Any chance you can make a video to cover the most common beginner mistakes? Also, any chance you can cover what's required to sell a perfume legally? Thanks to your instructions and spreadsheet, I finally made a fragrance Im really happy with, but I don't know what to do with it now. Thanks so much for all your effort and detailed explanations. It is really great.
That video youre asking for would be 3+ hours long. Selling legally depends where you live as well, eu has different laws than the us, in the us lilial isnt "banned" and can still be used. If you would like to know the legal aspect, id talk to a business liability and trademark attorney. Also look into how much it costs to put a fragrance into production, it can cost upwards of $1000's to $50,000+....packaging, marketing, materials, bottles, caps, graphic art, fragrance concentrate manufacturing and production. After all that you still have logistics to deal with, after the concentrate is produced where do they send it to be bottled, after bottling, where does it get packaged, after packaging where does it get sent for distribution, where is it being distributed nd by whom? How much? How often? Theres alot more to it, than mixing up a formula and throwing it in a bottle and box.
Great video mate. Appreciate the info and the free form ramble. One of the last things you said is one of the things I love about this art form, that we are constantly learning. I wake up early every morning to work on blends and sometimes to just smell materials I haven’t smelled in a while. If I ever think I got it all figured out and know it all (in general not just perfumery) that’s when I’m fucked. Thanx again BK
He is alive and have new haircut 😁 We missed you 😊
I had to try something "edgy" in my old age, lol
@@bkscents7050 It's good 👍
I appreciate all of your videos... I've been watching on and off for over a year now and I'm finally about to start my journey on making perfume
Yessss!!! I'm so happy you're back. I need these videos. They've helped me so much.
Great video! You mentioned that you'd need to go through 50 batches to show the process around 26:15. Is it an idea to do a review of a formula you've created and look at each trial and and the thought process, findings etc. Behind each? Maybe summarize a few trials together for video length.
We could see how the formula gets shaped from rough to finer and finer
I'm just starting my journey into novice perfumery; I want to give it my all and this video helped me a lot. Thank you for your work and content.
I am very grateful for all the knowledge you share on the channel.
Greetings from Chile.
Great video, please keep them coming! You got some guns since the last time I watched!
Thanks man your videos are so educational especially for me as a beginner and you made me laugh keep up the good job !
Hey BK. Love your videos. But I would caveat what you said about average dosage. The Unguentarius website has a wonderful material statistics tool, and the Perfumers World website offers a perfumery material range on their website.
I'd say that while it's true that there is no universal single dosage percentage for a material that applies in all contexts (like freshie, gourmand, chypre and fougere) every time, you can state that there are some good initial values you can find to try out. And then tweak the amounts after making an initial test blend. And that can really help.
It's better to have a starting point to try, than to have no reference point at all. Because if people are hesitant to try, giving them assurance that here's a fairly safe starting point, and letting them know it's normal if your first blend isn't perfect, that helps novices in this hobby a ton!
Yeahhhh to some degree. That website has statistics yes.....but how much is the data pool that it's pulling from to give statistics? For a given material does it have stats on it's dosage on 100+ fragrances so we know the stats have enough data to give accurate assumptions? What would happen if the data pool of a "average usage" of a single material was only from 3 instances that ranged from .01% to 3%.....would that "average usage" be a good statistic to base line from? Probably not.
While yes new comers would like some sort of guideline or starting point, that I get and maybe I should do a video on this.
@@bkscents7050 oh, they have that. Check the Unguentarius material statistics tool. Just Google it, since sharing non-Google links sometimes doesn't work in the comments section. There's several materials they add those kinds of caveats for little information or no information. :)
Great video BK! Rambling or not just keep sharing your knowledge man, that’s awesome.
Love watching your videos. You speak with such passion and love.
He truly does
Oh you are back, missing your info the most, I think I am the only one from Pakistan who loves your channel and I wish I am in US and can meet you in person, anyways thanks a lot for all the info, the biggest problem here in Pakistan is, we cannot find materials, still I have few to play with and have those 3 which are the skeleton of a perfume and few woody and amber materials, wish you a v good luck and God bless you.
I had an issue with green mandarin also, but it was with the same supplier who had a good rep. I ordered a sample and it was lovely. I ordered a larger size. The larger size wasn't the same aroma or color. They had no idea where that green mandarin sample came from. I never ordered from them again.
Thank you this was a brilliant talk
For top quality naturals you could also use Hermitage in Italy. Their Lemon, Lime and Bergamot Oils are some of the best i have smelled so far. But also expensive.
I'll have to give them a looksie!
They're closed now unfortunately for a couple months, but definitely top quality materials!
I'm from libya, and It's really not easy to start the journey .. specially with the shipping and etc.. so every little detail, every mistake i make when choosing the materials that i will start with will effect the dream .. so i wanna know if the materials that you mentioned in the first video will be okay to start or do i need to add more to the list? ..and i just wanna say u have no idea how grateful I'm for what u share, thanks man .. god bless you..
Go to pell wall, they have 5 kits 0f the 100 essential ac's to begin with, they jave them broken down into five kits....biy them in order, or you can look at the ac's each kit contains and purchase the ac's separately elsewhere if they are cheaper.
its been long time bro glad to see you again with new video, my method is i try single EO I 3 pieces of wool one in frig one in room temperature one in heat at the window ill take note for each one “ heat can give you a good imagination for the performance of EO “
wish you the best bro 👍🏼
The legend returns!!! Welcome back BKkorn, great video as always man!!!
😁
Super Video! Thanks
Please do one on dyes/coloring agents. Are there enough naturals colorants to not need synthetic ones?
Also please comment on this new trend of single essential oil sprays. People compare it to single malt scotch!😃
40:00 no actually you don't, uts extremely useful and simple to understand. This has really helped me a lot! Please make more videos as much as possible 🙏. Thanks
Welcome back! I have missed you so much.😍
thank you for sharing your knowledge and experiences.... excellent video, much appreciate it
I just bought some dirt cheap iris pallida absolute. They had big list of certs and told me the product was tested to have 10-12% irones. Coulden't resist so I took the shot.
Love your videos! It appears John Steele’s Lifetree Aromatix site no longer exists. Any idea if he still sells his oil elsewhere? Thanks for all the great content and info!!
Yay, you’re back! Love to see it!
Some very insightful information, as a novice to this hobby I can say you definitely provided some great tips. Hopefully, I will be able to be make slight better formulations now haha.
First viewer from Zimbabwe. .it's been a while for sure . Thank you .
Fan of this new look 😮😍
Great video, that’s so much useful information that can only be gained through years of experience. Happy New Year 🎆
I can listen for hours. Do you have a podcast?
Welcome back,thanx for the vdo..... 👍
Not confusing! Good stuff.
I found this so insightful! Wow
❤ cunoașteți materialul nasul e cel mai principal fac de ceva timp parfumuri cam de vreo 8 -9 ani și încă învăț lucrez extrem de mult de fapt baza , cu uleiuri esențiale cu naturale da sunt de acord cu tot ce ai spus 👍🥰 salut și noroc în munca ta bravo. mai puțin este cu siguranță mai mult
Sir keep upload ur videos there are no one other like u
Yay I'm so excited
Thanks a lot, very useful, talk about your experiences
Thanks bro!
Thanks For your Sharing👍
Lol, odd that you say hit or miss with liberty, i just got lavender mailette, great stuff....their haitian vetiver though, its ok, not great though. So can attest to this out look.
Hi BK, good morning sir. Do i use essential oil, like what they used essential oils in humidifier? Thank you BK I really appreciate your perfume education. ❤
That was informative. I did learn a few things that confused me while I worked on making my own formula. I have a request: Please make a video about making simple fragrances by using only essential oils. And don't forget to tag me :p I am requesting for essential oils because they are quite easy to get than the chemical materials. I am from Pakistan. Getting chemicals is difficult in smaller quantities. And affording them in large quantity is not pocket friendly. Thanks in advance.
Welcome back ☺️☺️☺️
Thank You!! What is your opinion of Bath and Body Works fragrance. I'm trying to understand the appeal and why it's so popular. I'm new to the fragrance game and want the best less toxic substance penetrating my skin. Appreciate you sharing your knowledge.
Question. What is the best scale for perfumery? Also outside of a calculated and controlled trial and error process is there any other directions I can take to effeciently make perfume ?
What do you think about Real Fossil Amber by Eden Botanicals, have you tried it? im tempted to have an actual real amber material :)
Thank you sir .
Can you review the discontinued icon of Gucci / GUCCI PUER HOMME 2003 /
Is it possible to 100% copy a perfume?? Like the old iconic GUCCI pure home 2003
By the way,it’s dam good RUclipss you make … many thanks.
anyone knows which website he used for the oils?
Can you do a video about agarwood accord making?
Can someone tell mw which supplier he is referring to with the green mandarin being piffy? Have been looking around to buy aome and after seeing this dont wanna make a bad choice
Hello. Thank you for your very good videos, I just want to start perfume making. I have a distillation machine and I have extracted a large number of essential oils myself, my question is, are these natural essential oils suitable for making perfume or should there be a change in them?
No yea they should work. Russian Adam and Ensar Oud do a lot of their own distillations. Give it a try and see how they come out.
Any place you can recommend where I can get henna absolute or co2
👍
Are you from Croatian by any chance or some type of eastern European. You look like many ppl I know from that region of the world
Nice video, keep it up...
Love and support ❤️
How to connect with you need to discuss something regarding this topic.
what is John Steele's website? I can't find a working URL for lifetree aromatix. Thanks!
They do not have a website...you have to email them at info@lifetreearomatix.com and they will ema you back a pricing file with all their offerings and prices
@@bkscents7050 got it, thank you!
My formula is 40% amber Xtreme at 100% did I do something wrong?
Kidding btw 😂
Bahhahahha.....I was gonna say....holy SH#T!
I don't know if I heard it correctly, but the second-best company you mentioned is Eating Botanicals? I'm not able to find them on Google. Where do they sell their products? Thanks!
Lol....sorry. it's Eden Botanicals
