NEVER buy 'Fragrance Oils' for perfumery. Buy these instead.

I like Bentonite clay. I have added a little bit of Bentonite clay powder into some of my perfume oil mixes and it seems to make the perfume smell more organic and natural it also makes it safer for the skin. The scent appears even stronger. I believe that the clay powder binds even in powder form to some of the molecules in a way that it makes the molecular structure more complex. More like it occurs in nature. Rudolf Steiner talked about this a lot around 1900 that isolating chemical components out of plants and minerals is removing the molecules from a larger more complex molecular structure or chain and that changes the natural structure where it's no longer balanced. He emphasized that keeping natural molecular structures in their whole and complex form is necessary for our health, consumption and use in general. Same with white sugar for example they have removed the other good things from the sugar and isolated the white sugar or glucose molecules. The result is that white sugar actually docks onto the minerals and other nutrients in the person's body where is actually leaches out the minerals and vital molecules. That's what Steiner was warning us about. We should leave all substances from nature in their whole forms. Regarding chemistry it's impossible to prevent people from experimenting of course and creating new stuff. But as a general rule of thumb I like whole food and whole plant oils. But I will add the clay powder to the artificial scents to make them more whole. I also take hydrated Bentonite clay internally every day which helped me a whole lot. It binds, adsorbs, absorbs anything that is not natural into it's macro molecule and makes it safe.

Great video! I've been seriously pondering whether or not to get into the perfume industry recently. Your video is the first lesson I've learned this week lol.. I would like to sell body oils/perfume oils and thought I was really getting somewhere by buying the cheap fragrance oils... Luckily, I have only purchased two oils to test out before realizing something was completely wrong... "Horrible chemical scent" is not what I was going for. A little research blew my mind (your video confirms the importance of research) and I'm now waiting for a legit oil to be delivered from Mountain Rose Herbs. The real thing is definitely more expensive but absolutely necessary to produce a high quality product. Every dollar counts these days and it's best to spend wisely. Thank you!

I've got a few Robertet natural bases on my PA list. Apple, Orris and Apricot. Another thing bases are good for is if you don't have a reference for how a really expensive natural like Orris butter smells for example. You can buy a really well done base and go off that when you're first starting out to get an idea of what that material might smell like for reference. It might have different nuances compared to the real thing but its close enough. Its also nice to use when formulating and trials instead of ever wasting expensive materials.

I am so sad, I haven't seen you 2 years before, because I also did actually this particular mistake when I started getting deeper in perfumery I am passionate about. Now I am completely different person, than I used to be and I have earned some knowledge how perfume and cosmetic industry works... Very nice and informative vid, as always. You are really helping people understand perfume thing, keep it going.! Cheers and respect.

I just bought fragrance oils, not a lot of them, but I even tested them today and was disappointed, so glad I found your page, tysm!

[abunayyanf]

Thank you so much for sharing this information. I’m passionate about perfumes and have been collecting perfumes for 7 years. i just started a new hobby in perfumery and I made this mistake by buying fragrance oils but they really don’t work well. I’ll start looking for bases and will update this comment with the results 👍🏼

[Synergy]

Can you make a video solely on 100% natural ingredients and the principles on how they should be used, in what form and who to buy them from

[Icerblitz]

This is how I started :). but when I start buying base, AC, absolute and EO its a different ball game. started learning and with in 5 months I was able to create a base accord. And the quality is so much better. and you can control how it evaporates and diffuses.

[bkscents]

I feel for that mistake when I first started out too. I saw "Fragrance oils" was like half the price of the other materials....and was like "oh ill save money and buy these!". Sad Sad mistake when i first started, lol :(

[mainframeonlinegamingtv]

Thanks man. I just got into this and wanted to make more soaps and solid perfumes. I was looking for a specific smell and bought a rum premium fragrance oil. Smells great but i knew it was something fishy about using I wanted to make. To good to be true

[SeedKreations]

i made some fragrance oil mixes. and end up product smelled like victoria secret Angel. lasted long also. an i also mixed some aromachemicals and naturales and made something that smelled like lagerfield Jako. i think its a doble edge sword. it is true that FO arent 100 made for only perfumes, but u can make something pretty good out of it. depends the manufacturer and quality. it depends really. some aromachemicals smell pretty bad, others very faint smell, others alright, others pretty good, some very cheap other very expensive. depends again. perfumery is becoming more of a luxury . women prefer to buy 5 bucks 8oz body mist than spend 100 on an edp. the edp may have better ingredients but the smell is meh, ur paying more for the brand and image than the perfume compound. sad true. plus ifra restrictions, its becoming tighter to make quality perfume without spending a fortune.

Used to wonder why my perfumes always left a terrible soapy drydown... but then I said hey wait a minute, didn't most of these ingredients come from Bramble Berry. (They were gifts.)

Fragrance oils and perfume materials aren’t even comparable, but both are needed for their intended purposes. Fragrance oils are a must in the crafting market (candles, soaps, room sprays, lotions, etc). Perfume bases and accords are a different level of scent making. There’s a luxury aspect to it. - I deleted my first comment because you answered my question in the last minute of this video.

[FulguroGeek]

there is some fragrance oil that smell freaking good... loran oils, P&J Trading's oils both are premieum grades fragrance oils.. with base it seams like i can never find a huge choice of option, , , specially that i would like to create something more candy like smell, i really like the Cola smell... tryed to find a cola base.... never found one anywhere, but fragarnce oil have this scent and smell amazing!

[UnseenUniverse]

Great video, I checked the website of the the companies you mentioned on this video, unfortunately there is no a purchase option. Can you provide a link or instruction on how to order a product from these companies?

[valentino]

Honestly, i really love and appreciate your information/videos so much. Please keep up the good work. =D

[GrapeApe]

Yes…… I’ve done the thing your talking about. Thank you for this information 🙏👍

[Road-Jockey_]

I’m not looking to make a high end perfume designed to smell amazing, so I’m good with using fragrance oils. I’m more looking to create an unpleasant smelling “stay away” spray that mimics the smells of burnt rubber, burnt toast, or pesticides(non-toxic).

[mroie]

what you make you think that you cant used fragrance oil to make a high class scent
it dpend if you know to used them with out that sticky feeling
my that i have made some tha last 25 years

[Scentonme]

I think all the beginners have the same mindset as you said .❤️
