It relates to a perfume composition and a cosmetic composition comprising the perfume composition.

Stimulation through incense is very fast in the brain through the olfactory cells, and the stimulus is transmitted to the limbic system of the brain and analyzed after the fragrance, a neurochemical that causes calm, tension, relaxation, stimulation, euphoria, etc. As it is produced and secreted, it reaches each organ in the body. The action of the scent enhances the body's vitality and immunity, helps maintain health, and affects the emotional stability and sensitivity of humans.

Psychological effects on fragrance can be objectively and quantitatively measured using pupils, skin electrical resistance, and heart rate. In particular, α waves and β waves in human brain waves can be used as an index of determination of excitement or relaxation.

The present inventors have tried to verify the effect on the physiological and psychological state of the human body on the scents extracted from various plants, EEG (Central nervous system physiological indicators) and skin resistance (GSR) values autonomic nervous system physiological indicators for various odors As a result, it was found that the complex scent of Neroli oil and Ylang ylang oil caused a romantic feeling. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a perfume composition causing a romantic feeling to a human, and to provide a cosmetic composition comprising the perfume composition.

The present invention contains neroli oil and ylang ylang oil, and in particular, neroli oil and ylang ylang oil are selected from neroli oil: ylang ylang oil = 4: 1. By containing in a weight ratio, it provides a fragrance composition which increases a beta ((beta)) brain wave and increases a skin electrical resistance value.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, by mixing two kinds of natural perfume, a perfume composition that causes romantic emotions in humans based on the change of central nervous system and autonomic nervous system physiological indicators, and subjective mood evaluation results for inhalation And cosmetic compositions.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail.

Romantic feeling in the present invention, aroused feeling, refreshing, fresh, light, comfortable, romantic, feminine, warm feeling, objectively, when measuring the EEG when the romantic feeling or feeling beta (β) wave Increases.

The neroli oil used in the present invention is a dark yellow liquid obtained by distilling an orange flower, giving off a luxurious floral scent, and is a natural fragrance having excellent sterilizing and antibacterial effects and having an aphrodisiac effect. Ylang-Ylang oil is a light yellow liquid obtained by distilling the flowers of Ylang-Ylang tree, has a strong and unique flower fragrance, and is a natural fragrance that is good for relieving sexual insensitivity, nervous tension, and insomnia.

In one embodiment of the present invention, in order to objectively determine the effect of causing the romantic feeling of the fragrance, physiological signals such as beta (β) wave and skin electrical resistance were measured. In the case of using the multi-flavor according to an embodiment of the present invention, the beta (β) wave in the EEG showed a tendency to increase significantly, the skin electrical resistance value also showed a tendency to increase significantly.
