I love experimenting with layering. Favorite summer combo is Versace Man Eau Fraiche and Happy for men by Clinique. Currently wearing Bowling Green and Anucci. 90% BG and 10% Anucci.
❤❤❤ good to see you
Dope stuff. I did the same thing with jean paul gaultier le male le parfum, mixed it 50/50 with armani code profumo, the sweetnes from armani code makes it more enjoyable to wear le male le parfum for me personally, makes it less agressive, more sweet. XD After macerating it also got very good still, sometimes maceration changes too much the mixing and create a totally new fragrance profile, so i recommend also maceration in some cases! But you gotta balance it correctly, if not it'll change to something unwanted lol.
the idea of giving it time is smart. I will check back in on these and see how it goes!
@@joesmellsgood i also recommend in and out of freezer maceration process (below 0º celsius), its something that can be done even with brand new fragrances, cause maceration process takes 1-3 months for its full effect, so to cut expenses they dont go all the time in. Thats why theres huge difference in strength in some fragrances, like Dior elixir to other fragrances, ofc they use super refined ingredients so its gonna be a nother step, but doing at least 1 month maceration in and out of freezer proved very successiful for me. Mostly with the very weak oil based fragrances (eau de toilette or eau de parfum)
On the stronger oil based its not a huge gain tho, but i got time on skin improved a bit, with azzaro wanted by night for example XD stuff was already pretty strong but improved like 5% so its a win.
Ofc this same thing goes to mixed fragrances, if you start already by doing it in 10 days you have an idea how the fragrance will be like if you leave it alone in a month, its all about the temperature chock, some say that 5 days inside freezer and 1 out its better, some say that in and out its better, but in the theory which says chock its the main factor, i tend to go in and out, it seems to work better for most fragrances. Cheers mate.
@@p1nkboy984 I've heard people talk about this method before. I'm curious how/why that would work. Wouldn't lowering the temperature make the blending of materials more challenging? Heat is obviously bad, but I've always wondered how they can macerate in the cold. Thanks for the tip!
@@joesmellsgood it works cause its a must do when blending ingredients, generally, this is for a deeper blending of the ingredients, ive done myself 1-2 years some fragrances from scratch, and i can tell that not doing the maceration below 0ºC in and out (any time type method) the fragrances get not as strong, even if you let it sit over some months, it does not give the same result.
Im not sure 100% on how it works as in physics or chemistry would explain, but with the amount i've studied and researched and tested myself, i can say that for sure, the temperature shock its the main factor.
I tested myself doing 3 type periods of in and out of freezer, (freezer to ambient temperature for 24h each)
4 days in freezer 1 out - 10 days in freezer 1 out - 1 day in freezer 1 out -
With in and out method (1 day in 1 out), applies the only reason why the whole thing works, which is temperature shock, it somehow makes the mixture blends more and more, the more time you do the better. The other methods works, but 1 in and 1 out its best, i tested myself and guarantee it. Except after 3 months, after that theres no further progress.
@@joesmellsgood also the progress its mostly inside the 1-2 month period, so doing after that mostly aint going to give much more development. BUT between buying a fragrance and never doing maceration on it with any type of period technique for at least 1 month its a huge difference.
I think this only would be an exception for very expensive fragrances, like de marly fragrances, and some other super potent fragrances, they most probably already had done the 100% the maceration process to its limit. So just enjoy its the option :D
But in the case of mixing different fragrances then its a must, its very efficient in my opinion. When we mix fragrances a lot of times they end up not blending that well, and decrease perfomance, at least i found that myself with a few ive done.
Great one Joe,dua do a nice mix of the one and mugler ultra zest, can remember the name, it's in a pile somewhere.
@@johnadair4693 I could see that habit a similar effect. I think The One is just asking for citrus
Now I have the Taylor Swift song "Alchemy" stuck in my head 😂 who are we to fight the alchemy 🎶🎵🎶
Love the photos you take!
