Update on my Brand Centauri Perfumes / What's Next?

[@davidk2428]

Intrigued and excited for the sandalwood, petit grain, neroli, orange blossom! 🤔 Sounds divine and quite possibly a suitable summery or late summer blend 🌞

[@FragranceView]

thanks! yes I would say summer / spring

[@LIFEPHORM82]

Great news! Good luck with your project and your new ideas, dear Peter! I'm now going to sleep with one spray of your beautiful "candy" white Antheia ! 😊

[@FragranceView]

Thank you!

[@jeffreytooms2965]

Best of luck with the new scents; it all sounds great! cheers

[@FragranceView]

Thank you

[@patriciat5323]

Oh my goodness Peter! Actually feel excited like a kid on Christmas day! Your fragrances sound absolutely sumptuous. Carina is such a beautiful name and I appreciate the nebula story behind it with the colors of reds. My mouth was actually watering listening! The soapy sandalwood omg what can I say?! Do you have any ballpark time frame when these two will be at lucky scent? Looking forward to the secret name of the sandalwood soapy musky one. Sounds just soo dreamy. The book presentation is very cool. I love it!! The frangipani has my interest too. Ohh I like your sandalwood props very creative! Yayyy my friend 💚

[@FragranceView]

Thanks my friend, hopefully by October... fingers crossed

[@Cornflake81]

Ive been hoping youd do a sandalwood fragrance and sounds amazing since i also own nio and love lindon blossom

[@SDP9019]

Both Carina and the soapy sandalwood one sound absolutely amazing! Rather serendipitously, I've been enjoying a couple of rhubarb and a couple of cherry fragrances recently. I'm super excited to be able to try them this year. I like the current box design but I agree that sliding the insert out every time isn't the most elegant. As an idea - The inside of the new box could have information below the logo, like a bigger version of those little cards you had for your other fragrances. It would be a nice touch to see the story/writeup and the notes when you open the lid to get the bottle out.

[@FragranceView]

Thank you, that's an interesting idea with the inside of the box.. I will see if it will look good, it would have to be done in a way not to make the little cards redundant. Unless I just kept the cards for the sample sets, and info is changed instead to the inner of the box. I'll have to see how it looks visually, if it looks cluttered or not.. but I will experiment with it!

[@justaddlight]

The soapy sandalwood fragrance sounds great! And the Carina pic. 👍 Incidentally I have a couple of sandalwood soaps, pieces of which I hide around the house. 🤫😆 Works better than a diffuser or spraying down the place. Interested to hear those names...

[@patriciat5323]

What a great idea. Do you get your sandalwood soaps on line? I know what you mean about diffusers. I give up on them but I like the idea of scenting the place with soaps. They must be quite strong Smelling?

[@justaddlight]

@@patriciat5323 Moderately strong. But when you microwave them for about 8s a side and cut them into small cubes they get stronger. Some I get online, some at outlets and some I get from a friend who imports them. 🤫 The scent isn't consistent though. It comes in waves and changes with fluctuations in humidity. But the soap does a good job of retaining the fragrance that's for sure.

[@tacticalfart473]

Cant wait for the sandalwood soap! Might be about to buy my sixth bottle from you.

[@FragranceView]

Thanks very much

[@fhoeflich]

The new Centauri perfumes sound good! It's perhaps synergistic that my first orders of Ambrarome and Orcanox arrived on the same day you chose to release a video about novel ambers and mixes with ambergris. I'm a perfumer, so those are my guesses for your new notes to go along with orris root and violet, plus geosmin 0.1% and/or terrasol for the soil; will you confirm? Ambrarome is going to go a long way towards displacing plain Ambroxan for me (which I was trying to find a replacer for); and Orcanox is just a different isomeric mix. So I bet *I* have heard of whatever amber you're using. :-@) Hope you've had the chance to discover Khamrah since the recent Kilian video, and also hope you will not disappear forever to India. I'm good with your Persephone model of back-and-forth between the States and there but would miss your content if you were to vanish to the ashram for good. I do hope that you find what you are looking for. Macerate well and Om Shanti 🐘

[@FragranceView]

I didn't use ambrarome or orcanox, no.. I was using geosmin for the soil, however I am probably going to remove it. I am considering taking it in the direction of using the frangipani instead. I don't think I can vanish for good because money would eventually run out.. I need to have a balance of worldly work and spiritual practise. To quote Nisargadatta Maharaj "You are really in search of yourself." it's funny really, looking for something you can't help but be.. It's the sense of "I" that is looking for something that is the entire problem.

[@fhoeflich]

@@FragranceView Too bad about the geosmin - I like the rain myself, and terrasol summons wet earth; but only you know the story of the perfume at this point. If you're feeling inclined towards sweet fragrant florals, I suggest you look into peony (you can use Peonile if you don't mind synthetics). Beautiful odor, certainly a flower with a calm and tranquil soul if that is possible. Peace

[@TalknReview]

They sound great Pete, will defo be sampling them 💪🏻💪🏻

[@FragranceView]

Thanks Nik

[@nicolasalvarez8716]

I also think that the Sandalwood should be in the white bottle, it will be composed of both, natural and synthetic Sandalwood. So it fits the criteria of the whites such as Altheia

[@FragranceView]

agreed!

[@coelacanth9311]

I like the new box, it seems easier to repurpose than the previous design. I wonder how you picture the packaging (box and bottle including the cap) been used after the perfume has gone? It's so nice that I don't want to throw anything away but what else can you do with it?

[@FragranceView]

The foam insert can be removed.. to make the box empty, so could be used to store odd bits and bats if you wanted. Not much you can do with the bottle sadly, like with most other empty perfume bottles, can keep them as display, or put them in the bottle bank.

[@coelacanth9311]

@@FragranceView I didn't intend any criticism by the way, I was just wondered.

[@FragranceView]

I get it, don't worry

[@shallbee.]

Looking forward to sampling them 🐽

[@FragranceView]

Thank you!

[@cosmin42]

Increase the bottles size , that's a huge minus in my opinion !

[@itskyyuuuu]

Sandalwood soap in the white bottle!?!?

[@FragranceView]

both soap bars and sandalwood, and the florals in it are all pale / white in colour.. it fits into modern day time period, not sure what's wrong with it?

[@itskyyuuuu]

I meant that as in I was excited if it came in the white bottle. I missed it if you said that in the video

[@scenttrials]

Anyone know a site to sample Centauri without $30 shipping? Luckyscent has a small stock.

[@FragranceView]

Luckyscent is my only US stockist I am sorry, no one else officially sells them.. unfortunately even 2ml samples still come under the same dangerous goods shipping rules. I write a discount code for Free Shipping on samples orders over seas, so the cost of shipping is given back on a full bottle purchase.. but still, I appreciate it's a big expense if you don't end up buying a full bottle.

[@amitrastogi7593]

Hi sir I live india my name Amit rastogi can you give sandal .Musk farmila so I obliged to you thanks 🙏

[@FragranceView]

I did create a perfume called Mirabai, with 1960 Indian Sandalwood / musk.. all though I am not able to ship to India from the UK

[@deanboman]

Yeah I prefer the actual photography you've done of the perfumes than the AI images. Funny enough I've just got this video talking about bottle product photography in my feed which was released a couple of hours ago: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sGTJaKOjqtGsl7Msi=0WnxWdkKbtjacBLf

[@FragranceView]

cool, I'll take a look, thanks
