Abstract

The invention relates to a system for testing a perfume, comprising: a housing comprising an opening; a test body designed to be at least partially inserted into the housing through the opening, the test body being made at least partially from a material that can be impregnated with perfume; and a perfume-dispensing device arranged inside the housing and designed to dispense the perfume onto the test body when the test body is inserted into the housing. The perfume-dispensing device comprises at least one perfume-impregnating body which the test body is designed to come into contact with upon insertion into the housing, the perfume-impregnating body being designed to fill with perfume and to impregnate the test body with the perfume when it comes into contact therewith.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . The system for testing a perfume, comprising:
 a housing comprising an opening;   a test body designed to be at least partially inserted into the housing through the opening, the test body being made at least partially from a material that can be impregnated with perfume; and   a perfume-dispensing device arranged inside the housing and designed to dispense the perfume onto the test body when the test body is inserted into the housing,   wherein the perfume-dispensing device comprises at least one perfume-impregnating body with which the test body is designed to come into contact when the test body is inserted into the housing, the perfume-impregnating body being designed to be loaded with perfume and to impregnate the test body with the perfume when it comes into contact with the test body.   
     
     
         2 . The system according to  claim 1 , wherein said material that can be impregnated with perfume is a porous material selected from among a ceramic, Porex®, a cellulose, and a plaster. 
     
     
         3 . The system according to  claim 1 , wherein the test body comprises a gripping portion extending along a longitudinal axis, and an end portion arranged in the axial extension of the gripping portion and projecting radially from the gripping portion. 
     
     
         4 . The system according to  claim 1 , wherein the test body comprises a gripping portion extending along a longitudinal axis, and an end portion arranged in the axial extension of the gripping portion, the end portion being made of said material that can be impregnated with perfume and the gripping portion being made of a material impermeable to perfume. 
     
     
         5 . The system according to  claim 1 , wherein the perfume-dispensing device comprises a plurality of perfume-impregnating bodies in the form of solid perfumed elements. 
     
     
         6 . The system according to  claim 5 , wherein the perfumed elements are in the form of granules, chips, beads, or capsules. 
     
     
         7 . The system according to  claim 5 , wherein the perfumed elements are made from plastic, mineral salts, wax, soap, or gel. 
     
     
         8 . The system according to  claim 5 , wherein the perfume-dispensing device comprises a perfume charger containing the perfumed elements. 
     
     
         9 . The system according to  claim 1 , wherein the perfume-dispensing device comprises a perfume charger designed to contain perfume in liquid form and provided with a hole sealed by the perfume-impregnating body, the perfume-impregnating body being mounted to rotate freely on the perfume charger. 
     
     
         10 . The system according to  claim 1 , wherein the perfume-dispensing device comprises a perfume charger designed to contain perfume in liquid form, the perfume-impregnating body being fixedly mounted on the perfume charger and designed to be impregnated with perfume. 
     
     
         11 . The system according to  claim 1 , wherein the perfume-dispensing device comprises a perfume charger designed to contain perfume in liquid form, and two perfume-impregnating bodies mounted to rotate freely on the perfume charger and designed to be impregnated with perfume. 
     
     
         12 . The system according to  claim 10 , wherein the perfume-impregnating bodies are made from foam, Porex®, cellulose, or ceramic. 
     
     
         13 . The system according to  claim 10 , further comprising a wick arranged between the perfume charger and the perfume-impregnating bodies, the wick being designed to soak up the perfume and to impregnate the perfume-impregnating bodies with perfume. 
     
     
         14 . The system according to  claim 1 , wherein the test body is connected to the housing by a tether.
