Fragrance Blotter Strips (also known as perfume testing strips or scent strips) are typically made of thick, absorbent paper. Their primary function is to absorb and retain perfume liquid, enabling perfumers or consumers to sample and evaluate the fragrance. These strips are specially treated to capture the scent, allowing the aroma to remain on the paper after the alcohol evaporates, making it easier to smell the fragrance accurately.
Why Thick Paper Is Used
High Absorbency
Thick paper has stronger absorption properties, effectively soaking up the perfume liquid and ensuring the fragrance fully penetrates the paper fibers.
Long-Lasting Scent Retention
This type of paper retains the perfume’s components more effectively, allowing perfumers to evaluate the fragrance consistently over time and in different environments.
How to Use
Spray or dab the perfume onto the blotter strip.
Wait approximately 5 minutes for the alcohol to evaporate, avoiding interference with your sense of smell.
Gently wave the strip in the air or bring it close to your nose to smell the fragrance.
