This lady majored in biology and minored in chemistry then saw an add and was about making perfumes and scented candles so she tried it out and she pretty much loves her job. Follis says that you need to know chemistry really well in order to get the feel for this job. She also says that the process in making it will need oils from certain plants and even vegetables, I think that’s pretty weird to use vegetables to make a scented candle or a perfume but I think that sounds cool to see somebody extract oils from it and I didn’t even know that some vegetables could give off oils.
