Chapter 209: Fragrance
As for the perfume they created, no ordinary people would ever be able to afford it. Only members of the royal family or the upper echelons of society could afford it. It was much more expensive than luxury watches and cars.
Ah Bei had never seen Qin Yu use perfume before, but suddenly she told them she wanted to join the organization.
Was this even possible?
He was not doubting his boss’s capability, but in the perfume industry, talent and experience was very much sought after. Even if many perfumers studied hard for their entire lives, they would not be able to create something long-lasting. There were too many factors in play.
Qin Yu looked at the mountains in the distance and said in a distant tone, “That person is very important to me. I must see him.”
During the period when she was sick, she went to France and indeed gained a lot. After returning, she decided to use this method to get close to that person.
Although she knew it was difficult, she was not afraid.
In order to find out the truth about her parents’ death, she had to do it, no matter how difficult it was.
“Okay, let’s not delay anymore. We’re starting right now!” Qin Yu pointed at the pile of equipment on the table.
“The first step is to create a series of high-level perfumes that will take over the market and obtain admission tickets to the 32nd International Perfume Awards.”
Not only was it difficult for them to join the World Association of Perfume but the International Perfume Awards also had entry barriers. Only the top ten perfume brands in the world was selected.
Tang Rou, who was still a rookie perfumer, first became a perfumer for the famous perfume brand Coquettish. Then she developed a classic perfume and won the Silver Award of the International Perfume Awards.
Qin Yu could have used this method to participate in the international perfume awards, but she didn’t want to expose her identity. If she went to another perfume company, she would inevitably have to use her real identity join their research and development team, she definitely couldn’t hide her identity.
So after thinking about it, Qin Yu felt that it was better to ask Ah Bei for help.
Although it would be a little more troublesome, it was safer and would not alert that person.
After making the research and development plan, they began working.
Qin Yu used an ancient oriental perfuming technique. She was preparing to create a series perfumes with fragrances extracted from local flowers. The main themes were orchid, wintersweet, bamboo and peony, to begin a new trend in the industry.
The ancient oriental perfuming technique was different from its western counterpart. It did not require an extremely precise instrument. It was more a test of the perfumer’s own sense of smell and talent in perfuming.
Ah Bei had met many famous perfumers in his father’s company. He had even met international famous perfumers. Those perfumers could not guarantee that they would be able to develop a classic perfume in a short period of time, that was why he had some doubts about Qin Yu’s capability.
But soon, he realized that Qin Yu’s talent in perfuming was incomparable to anyone he had met before.
It was frightening to witness.
She could smell the difference in the amount of essence oil used in one milligram of the two highly-identical formulas. She could remember the difference between the smell of thousands of different spices and their combination. Not only that, she could quickly determine the most suitable position of each spice in the front, middle, and back adjustments of the perfume.
After a few days of experiments, Ah Bei and Ah Nan’s noses were almost out of order, but Qin Yu still maintained an extremely high level of concentration and a keen sense of smell.
Amazing!
“I think these few perfumes are okay. Should I try mass-producing them?” Ah Bei picked up a few bottles of test tubes next to the operating table.
He had smelled almost all of the more famous perfumes on the market. In his opinion, these few bottles of perfumes that he had experimented with already had an amazing smell.
Qin Yu took a few glances.
“Nope, they are not enough. The first bottle has a strong scent of plum blossoms, but there is also a small amount of indole, which will bring about a fragrant smell in the front notes. Many perfumes think that they can brag if they succeed in the middle and back notes. That is pure bullshit. The front notes are the most important! The second bottle can be changed with different ingredients. There must be a better choice. Let me think again. The last two bottles can only fool people who don’t know anything and throw them away.”
Ah Bei thought,?oh, so I’m just a person who doesn’t know anything. It’s really sad.
While Qin Yu and the other two were busy in the rural town, M City wasn’t just as peaceful.
“What? They haven’t found her yet? Where can this idiot go? Did she disappear into thin air? How could she not be found?” Bai Xin knocked on the table and said in disbelief.
These days, her people had turned M City upside down, but they still couldn’t find any trace of Qin Yu.
“Bad news, Madam! Young Master was beaten up by the Master!” Before Bai Xin could finish Qin Yu’s work, a servant suddenly came in to report.
“What happened? Why was Yu Er beaten up by his father? Oh my god!” Bai Xin almost wanted to faint. She almost lost her balance and rushed out of the room with the help of the servant.
At this moment, in the living room.
“On your knees!” Ning Jie slapped Ning Yu in exasperation. “You Idiot!”
