GC-MS of 4 commercial perfumes

GC-MS data from 4 commercial perfumes

Four commercial perfumes were purchased and stored at 12 °C: Black opium from Yves Saint Laurent (France), Poison Girl from DIOR (France), 212 SEXY from Carolina Herrera (New york, USA) and 24 FAUBOURG from HERMES (France). The analysis of the four perfumes was performed using an Agilent 7890B GC, equipped with a Supelcowax 10 capillary column (30 m, 0.25 mm i.d., 0.25 µm film thickness) and coupled to a mass spectrometer 5977 Agilent Technologies. Helium was chosen as carrier gas at a flow rate of 1.3 mL/min. Column temperature was initially fixed at 40 °C for 2 min, then gradually increased to 240 °C at 3 °C/ min, and finally 240 °C for 5 min. For GC-MS detection an electron impact source was used with an ionization energy fixed at 70 eV. Data were acquired using full scan mode with a m/z range from 30 to 450. The perfumes were diluted 1:10 (v:v) with ethanol and 1.0 µL of the diluted samples was automatically injected in split mode (split ratio 100:1). Injector and detector temperatures were set at 250 and MS source at 230 °C, respectively. Agilent G1701EA MSD Productivity ChemStation Software Version E.02.02 was used to manage analysis.
