Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the distribution of liquid fragrances, using a device with at least one inlet line (2), for supply of the fragrance to at least one dispenser unit (4), where the supplied fragrance is converted to an aerosol by the action of an electrical charge. A high voltage unit (5), connected to the dispenser unit (4), provides the fragrance with an electrical charge. A controller (6) and at least one stop and adjustment body (3), connected to the controller, serves to block the supply line. The stop and adjustment body (3) and the high voltage unit (5) are operated with a relative timeshift such that the amount of fragrance in the supply line (2), between the stop and adjustment body (3) and the dispenser unit (4), is reduced. The stop and adjustment body (3) is preferably a micropump. The discharge of the fragrance occurs by means of the electrospray technique.
