I’m a new fraghead and I made this blend with a slight modifications and I hv to tell you it smells amazing ... thank you so very much for your effort in trying to share your knowledge with beginners like myself ... I’m learning a lot and taking notes 📝
Scentuality I tried not to go too far...I didn’t have iso e super so I used Timbersilk instead, used Taif rose instead of ho leaf & Juniper Berry instead of laurel leaf 😊
Hi, I wanted to try to create your own formula: Simple Masculine Perfume. I wanted to thank you for this formula, I did it exactly as described. It is extremely refreshing, especially for this time of year and it is also very long lasting. I am now letting the formula mature for a couple of weeks before adding the alcohol ethanol for maceration. I find your videos very interesting and educational, thanks again for all the materials you post and best wishes for recovery from Covid. Until next time !
I have questions mostly because things are left out and as a new perfumer, it's insanely frustrating. 1. Were any of those materials diluted? Or was every one neet? 2. As someone new, using materials neet means you can burn thru a lot and i mean a lot of materials in testing. Do you test using dilutions and if so, how do you then scale up to using neet materials(if those were actually neet). 3. Using drops to make a 30ml bottle is one thing but if you make a few more for gift, I find that weight is far quicker and more accurate. Do you use weight when doing larger batches and if so, how do you go from drops to grams?
In this video and every other perfume formula I've posted if a percentage isn't written next to the oil then the oil is not diluted. I use drops in videos because not everyone has scales, but in reality you would weigh the sum total of each individual oil. Weigh your blending beaker before adding the oils. When you've done making your perfume weigh the blending beaker again with the oils inside then subtract the weight of the empty beaker from the weight of the occupied beaker. Now you divide the answer by the volume of your perfume bottle. That answer tells you the perfume percentage if you added the oils to your perfume bottle and filled it up with ethanol.
Thanks so much for these videos, they help so much for people like myself just getting into making our own fragrances. Do you then dilute this blend with alcohol?
Appreciated Ryan! Yes, I actually doubled the formula, put it into a 30ml bottle and filled with ethanol. At this strength, it's definitely an Extrait de Parfum (20% and above), but all you need to do is divide the weight of the oils by the volume of your perfume bottle and the answer will give you a percentage.
Cardamom is just one of those oils that can be used as a heart or a top note because its presence can be detected in both aspects of the perfume. Not all oils fit into just one classification.
I appreciate you teaching people about perfumery. Thats great of you to do that. But there are few things here that are concerning. Firstly, you should never use the same pipette. Thats disastrous for your materials and perfume because of cross contamination. Secondly, cardamon is actually a top note because of its volatility. Cardamon absolute and CO2 are mid notes. Thirdly, Thuja oil is actually a banned oil by IFRA. it has cancerous properties and causes allergic reactions as well as sensitization. If you are only making these for yourself and friends thats perfectly fine. Use whatever material you like. Just be aware of the material and what its properties are and if they are phototoxic. Most essential oils will be and are highly restricted in perfumery. Yes I am a Perfumer. I dont mean to come across as unappreciative. Nice that you are helping the beginners learn. But, should be done the right way to avoid problems later. Cheers.
Hi, I don't take offence at all, but I do say in many of my videos that plastic pipettes are the way to go. I'm just aware that many people use a glass one in the very beginning and I don't want to tell anyone that that is wrong because I think it's important to make things more accessible at first even if the methodology lacks respect for the art, simply because creativity is a relationship and for the best relationships to develop there is a need for comfort and acceptance. With regards to thuja or anything else I use like lilial or lyral etc it's because I don't sell any of my perfumes. My formulas are for my own satisfaction and my appreciation for the Alchemy. I am not a perfumer in terms of having a paid education. I haven't had that privilege. This is the only way I can have an experience with perfume. I represent others like me and those people only, though at the end of the day I'm only speaking for myself. Thank you for your appreciation. It's important to have it.

I'm glad you liked it. Out of curiosity what were your modifications?

@@mohishodari1882 I'll have to try that and see what I think.
Scentuality great, my Taif Rose Otto is 14 drops @10%, clove 2 drops instead of 5 & eucalyptus 2 drops instead of 3... Rest is same
Excellent

Thanks so much, massively appreciate it and for your reply. I'll look forward to learning more from your videos. Take care
@@ryan456c5 You Too!
could you please elaborate more on using cardamom for top vs mid vs base ?
