration of the coconut-signature volatile  compounds, so you would probably need to isolate and concentrate those compounds by some sort of distillation process, probably. There might possibly be additive compounds that can synergistically enhance those elements of the scent but it's way outside of my knowledge and is probably very specialist.

Edit: Just had a thought from remembering my fishing days. Get some dessicated coconut and spread it out on some suitable metalplate for toasting under a toaster. Toast the coconut gently until it is lightly brown but DON'T scorch it. you might have to practice but you can get a pretty strong coconut smell from that and you could powder it and use that as your coconut base and add that to the dipropylene glycol and let it sit for some time.

sillage

siːˈjɑːʒ/

noun

 

1. the degree to which a perfume's fragrance lingers in the air when worn.

   "neither scent has a very strong sillage"
   
   
   
   If I was looking for some way to spread the smell of coconut, I'd look at the things they use to add scent to electronic cigarette liquids (without the nicotine- of course).

   This sort of thing

You learn something new every day.  I have always thought the word meant the outlet from a sewer...  maybe I heard someone describe the sillage from a sewer outlet when I was younger and I took it to mean the sewerage itself...  but I guess they were talking about the extended reach of it's stench.    hmm...  if it is specific to perfume then I am now assuming they were intentionally misusing the word to describe the reach of the scent of the sewer.

i thought the outlet was called a stench pipe. In perfumery, it is pronounced 'see-yarzh' (Fr) it seems and not 'sillidge' which is probably what''s used in the water treatment industry.

I think you might be right...  it's spelt with one 'L' for water...  that must be what I was confusing it with...  although even then the dictionary suggests Fermented industrial waste or food waste storage and things..  Maybe this is the sewerage connection to silage...  fermented waste....  which of course can probably be said to have a sillage of it's own...  it's just not a perfume.

It's rather unfortunate connection, don't you think.   Having said that they did/do use skunk's naughty bits and whale vomit in the perfume industry
