Why does catalytic combustion destroy odours but...

...not the odours of the Maison Berger Paris perfume?
Maison Berger Paris strives to perpetuate and protect its technique. The House has a technical centre in Limoges, carries out R&D permanently and files patents.
There are two zones in the burner. An external part, a catalytic zone, where the temperature reaches around 500°C, which allows for the catalytic oxidation of alcohol and destroys unwanted odours. A central part, with a much lower temperature (200°C), which diffuses the Home Fragrance whilst perfectly preserving the notes and thus guaranteeing excellent olfactory quality.

Why is there isopropyl alcohol in Maison Berger Paris perfumes and not another alcohol?

Attentive to the quality of air indoors, Maison Berger Paris commits to only diffuse substances which are perfectly managed and controlled. Maison Berger Paris works with the best French perfume-makers to develop refined olfactory universes and strives invariably to guarantee the harmlessness of its products. Isopropyl alcohol perfectly meets the promises of quality and harmlessness of Maison Berger Paris.
