The traditional assumption that perfume are utilized uniquely for veiling the personal stench
was questioned by the consequence of ongoing examination. In spite of the fact that the
biological role of human body odour is very important, it likely that Perfume are not in
conflict with the body odour but there is so many medicinal purposes like antioxidant,
antibacterial, antiseptic and antifungal activities are present in all Aromatic plants (Volatile
Oils). The extracted essential oil were further mixed with ethanol and subjected them for
preparation of three different formulations. Clove, Rose, Cinnamon, Orange, Anise and
Lemon oils, Glycerine, Water, Ethyl alcohol is used for making the herbal perfume. Among
three formulation, Formulation C ( Anise oil, Clove oil, Cinnamon oil, Rose oil, Lemon oil,
Orange oil, Glycerine, Water, Ethyl alcohol ) was shown better antibacterial activity. Here
different concentrations of formulations were made and subjected for antioxidant movement
i.e hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity. Among all, 0.5 ?g /ml concentration of
formulation C was found to be best antioxidant activity. The result obtained suggests that
presence of terpenes in these essential oils is liable for antibacterial and antioxidant activity.
