Aging Perfume - Maturing and Maceration (Why and How Long)

For today's lesson I'm going to answer a few questions about maturation and maceration in this in depth, simplified Perfumery tutorial.

Aging your blend is a timely but crucial component of product development.

With this guide, you'll be able to avoid the possibility of early oxidation while these molecules create bonds with eachother on a molecular scale.

Big help, as I have started purchasing from DUA. all of their fragrances are sent straight after hand mixture. They are entering the client's hand in a very infantile stage. Maceration is a necessity. This gave me all I needed.

ENGINEER SPOTTED! Only a science student can explain the way you did 🫂

[jonathanw]

Ahh you did it! You're awesome as always and keep up the great work.

I did my mixture with alcohol already, so means i will go straight to maceration process?

Do you suggest keeping a newly blended fragnance inside a fridge for a certain period of time?

I need this. My cdnim edt is weak. Its a July 2023 batch and needs more time to macerate

Will keeping a fragrance in its original retail box hamper the process or slow it down even further? I have a perfume that i blind bought and i absolutely did not like it, it as way too powdery for me and the other notes just weren't noticeable to my nose. I had it for a year and i would always spray it once and put it back in its box just to see if i still didn't like it. I then decided to take it out of its box and keep it outside in my room to use as some sort of scent for my linens and sheets. After just a couple of weeks to my surprise one day, i notice that the scent has changed completely! Now i DO smell all the other notes and i really like it. I just noticed this yesterday and I've been spraying the scent on my ever since just to make sure I'm not hallucinating because its been so long I've had this fragrance and only now when its out of its box has it finally changed.

aluminium also reacts - with both bases and acids

Does it help with longevity of the scent and not just how it smells?

[kgosiking]

I just bought a perfume it smells very smooth but its been a bit 1 dimensional, do you think it needs maceration for the other ingredients to shine through? Ive put it back in its box and then put that box in the delivery box it came in then i am gonna leave it under my bed for a week.. what do you think ?

Hi,
I just made a dylan blue clone for myself yesterday but currently only the top notes are prominent, will aging help bring up the middle and base notes too ? I mean the perfume is fading away too soon after the top notes fade away..

Hello, do you think it's ok to let maturate in the glass jam jars type?

[toptrending]

does the steel (metal can) can be used for aging the perfume after adding ethanol

[jcmauric]

Amazing video!

Please, I just bought a new perfume, what will make to it if I put in the fridge and take out, repeating this process for 10 to 20 days?
Thanks!

[tubui]

How long would you suggest to macerate a bottled fragrance for if it not as potent after it has been sprayed?

[Hashmi-iBZ]

Yeah thank you first for beautiful explanation ..but the perfumer always say to mix Distelled water with Alcohol ..for lesser Alcohol smell what about that ..the DM water makes the ethanol smell leser ..can you please elaborate that ..what i cant use water then any other solvent we can mix with batch to reduce the ethnol smell

If i put my fragnace back in its container to sit should i take off the cap?
