Abstract
The invention relates to a method for producing a fragrance and/or aroma composition using a composition database that contains recipe vectors and attribute vectors associated with groups of base compositions. According to the inventive method a target attribute vector is defined, an operator effecting the transformation of recipe vectors to attribute vectors in at least one surrounding of the target attribute vector is determined, a target recipe vector is determined under the proviso that it is transformed to the target attribute factor using said operator, and defined substance components are mixed with one another in proportions according to the target recipe vector.
Claims20
Method for producing a fragrance and/or aroma composition, characterized by using a composition database that is comprised of recipe vectors and attribute vectors associated with a group of base compositions that can be manufactured by mixing predetermined substance components, whereby each recipe vector specifies the proportions of the substance components that are required for the creation of the associated base composition and whereby each attribute vector specifies the evaluation results with regard to selected sensory attributes of the associated base composition, and whereby the method consists of the following steps:
- a) specifying a target attribute vector;
- b) determining an operator which effects a transformation from recipe vectors to attribute vectors at least in a surrounding of the target attribute vector;
- c) establishing a target recipe vector with the proviso that it is transformed to the target attribute vector by using said operator;
- and
- d) mixing the predetermined substance components with proportions according to the target recipe vector.
