Talk:Note (perfumery)

The grammar of the opening paragraph could use some work, however, not being very familiar with this use of note myself, I am ill suited to the task of improving upon it. 64.178.103.31 (talk) 05:44, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The sections from Note (perfumery) were not in fact copied from http://theperfumedcourt.com/perfume_info.aspx. They were taken from the section in the Perfume article, which I contributed significantly to and if I may say, was the main author. I believe "The perfumed court" copied the section for their website from the wikipedia perfume article. Please restored the portions of text that you removed that you removed.

To check this for yourself(ves) see http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Perfume&oldid=214728146. The purpose of the edit is to thin down and take the info from the Perfume#Fragrance_notes section and put it into this article. Sjschen (talk) 21:41, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for letting me know. I've restored it and noted the split in edit summary. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 21:56, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Volatility grouping[edit]

This section uses the undefined term "evaporation coefficient", which does not appear elsewhere in wikipedia. Also, no units are specified. We do have a page for "heat of evaporation", which may be what is intended; however, since no units are specified in the chart, and the source (from 1923) likely used a different set of units then are used today, it is rather difficult to verify this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.193.202.249 (talk) 09:06, 17 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
