Perfumer
From BiblePortal Wikipedia
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible [1]
PERFUMER. The Oriental liking for odoriferous substances has always rendered the function of the perfumer an important one. The materials used in Bible times were gums, resins, roots, barks, leaves; and these were variously combined according to the skill and fancy of the perfumer. In Nehemiah 3:8 we read of a guild of perfumers. ‘ Perfumers ’ ought in every instance to be substituted for AV [Note: Authorized Version.] apothecaries as well as for confectionaries of 1 Samuel 8:13 .
Cf. art. Apothecary.
