this video would help us save hundreds dollar of wrong buy material, thanks a LOT man
PLEASE do not stop making videos!!! i see you have slowed down a lot... and I'm sure that you have something like a life going on, so I don't mean to blindly accost you with guilt about it, but this is the first video of yours that I'm watching and I just love the way you talk about the notes and accords... I can tell you have done a lot of hands-on work with these scents and it's just wonderful the way that you share and express that. I am really infatuated with perfumery, and the way that it mimics music how you build a melody; marry that with the fact that smell is the sense that is the most connected to memory? Please, this is a psychology-art. Don't leave us!!! I'm marching on to watch as much of your videos as I can digest!!!! Thank you so much!!
You are amazing I feel like this is a very gatekept hobby and it’s nice to see someone trying to actually inform people with thorough information
🎉🎉😂😮😅😊
Absolutely Love this advice!! you sure dropped some gems!!!!
Juniper is an excellent pure case of eventual pure aldihide, so much lift as each amber lifts a different dry side
Pretty much the touch of both is escalated by the overwhelming amount of nothing. Nobody too evevevy body will do just fine
The last floral should be a der for only 10 bucks
Amber does have a smell. Fossilized amber has a variety of hardness😮😮, but if heated you can smell it and that is also how you can authenticate amber jewelry. Amber resin, carved handles for utensils
Good video bro. I recently began learning what I can in the DIY forum on BN. This video is much appreciated.
I also enjoy basenotes forum now and then :)
@@bkscents7050 Yea. I've seen your posts and it's nice to put a face and an approach to it all. Again, great vid and up until now, it's the most informative overall I've come across. Good job.
Thanks man. Just don't take everything I say too seriously. My approach and thought process can be different from others. Every Perfumer is different and has different approaches to things. There is no right or wrong way....it's almost like an art. The end result and making people happy with the scent is what matters. How you get it to that point is entirely up to you.
Very informative, thank you for this. Feeling inspired to get cracking again!
Great Great beginner's guide, so thorough in all aspects, thank you so much!
So thankful that you made this video 👏
New sub here. Thank you for all this info . I appreciate it so much. ❤️🥰
Everyone's saying thank you for making this video and so much effort.. I would say the same! Thank you so much once again!
I need some help with next stage.. Launching a brand online. Can you guide me please?
Awesome video... hope u keep uploading
Enjoyed
Are these "must-haves" Organic?
Do you have a website that one can go to?
Are u sure Cinnamic Aldehyde are stronger than essential oil? because my cinnamon essential oil is ridicilous strong, like 1 drop fucks an entire 130ml perfume up :D all u will smell is cinnamom :D
Cinnamon Bark essential oil is pretty much 90% cinnamon Aldehyde
WHATS THE ROUGH PRICE FOR ALL OF THIS???
That depends. The video description has the links on where to buy all this stuff. The quantities and volume (ml) of the materials is up to you and how much you want to spend
Beside all great info, i do really very much appreciate all the time and effort you put in this video. Here are hours of recording, scripting your video to have a logic and everybody to understand.
On top of all of these i love the genuine, true knowledge shared without dodge.
I can tell through the lens that you are an amazing person. Wish you all the best!
Thank you! 🙂
Materials I would add to this list as Basics for Men's Cologne Materials: Veramoss (synthetic Oakmoss), Cashmeran (synthetic musk highly used in men's colognes), Aldemone/Precyclemone B, Helional, Alpha Isomethyl Ionone (sometimes called "Gamma Ionone Couer"), Magnolan, Geranium EO, Pink Pepper EO (or CO2 extract), Ginger CO2 extract.
Some "Step-up" Men's Cologne Materials: Sylvamber (similar to Iso E Super, but higher isomer concentration), Hedione HC (High cis, has higher amount of cis isomer), Vetrofix/Cedryl Methyl Ketone, Kephalis, Myrac Aldehyde, Citral, Nerol, Allyl Amyl Glycolate, Farnesol, Birch Tar (rectified) and AmberXtreme.
You're on point 👍
Thanks I definitely was looking for this
Wow i too can read the ingredients list of parfumes 🫣
THANK YOU
Oh wow I thought when an ex boyfriend wrote me a song and sung it to me that it was the best gift ever but to have a guy take the time and actually make a perfume just for me, well that’s just the most beautiful and loving thing anyone can do. I’d treasure it forever. I’ve seen professional perfumers say it sometimes takes them up to a year to create the most perfect perfume for them. That’s awesome
So glad I came across you videos! This is my first video but believe me I’m going to watch them all! As a beginning perfumer I really appreciate you making this content for us! I’m actually flying to Scott’s valley in August to take the 6hr course at perfumers apprentice! I’m so stoked! Anyways thank you so much
I just bought a number of these materials and some random ones I wanted to try. So excited to start blending things together. This was a really useful guide, but it was difficult to pare it down without any real reference point. I ended up getting a couple from each category, then subbing out some of the more expensive stuff... Like tobacco absolute is pretty pricey, so I got hay absolute instead because I always thought a Nicaraguan cigar had a musty hay smell to it. I'd like to see what you'd buy for under 300 dollars material cost, like ultra beginner stuff.
I have hay absolute...and to me it doesnt really smell much like tobacco absolute. it has its purpose...but if you want tobacco alternatives, check out TOBACOROL which smells like a cedar chest that held cigars in them.....or TABANONE which has a spicy tobacco twist
Amazing!! You are the kindest most given Parfumerer ever !!
Thank you so much for this packed and overflowing rafter full of knowledge 🙏🙏🙏
Grateful for this class. Excellent presentation, Like you i live a small house, storage is very important to me also. I have a small back office that i make body butter's and facial lotions. I can easily share the space. I live in Africa and this is going to be great to add to my line of beauty products. thank you for the time you took to teach us beginners. I have a lot to learn. i will take my time!
im from pakistan your vedios is very info & learn tips . Awsome vedio . Keep it up 👍
Half way through this video - this is excellent and exactly what I was looking for! Thank you so much for taking the time to put a video like this together.
Does anyone know where to buy 200 proof - SDA 40-B Ethanol in the Netherlands/ Europe?
Fascination and curiosity on perfume making brought me here, though its not a subject of my profession.
This is the best channel ever i came across to admire and learn good things in perfume making in such clean and crisp way.
Wish i had some time to pursue this art as hobby some day.
May this channel reach 1 million...Insha Allah.
Hey just letting you know your content is way more useful than those with more clicks. Thank you!!
Late to this party but so glad I found the video. I love the way you explain everything. I did get some Cetalox crystals and a little bit of the Ambroxan DL. I added some of each to various perfumes and am in love. I also got some of the perfumers alcohol. Now I am hooked! I plan to experiment with some of the gourmands next. Thank you for the great overview.
Amazing video. Worth watching 3 times with your notebook and pen!
Can’t thank you enough I already have so many things that I bough since perhaps two years ago, and until I learned the dilitoution lesson two or three days ago from this channel I was would never know why most of my creations smell the same. It’s because of these very strong notes that no matter how little I try to put they would still overwhelm or stay present. In fact I now see that investing in a good scale right away is a must I always counted drops This very lesson ( this video ) is super informative you made me see that I can one day create something to be proud of.
I can get some essential oils from the Middle East and North Africa for much less that the prices you mentioned here but I’ll see a way to try and buy me a full kit of your recommenced hand picked choices because I been watching you for a few days now. And I can tell that you put a big effort into choosing these particular ones. So I’ll be taking a Great Leap Forward if only I can get me this whole big kit of today’s lesson
I was just thinking why not store every thing in a dedicated fridge just so I keep my bottles with pipette I just order them yesterday as soon as I realized I must dilute but I’ll be a good student and follow your instructions to the T

love you bro thanks a lot. you earned a loyal subscriber
Amazing video man. Really appreciate your guidance. My brother in law has an extensive (~200) collection of unisex perfumes and he gave me a tour this week. It blew my mind and got me excited about fragrances in general. Being an engineer I love building stuff to a professional level as a hobby.
Question- when studying a demo formula or reformulation formula…how do you know which ones to tweak and which ones to not?
Very informative video. Thanks. You didn’t mention testing strips. I find them very useful to see which ingredients work well together and keep wastage down to a minimum.
Hahha yes, I totally forgot to mention them. A must have for any Perfumers stash....
The best video I found on this channel. Thanks so much 🙏 💓 ☺️ for the easy explanation of this session.
Amazing channel, awesome content! I was just thinking if all these recommend materials could be bought from one single website without having to search here and there! Why don't you make a pack of essentials you recommended here and sell from your website? Just thought!
You can buy all these from Perfumers Apprentice.com
I wouldn't want to open shop and sell Perfumery materials, I simply don't have the warehouse space
I just found this video and I'm glad I did. So much information! I'll need to watch it several times. Question: once I've created my fragrance, can I then use it in a formulation for a lotion, body scrub, or body mist? If so, what percentage would be best? Thank you!
This is a tough one. A formula usually is made specifically for the end product type. Youll find that a formula you made intended for a alcoholic perfume spray may not work so well in a lotion or soap. While you can use the same materials, but youll have to tweak it (the formula) for the intent of the final product. Some materials behave differently in their final end product.
How do I register for your classes?
Hi sir , oh how i love love love your channel so much i absolutely enjoy your videos thank you very much for your kindness
Firstly, thanks so much for the useful info! Your content makes many people happy.
Very interesting for me would be to know a bit about the toxicity of these raw materials while sniffing them nonstop. Say I start experimenting, with no previous knowledge about chemistry or perfumes, and I rely simply on my nose and creativity. So this is a lot of hours of smelling per day for many days, weeks or months. What are the health risks? Thank you very much!
Man, thanks so much for putting this together. I saw that you have newer videos on the same topic, but I just wanted to mention that this answered a lot of the questions many videos on other channels just plain didn't.
I'm building a brand, and once that brand is significantly large I'm going to use that as a platform to launch subsidiary brands like a fragrance one, so this has been really helpful with considering different levels of preparation that'll go into being ready for that once it's time for a launch.
Sorry, but you're wrong. Fossil amber isn't a rock. It's a resin. And it has a very strong smell, when you heat it. There's even a fossil amber essential oil you can buy. I've got both fossil amber as an incense and as an oil.
You are correct "Benzoin" is a resin. However it does hardened into what some would call "rock-like'
There are no words to describe how grateful I am for the work you are doing.. Thank you very much for all the information you share with us..May God reward you with what you deserve..Greetings from Libya
Soon u will get million subscribers
Ha! in my dreams :)
@@bkscents7050 Guess those dreams will become reality! Love your videos! Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugs ~ Alora & Vivian
😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Thanks a lot BK. It was really helpful.
Hope to see more beginner friendly videos.
I plan to run a candle business, so I definitely need to learn how to create perfumes.
How did you end up making fragrances that you knew were safe for candles? I'm trying to find as much information as possible.
I just discovered your channel: you just saved me from buying the wrong materials. Very informative. Thank you ! 😊
Just stopping by to thank you! Learned a lot from your videos When I started perfume making I didn’t know anything or where to buy materials and
I watched this video and bought most of this materials you recommended. Have been learning sence.
This video is a great resource! I'll likely be getting several of your suggestions.
Sidenote: I know this is a 3-year-old video, and you may know this by now, but "allspice" is not just a blend of all the spices. It's its own spice, just like nutmeg or cinnamon, and it just happens to be named Allspice.
Agreed. But to my nose....it's scent profile goes into so many different directions. Lol
Absolutely *loved* this mini crash course! Thank you for being so dedicated to teaching us your gifts 🤎🤎
Great info - thanks. However what about Herbals?
It's lovely of you to share your experience and beginner's resources. But I cannot help l laughing as we forget we are scientists too and that we have lab equipment implements to help get the syrup, resin, slugs out of the bottles and they are called Spatula and weight boats (little trays and shallow dishes that hold the materials) and we combine them with the scientific scale firstly doing the calibration and the weight of each boat, spatula and bottle without the merch. inside it.🌷
🙋(Raising my hand to speak) 🗣Advanced Chemistry, Chemistry Technician, Cosmetic Chemists and Perfumer's Apprentices should benefit by training from scratch first, train the nose, and use ingredients which are not yet synthetic if at all possible.🌹 Making your own is a skill that cannot be lost. 🌹 You will be reading as many books as you possibly can and attending formal classes when possible to get a full understanding of the art as there are so many facets.⚠📛✔❌♻⚗🌲🌹🌾🐋🐳🐿🦌💥🕯🥼⚗🧪🧑🔬👩🔬
🔥🧯📈📝🛒⚧ There is a lot to understand and learn so that you don't overload and burn out on your dream. Then we get into budgets and choosing bottle and labeling them when you do have a perfume made and it's got papers.
This is the most useful video ever. I have really been considering getting into perfumery since I haven't found a scent that has everything I'm looking for. This is exactly what I needed. I was familiar with many of the scents after watching perfumers discuss fragrances, but wasn't sure which would be the best/most common to start with. Thank you so much.
Hi there, agreed with you that it's an expensive hobby 😃. Me too spending money buying materials. And it's not enough, increasing day by day. Loved ur honest feedback. Why I have chosen this hobby is, last time I wanted to gift one of my friend perfume and I have noticed that could not get a decent perfume in my locality. Then I have started researching it. Thanks dear💕
so many people can detect if the parfume used sythetic aroma chemical?, and they say its smell so synthetic what does it means?
Thank you for such a wonderful video. I learnt so much, from the names to the aromas to the blends. Your description is absolutely clear, so much that I could imagine how each essence smells. Appreciate your teaching.
How, as an individual, can I purchase products from Givaudan or Firmenich I can’t tell if I’m missing something or if they just exclusively source to businesses
your explanation is so great. i tried making my own perfume because of your videos.
please make other videos again..
love you..from Indonesia
I love the video; it is very informative and nicely done. I do have a question, though. I heard that diluting materials is recommended before starting to work with them. Do you dilute your materials before you work with them and if so, what is the percentage? Thank you.
But dont you need a chemist background to know what you are doing? while mixing and combining all these diffrenent fluids in different concentrations. Including preservatives etc..
😅
Nice content! What material do I need to make Tom ford level quality? What brand is best for supplies ? I don’t want the fake cologne smell not sue what that smell is but they all smell similar and I don’t want the designer mall fragrance smell which is toilette ? What’s do I need for a parfum?
Thanks a lot...i am the beginner...it so helpful to make perfume...❤ I am from India
@BK Scents do you sell beginner recipes? It would be great if you had starter recipes that are going to make a good base perfume that can then be tweaked and played round with. So like a spicy blend, leather blend, musky blend etc
Can anybody tell me where the best place to buy Perfumer's Alcohol is? (200 proof SDA-40B)
Hi does ISO E SUPER,TIMBERSILK,and AMBROXAN needs to be diluted
Love your videos.. I'm starting out and this is helpful! ❤️
very nice video. Thanks for sharing your experiences. I am from India .
Thanks for sharing. Although I’m not actively pursuing it, this hobby really interests me. I have a question though, I thought ambergris is a whale product? Whale puke to put it indelicately. Can some one shed some light?
I love your video, thank you so much! You are wrong with the amber. It's the sap of a tree, liquidambar orientalis, the insects fell there and were conserved in it. I have real amber resin it smells great.
Allspice is a sweet pepper, Jamaican pepper or pimenta dioica. Not a mix of spices.
If you did this video now would you change anything?
Hello from France! I subscribed to your channel which is a real gold mine. Thank you for all your precious advice! I'm heading towards making scented candles. Would you have any recommendations on what solvent to use in my perfumes to incorporate into my candles? Thank you very much for your attention! Delphine
Sorry, but I don’t make candles so I wouldn’t know which is the correct dilutant to use in that situation.
Wow, thank you so much for the detailed video, wish I saw this when I first started. Super helpful in providing guidance for fragrances. All this as free information!!! You are the Best!
I'm typing this before finishing your video, so forgive me if you answered this already. I'll delete my comment. Who do you trust to create custom designed atomizer?
four years on and this video is a gem! thank you. much less daunting now thanks to you.
I have oud, plenty of it, from where it is originally made, Sylhet, Borolekha to be exact. Want some?
Love how you took the time to break it down and tons of great information, Thanks!
Awesome video! I cant wait to start experimenting! Maybe a straw cleaner would help you with your Pipettes?
First of all, thank you for all the time and effort you've put into sharing your perfumery wisdom! I blame your videos for getting me hooked on this hobby :) Secondly, where I live in Europe they do not sell "perfumer's alcohol" (SDA 40B), however I can find many different kinds of alcohol through a lab-supply company. Since SDA 40B is denatured using toxic chemicals, wouldn't it be better for the skin to use pure food-grade ethanol? I'm finding very mixed opinions online, so I was curious to find out what your take is on this!
hi , i use 99% + grain alcohol and work well
i have a tough time seeking a fragrance oil supplier from grasse they only want to sell their products to big conpanies
Great video, good explanation of content. However I would like to let you know that 'Amber' is actually a fossilized resin from extinct trees much like our pine trees today. Amber can indeed be melted with low heat (about 250 c) and when it is melted certain ambers may give off a very pungent odor many find off-putting, due to the acids contained within.
what a super informative video, please make more video for beginer in perfumery
thank you this is interesting but not for me i want to only use natural and organic components. still insightful though ty
Pls I’m looking for a personal perfume trainer
Can you pls be my trainer🥺🙏
cancer from aldehydes , are they bad? They smell strong but are they ok?
Thank you. Much appreciated. Great video ❤
I don't think I have ever been so grateful to find a channel and creator on TH-cam than today. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I am really excited now to start exploring, experimenting and trying new things and I owe that spark of creation becoming a flame to you today.
There's a couple of oils that I can't use. I'm allergic to pine trees and a couple of others.
Hi question? Are you able to add more then 1 kind of Aldehyde in 1 fragrance ?
Absolutly! I do it all the time. You just have to know which aldehyde combo will be the right suited ones for your fragrance theme. Even just trace amounts of aldehydes work well too!
Dive deep into the the mind of a highly intellectual individual. Many props for the calculator been using it for some time.
Thanks for spreading the scent!
This is amazing information. Thank you so much 💖🙏🏼❤️
Hi how are u. I wanna ask u please can you gave us a recipe essential oils smell like cachareal pour L'Homme for men
what’s the name of the bottling company you said?
Sda 40b 200 proof os very hard to find in the eu. Do you have any alternatives for alcohol?
@35:15 Amber comes from tree resin so I don't think it's a fantasy
Excellent video. Thank you so much for all this detailed information. I learned a lot. Particularly about not storing your materials in the dropper bottles. Going to have to check all of mine now and get the correct caps. Thanks again 👍
bonjour depuis la France ! Je me suis abonnée à votre chaine qui est une véritable mine d'or. Merci pour tous vos précieux conseils ! Je me dirige vers la fabrication de bougies parfumées. Auriez vous des recommandations concernant les solvant à utiliser à mes parfums pour les incorporer à mes bougies ? Merci beaucoup pour votre attention ! Delphine
hi BK what category does vanilla fall under
Definitely a must watch video 🥰
Very informative 👍👍👍
Thanks for this video. Learning a lot about the industry and perfumes.
It's not a pipe-ette it's a pip-ette, there is only on E in the middle. It's not a piepette either
Yo ! You just cost me a lot of money, Buster. Thanks, and it occurred to me that instead of covering a wood table with plastic sheets it's better to use a non-absorbent and scent-free material like Formica. I recently spilled a beaker of Iso E Super on an old varnished table and it ruined the surface. Your videos are a great help for newbies like me.
😂
how can I make a perfume longer lasting?
