Brief History: The modern perfume industry relies on carrier bases to dilute concentrated aromatic ingredients into safe and usable fragrances. Historically, perfumes were created using natural oils, alcohol, botanical extracts, and resins. As fragrance formulation became more sophisticated, specialized perfume bases were developed to improve consistency, scent performance, and ease of blending.

The growth of home fragrance crafting and DIY perfumery led companies such as Escentia to offer ready-made perfume bases that allow users to create custom fragrances without needing to formulate a base from scratch.
