Perfumers pay big money for ambergris because it is a fixative, which means it holds a smell in place on a person's body.
揅heap perlfumes smell good in the first hour or so and then everything is gone,” explains Bohlmann.“But expensive perfumes are much more stable.Their smell lasts much longer, for hours or even a day after you apply them.”
The new chemical, made from the tree genes, can be used as a fixative, too.And using yeast to make it is far cheaper than acquiring ambergris.
Bohlmann admits he never thought he'd get into the perfume business.But now, he says, producers have been calling to find out how to use his technology in new perfumes.
