Musk is like garlic in a food. You can't like garlic on its own. But you can tell the difference of food with and without garlic. Garlic gives depth, layers, and blends together different flavors in your food.

Thanks Sam. Interesting thing with helvetolide that I’ve noticed is that it is perceived from top note to base note in a formula. One of the few musks that can do that. Might want to add it to your arsenal of aroma chemicals😉

It’s interesting how we can’t perceive musk smell, just like we can’t perceive sub-frequencies with large waveforms in music, and both can be used as a bed for other elements.

Another informative presentation. Nice Hx of Musks. This kind of background information makes for a well-rounded perfumer. You could make your dilutions in DPG so as to avoid waiting for the EtOH to evaporate. Also, I hope that the substance glowing in the jar next to you is not Kryptonite

Hello Sam Good afternoon Nitromusks have nothing to do with all other types of musks, Musk Xylol and Musk Ketone, for me they smell like soft florals, while Musk Ambrette has a stronger smell that leaves an almost fishy smell on the skin, that's the that I smell. I know about 20 types of Musks from Galaxolide, Ethylene Brassilate, Helvetolide, Velvione, Shangralide, Tonquitone, Habanolide, Muscone, Iso Muscone, Exaltone, Etaltenone, Traseolide, Aldron, Animalis, Globalone, Globalide, Apellelide, etc., etc. none of these products have anything to do with Nitro Musks. That's why it's impossible that Perfumes like Chanel 5, Aramis and others manage to keep the same smell since Musk Xilol and Musk Ambrete were banned and if we add to that the natural Oakmoss that has nothing to do with the substitutes, these perfumes they are clumsy copies of the originals, which I remember well from the smell and are very different from current products, and much less durable in smell. IFRA killed the great perfumes, without preventing the continued existence of products that are perhaps more dangerous than the "terrible" nitromusks. Best regards.

@@erich1394 Hello The difference between Musk Xylene and Musk Ketone is minimal, the difference is greater between these two nitromusks and Musk Ambrette, where there is a big difference. I can't compare the smell of nitromusks with other types of musks, at least that I own. I think that Musk Ketone and Musk Xýlene are more for the effect than the smell, I can hardly smell them on the scent strip.

Should I dilute Top Notes too or because of their weak performance and higher volatility compared to Mid and Bottom Notes they shouldn’t be diluted? 2. I am having a trouble with dissolving Musk Ketone. I am trying to get a 10% solution but it doesn’t dissolve. I’ve already tried Alcohol, DPG, IPM.
