Abstract :
Innovations resulting from technological advancements represent the best strategy for success in the increasingly competitive textile industry. The fabric production rate is very tremendous and the market has limited scope which can be multiplied by value added finishing to textiles like fragrance finish which counts more value in the current scenario of market. The maintenance and improvement of current properties and the creation of new material properties are the most important reasons for the fictionalization of textiles. Recently, fragrances have become available that can be readily added on the textiles and after finishing and fixation; they emit a pleasant fragrance which is sometimes used as a medicine renowned with the term of Aroma-chology. Here in this paper we have discussed about the technological aspects for the incorporation of different scents into fabrics, leading to the production of scented fabrics with and without corresponding pigments to modify the response, and the psychology of acceptance of synthetic scents in textile goods. The approach is to assess marketing possibilities of incorporating fragrance into textile material which are commonly used for the apparel purposes as per consumer willingness.
