lets be honest here...fragrance is a multimilion dollar industry...design and testing of fragrances is important so they dont turn out a "flop"..this is a buisness..they are not creating fragrances for fun..its peoples jobs...some of these small niche houses are under control of you favorite big designer houses...test something on a small scale run through niche houses and modify formulations to meet the desires of average consumers...try to obtain materials in bulk and obtain cheapest formulation as possible while still retaining almost the exact same scent as the origional design(when in large scale production)...sure when you do large scale runs and multiple batches there will be small noticable diferences in scents and trying to comply with fragrance chemical regulations only makes things harder...there areso many nice scents that are/were created out there that never came to be because of these regulations......
