This guy here is one of the best out there! Much respect

That addition of the black pepper was an interesting turn. Trial 3 could almost be a fragrance from Comme de Garcon. 😄

this is the video i needed to see! thank you!

Great video as always. I’ve been working on an oud compo lately too. So this video came at the right time

[vecri]

when you said bergamot, i choked on my drink lol. i would like to give the rose and oud a littlite amber and keep it simple

Thank you! I enjoy these fragrance builders you do as it is not just being creative with aromas, but intuitive problem solving as well; I could almost anticipate while you're talking what might be added next just as you state it! Just as well, considering a material to try that has not been thought of. For instance though anticipating rose just as you did, consider Lauric, Clonal, in traces alongside Dorina); Ajowan and Labdanum might certainly be part of any Oud theme. Honey essence to counter vanilla, that I imagine contributes to the unwanted softness.

I have no idea, but I like you and find your interest in scent fascinating.

Should have experimented with some iris in there! Im so tired of the oud/rose combo. Great video!

I love your videos, i have 3 months watching them and I’ve learned a lot with you, 7 months ago I bought 30 essentials pure oils for perfumery and I have made 15 perfumers and I have 5 favourites that they are really good, today I’ll buy your kit of synthetics because what my perfumes lack is this kind of modern smell, well, I’ve looking for people who teach perfumery en YouTube and there is not that much, at least not people that teach as you do, I’m Spanish speaking and in Spanish is just impossible to find this kind of things, so thanks for your content is of a lot of value, when I have available the money for the course i will buy it!, question, can you do a video showing us most important synthetics for perfumery apart of the kit you are selling?, like the most complex ones, sofisticated, and most use full for luxury perfumes

And other question!!
Your app for formulas it just works with “g” it doesn’t work with “ml”?

Winter is coming, arab people love to wear oud perfumes during this time and its gona be perfect to learn something new again and planning to do my oud mixture this time :)) so excited :))❤

[SwizZLe]

I see you have the book "Nose Dive" such a great resource and fun to read book! I learned alot from it! Thanks for the video? I have some pure oud oils I'll be working with. May try Cashmeran with it at about 2% the cashmeran and maybe 4% oud, dunno its expensive lol...I may justdilute some down to 5% and start from there with it as a standard generic base I'll even add a touch of ambergris...making a tincture of it and be interesting

[TheSimuzz]

Saffron blends really well with Oud fragrance as well. But use gently it's very powerful and just a bit adds a wonderful complexity

[ujjwaldeshpande]

You can also try this accord for indian oudh- labdanum absolute, patcholi, cypriol

[daniyaldaniyal]

Can you recommend me websites or suppliers where i can buy the essential oils or raw materials for making perfumes.

[topnotesfragrance]

Amazing video as always Sam! You put this video out just in time for my shipment of new materials including oud Givco to come tomorrow haha cheers 🤝🤝

[SomeRandomBod]

Thanks Sam, I’m still at the crawling stage of perfumery but this video shud help with a the first step.

The only agar material I have is black agar and I noticed cashmeran in it as well. I had just got to know cashmeran a bit then tried to use black agar a bit later and that was a note I had taken from it. I love cashmeran

[RichardWarmate]

Please I want to ask a question, I appreciate the formulation. Can you make a video of making a perfume, not just the notes formulation.

[tarikkarabay]

I believe it is a really high quality product.

[adriansumner]

What I do is create a atomizing specialty accord, you can always convert drops to grams if you so wish. Which consists of Cedramber, Cistus 10%, Nagarmotha, Guaiacol 5% & Jessemal Jessmonyl. It does turn out very reminiscent of Vietnamese Agrarwood OUD, like to the untrained nose you probably wouldn't notice much difference from the real thing. So it will turn out quite animalic, woody & a little phenolic & floral. It's not going to be quite as strong and in all honesty you don't really want it that strong anyway.
