Hi Sam, I just wanted to thank you for all of your entertaining, educative and inspiring videos. I took the plunge today and ordered (almost) everything I need to start my new hobby. So I can't wait to start making dilutions and learn my materials. Really appreciate all the work you put into your videos, you're a legend. Thanks again and all the best for now, Joe.

Hi Sam, just wanted to say as a hobbies perfumer with 6 months experience I find your channel amazing. So many questions have been answered through your videos. From what are accords and what alcohol to use I’m finding them really helpful. Look forward to watching this video tonight.

One combo I really love is beeswax + flouve + vanilla CO2 + nagarmotha! It makes a really basic beeswax candle accord, with a little bit of smoky wick from the nagarmotha. And you can flesh it out with some labdanum, clearwood, Virginia cedar, and a hint of rectified birch tar

I like how you casually speak about the lavender-frankincense. I helped me understand one important aspect of the scents or perfumes in general - that it flows and evolves from one particular smell to another. I ofc understood it before too but you said it so well that it somehow clicked now. Also I don't like lavender and even in mixes it repulses me. But I think that it is true that it'd make a nice accord, just not for me. If you'd want to make a video about ranking different raw materials into tiers, I would definitely find it funny ;-)

I’m glad that it helped it click for you! And of course, everyone has different tastes so I totally get that. The ranking video sounds like a fun idea, although it would be difficult since professional perfumers always say that no smells are good or bad, just different, waiting for the right context to shine.

If the goal is a clean laundry scent on the white musk accord, I've heard exaltolide and tonalide have about the strongest fresh linen notes. Maybe try adding one or both to the accord?
@sammacer

I don’t think so since to me Exaltolide is quite thick and heavy, whereas tonalide is more animalic, the opposite of clean laundry.

@@sammacerthanks for the reply. Huh, that's weird. I haven't smelled them before but ordered them based on the description of another perfume KZitemr to use in a light floral where they were described as the most heavily scented of the light functional musks. My order hasn't arrived yet but it'll be interesting to smell them. I'm sure I'll find a place for them. 👍

Corn mint as in wild mint? 🌿 What I find interesting too is how Jacques Cavaillier used mandarin, ginger and rosemary to complement the juniper and cypress in creating an evergreen tree effect in L'eau Bleu d'Issey. Wonderfully realistic. Would be interested to get your take on the tomato leaf accord in Calice Becker's What About Adam for Joop!. I think it's just as good as the "green tomato" accord in the opening of Valentino Uomo Acqua. Best part of the fragrance.

I was curious here; I See in the original formula it's 150 parts galaxolide; but it looks like your formula used 150 parts galaxolide 10%; was that an oversight?
@sammacer
Жыл бұрын
I used everything at 10% (except coumarin at 1%) - so the formula is the same just not a pure concentrate. Actually I did shift the numbers slightly since it didn’t add up nicely in the original but the actual difference is negligible, for all practical purposes it’s the same.

hey sam, figured I would get a comment in before they add up. I use your app and I really do love it but I do have some questions, and comments about it. first question: is there a way to change the date of a formula? because every time I copy a formula I've made, to tweak it, it keeps the same date as the previous formula so there is no good way to track the ACTUAL date of my creations unless I also add the date to the title of the formula. also when it comes to imputing IFRA regulations...there are two kinds of regs as I understand it, one is percentage an ingredient can be in a diluted perfume, and the percentage an ingredient can be in a concentrate, but there is no way to differentiate in the app, so do you have any tips? should I just be setting the IFRA %'s for the diluted perfumes (EDT or EDP etc) or for the concentrates?? thank you I love your videos and your app in all other aspects works great and has been super helpful in streamlining my creative process.
@sammacer
Жыл бұрын
Yea you can change the date, it’s in the formula statistics / notes page; press the pie chart in the top bar of the formula. And for the IFRA, it’s always the concentration in the diluted perfume, which is also what the app uses, never concentrate. Hope this helps!
