Mrs. Anuya Sane
Post Graduate Diploma in Perfumery & Cosmetics Management
V.G. Vaze College.
Dear Madam;
This is to inform you that I have completed the internship report titled Fragrance &
Flavour Development Centre, Kannuaj which has been prepared as a requirement
for the completion of the PGDPCM Program in V.G. Vaze College.
While working on the report, I have tried to follow each and every guideline that you
had advised. It has been a very enlightening experience to work in this new venture
and I have thoroughly enjoyed my internship period at FFDC. All personnel of FFDC
has also extended their cooperation whenever required.
Sincerely Yours,

Acknowledgment
I would first like to thank my faculty advisor Mrs. Anuya Joshi of PGDPCM
department of V.G. Vaze College, to inspire eme for my internship program at FFDC.
Next I would like to thank Mr. Shakti Vinay Shukla, Principal Director of FFDC for
guiding me during my internship.
This study required voluminous primary information which I could not have collected
properly in time without the help of Mr. Sh. Gyanendra Singh, Mr. Vilas, Mr. Rafique
and all the persons in Plant & Quality department also deserves my heartfelt thanks
for their cooperation in helping me understand, participate, and perhaps preparing my
report.
Lastly, I would like to thank Mr. Shakti Vinay Shukla, director of FFDC to give the
opportunity to work in a healthy environment. Besides that, thanks to Mr. Sudhir and
Mr. Manoj for continuous support during internship. Without their sustained support
such an exhaustive study would not have been possible.

CHAPTER 1
1.1 Introduction of the Report
I have worked mainly under the Fragrance & Flavour Creation Department of FFDC
from 16th
December, 2014 – 16th
January, 2015 . My internship program is an
educational requirement of PGDPCM Program under an assigned faculty of PGDPCM
department, V.G. Vaze College, which is a professional degree. PGDPCM students
have to do an internship program as a practical orientation to the workplace where
he/she can amalgamate the traditional hypothetical knowledge with practical work
experience.
1.2 Objectives of the Report
Broad Objectives
� To utilize the experiences gathered during the internship
� To observe the activities and formulation process.
� To formulate different types of fragrance & flavour by trial and error method.
Specific Objectives
� To demonstrate different aspects of the organization.
� The operation and function of FFDC
� To present my observation of different and new raw materials
� To draw a picture about the working procedure in a professional manner.
1.3 Methodology
The data needed to prepare this report has been collected from both primary and
secondary sources.
11 | P a g e
Primary Data Source: Primary data has been collected through unstructured personal
interviews and discussions with officials from FFDC all Department.
Secondary Data Source: The secondary data have been collected through FFDC
official website.
1.4 Limitations
While doing the internship program, I faced some obstacles. These are given
below:-
Internship report is one kind of research work. Research work requires
enormous time and effort. But the time provide for Internship is not enough.
As my working division is fragrance and flavour creation dept, it’s prohibited
to disclose some information. This affects the quality of the report.
Lack of experience of this type project is one of the main constraints of the
study

3.1 Raw Material Extraction:
In FFDC raw materials of perfumery and flavours are extracted by using the following
methods:
Steam Distillation:
In the steam distillation process, the structure of the material being processed has to
be taken into account to ensure the oils can be removed easily during the process; for
example, mosses are generally softened by spraying them with water, woods are often
finely grated, seeds crushed, where as leaves and flowers need no preparations as the
cells containing the oils are thin walled and the oils can be removed very easily.

Tinctures:
A tincture is where a raw material is placed in alcohol and left to macerate. It was the
process used for the animal notes and is still used for materials like vanilla. All that is
needed is alcohol, the raw material and patience, as the oils contained in the raw
material will eventually seep into the alcohol and scent it.
Naturally occurring excretions from trees-known as gum resins, such as myrrh,
benzoin, as frankincense- were traditionally treated by placing them in alcohol to form
tinctures but, today, they are often treated with solvents.

CHAPTER 4
5.0 General Finding
This internship helped me a lot to know about the recent scenario of the flavor
and fragrance industry of India. I have got knowledge about essential oils,
quality assessment and fragrance and flavor creation. By researching, i have got
to know about the challenges that company faces during the period & also learnt
what steps took to mitigate the challenges.
Chapter 5
RECOMMENDATION
After going through the above project work FFDC, I, found, FFDC is trying to help
the flavor and fragrance industry by training unskilled people and help to grab all the
opportunities to be successful in India flavor and fragrance industry. But considering
the present scenario, I would like to draw their attention over some of the following
facts.
Lack of Human Resources.
Management should be more organized.
Should minimize paper work
Focus more on R&D
Library should be more organized, rich with updated books and articles.

CONCLUSION
FFDC is playing a huge as a Government oraganization in India. I was always
interested to know about the essential oils, distillation process, quality control etc of
the company. So it was a great opportunity for me to work at FFDC as an intern. After
1 month of my Internship, I have got to know many facts about manufacturing &
formulation, technical process which were like a hidden treasure for me. In this report,
I tried to describe the all departments functions of FFDC.
