So I was casually strolling through the store and noticed that " Kulfi " brand of indian style icecream (never tried it before) and i right away thought about Kulfi accord in one of the Tom Fords Fragrances. There were few varieties so i used the golden rule "when in doubt - pick the least...
Hi everyone, was just thinking about this:
Take a simple simple formula:
Bergamot Oil 250 parts
Florhydral 250 parts
Galaxolide 500 parts
Alcohol to dilute to 10% concentration
If we were to spray it on our arm, you would most likely smell the Bergamot Top note first in the first few minutes...
Hi everyone there are 2 questions I would like to understand
1) Why are some materials diluted in DPG and not alcohol? Can I confirm that it is because that specific material does not mix well with alcohol?
2) If I have my materials diluted to 10% but a formula calls for this (as an example)...
Hi everyone,
I know this is a commonly asked question, but I’ve seen a wide range of answers, from "you don’t need to store anything in the fridge" to "just store the citruses, naturals, or aldehydes," and even "store everything containing or derived from terpenes". Given that some materials...
Hello,
At some point in the past few months, I have on occasion bought a few things from Creating Perfumes that were some sort of mix/base. It is not a typical aroma chemical, and the examples I have are called things such as "Very Green Note" and "Caramel Note". At the time, they were on sale...

What is the Birkin of perfume? Perfumes that you can only get if you bought other perfumes. Or perfumes you can only buy if you are a member.
Im interested because I just heard about Le Labo's city fragrances that are only available in certain retail stores in those cities.
If you could have a perfume created for you, what would the pyramid look like?
Feel free to add any other details about your dream perfume - who would be the nose? what would be the name? skin scent or powerhouse?
I recently experimented with making my own shampoo. For sure I want to make the perfume for this shampoo by my own. What would you use to make a "fresh washed hair" smell? It should smell fresh and "clean".
I do not want to spend too much time with that. And I don't want to waste my expensive...
I love the skanky civet-y styrofoam scent of styrax, but I've been finding it difficult to make a styrax-forward scent where the other notes do not overwhelm its IFRA limit (0.64% of the final product). Any advice on how to approach this? Clearwood has been relatively transparent in my...
