Finding new market for manufacturers is just another way to expand their business. Products can turned into a new one by changing the label. Telling us that we need such product is a myth designed to play upon our fears. Make-up can enhance our appearance but we don't all look ugly without make-up and can survive quite happily without it. Because not using any make-up does not mean that we are not taking care about our appearance but that's what they us to believe so.
Perfumes were used before to hide unpleasant body odor when deodorants did not exist yet and washing was not the norm. Perfume companies had come up with other ways to convince us to buy it still, by indicating that the use of perfume is status symbol and the famous brands were marketed on the basis of their exclusivity and high prices- only a well off could afford to buy. It is something to use for others to admire you. A way to impress the opposite sex and how easy it was to convinced everyone about this.
