Such an interesting formula. I'd NEVER have guessed elderflower absolute. Wild. A question, though: where do you get your bottles for your organ from?

[@RyanParfums]

Get them off of Amazon. Simple 10ml amber glass bottles with cone liner caps.

[@Hayden_hardmoney]

Can’t believe how good you are at this dude. My favorite cologne out there is Adventure Albane Noble. This masculine fragrance reveals a number of notes, including hints of grapefruit, hedione jasmine, patchouli, bay leaves, and oak moss. It would be awesome if you could do this one. I have these ingredients but I don’t know how to use the hedione Jasmine. I ordered Hedione from performers apprentice and have all the other ingredients essential oil but don’t know quite how to put together yet. Any suggestions would be so awesome. Thanks Ryan.

[@user-gg1ty7kt7g]

Wow... youtube algorithm lead me here. I fell in love with aventus back in 2011(or maybe it was 2012). Aventus was eyeopenning perfume. I just wonder how perfume scent changes over time. Still curious how. Your youtube is so super!!

[@RyanParfums]

Thank you! I’m happy you found the channel.

[@christiangemayel]

dare i Say :) love your videos, love the way you express yourself on every note, every scent strip. A quick question though, in the video you said 0.1% Birch but in the Formula it says 1%, which one did you use?

[@RyanParfums]

What I'm mixing in the video uses the published formula as a reference. The published formula is there so that anyone can take it, and can make any batch size they want at varying concentrates. In the video, most of my materials I'm using have been diluted by 90%. So, the Birch Tar 1% is diluted down to 0.1% The Neroli (neat) is diluted to 10%, etc.

[@خلق-الله-بالحق]

Perfume like Creed Aventus🤩🤩🤩

[@tilmonreeves6275]

Great work Ryan. Love the light to highlight the shelves. My favorite formula variation is with a ambrox dl and a few other woody ambers instead of the ambrox super. I am getting in trisalva and ambrenol so I can make my own version of ambrox. Have you experimented with any of the Schiff bases? I am getting one in this week and I will add it to this. Thank you again for the passion and inspiration. I can’t wait to get off work and hit the lab.

[@RyanParfums]

Thank you! The only Schiff Base I've worked with is Aurantiol. Though, I know that others have probably formed in my formulations :-D

[@Goblin1986p]

definitely would use Beta Damascone instead of alpha, and a tiny bit of Allyl Amyl Glycolate. Also 1 ambergris / ambergris essence.

Interesting. This formula is very different from the one on Creative Formulas, which doesn't show any Neroli or Orange Blossom, Ethyl Caprate, Veloutone, and others. Is there a reason you stopped showing the formulas or mentioning the specific amounts you're using?

​@@RyanParfums Ryan I have a question for you, knowing you love to be as educated as you can, have you heard about Natal Plum flowers (Carissa macrocarpa) usage in perfumery? I couldn't even find any kind of extractions done from the plant. The flowers smell like a mix of sweet orange blossoms, jasmine and gardenia. Thank you in advance

[@RyanParfums]

@@Pervique I have heard of these. In fact I smelled them in Hawaii the last time I was there. However, I’m uncertain as to their use in perfumery. It sounds like there are a many similar smelling flowers. Base Notes has an interesting forum thread on Natal Plum you could review.

The formula is in parts by weight. For our purposes, you could assume the amounts are denoted in grams. 👍🏼😊

[@Greentube-ie4ps]

Love from pakistan❤❤

[@husseinabbas3733]

hey Ryan, such an amazing video! I just subscribed and went down a rabbit hole watching your other videos. quick question from a beginner - is this formula safe to be applied directly to skin? or does it need to be diluted? and if so, what do you mix it with for it to be considered eau de parfum? thanks again for such an informative video ☺

[@RyanParfums]

This formula is for the concentrate only (the formula I posed in the show notes). It needs to be diluted. What is classified as an EDP... it's a range of concentrations. For an easy ballpark number, just say 20% concentrate, 80% perfumers alcohol.

[@Snypa_fx]

​@@RyanParfumsif you didn't want to use perfumers alcohol is there anything else that can be used?

[@albertogonzalez01]

New in the channel, Tku for your information. I would love to personally asked for the Carolina Herrera acqua the 2004 version by Carlos Benaim y Rosendo Mateu I would appreciate so much

[@rammul7801]

According to the book, The Ghost Perfumer. Pierre Bourdon perfumed Green Irish Tweed. Silver mountain water. Mellisime Imperial. Erolfa. And his apprentice, like you mentioned, perfumed Aventus.

[@RyanParfums]

Great book!

[@rammul7801]

I believe Creed uses a captive musk.

[@RyanParfums]

I’ve heard the same thing.

[@tdog3954]

So i tested blackcurrant absolute vs 245B and BCA is a bit warmer more berry like and less grassy. bought some 245b just because of this vid and wanted to find out the difference for myself. that said the 245b is way cheaper than the bca i had. great videos btw.

[@RyanParfums]

Good to know. Thank you for sharing!

[@dantheman2907]

I just bought an ISO E Super EDP and currently I struggle to smell all the nuances. I can't really smell the woodiness or amber, but what I do smell is something I can recognise from the Dior Homme 2020 I've been wearing lately which I know has a significant amount in it. By itself though, the ISO E Super gives me a headache. I'm yet to use it for layering and I'm hesitant to do so due to the headache.

[@alexstenning5783]

So many clones of aventus, some more loosely based such as cedar Bois and hacivat, makes me think that in aventus, creed have created a new class of fragrance, like fugere royale being the first fugere and chypre by coty being the first chypre fragrance.

[@RyanParfums]

This is an interesting idea! Makes me think of how the Grosjman accord created a new base for other perfumers to build off of, or how BR540 is doing the same thing today.

[@JesusisLord78]

Nice were do you purchase your extracts please reply thanks

[@usmanalibaig-kp3mt]

plz make video for BDC EDP 2014

Awesome! So what is the total amount of linalyl acetate if it's already present in bergamot and other compounds?

[@RyanParfums]

I’m not sure! And, I don’t really want to do the math on that 😆. But there’s a good bit in there.

[@notapplicable4283]

Do you then add perfumers alcohol to the entire thing afterward to make it a spray perfume?

[@RyanParfums]

Not in this case. The juice I made used pre-diluted materials, i.e. the perfumers alcohol was already added.

Do i have to add distilled water to finalize the formula?

[@RyanParfums]

No. Do not add water to your fragrance.

[@fastrunlogistics3560]

Thank u i was scratching my head, only because when i buy edp fragrances i see that on the ingrediants it says aqua

[@RyanParfums]

I don’t understand that part either. Perhaps it’s because the perfumers alcohol isn’t 100% alcohol?

[@fastrunlogistics3560]

@@RyanParfums makes sense

[@wib6044]

I have read a number of reasons for this, from tempering the alcohol effects on the skin, to balancing evaporation rates, to allowing companies to comply with VOC laws restricting a products alcohol content to 70-75%. They are using 99.9% alcohol (denatured) so it’s not already in the alcohol. Every major fragrance has it in there. I haven’t done any tests to see if it affects performance at all myself.

[@usmanalibaig-kp3mt]

i made 100g, ethyl caparate 1% or 10%, ? and others too?

[@RyanParfums]

I don’t understand the question.

[@usmanalibaig-kp3mt]

for 100g formulation, dillution of alpha damascone will be 1%?

[@GerardBeniamin-r1f]

I have a question how to understand the formula? what are the given amounts exactly? grams?drops? ml? If 1000 is the total, how can I make 10 ml of perfume? and lastly, should I add the alcohol first and then the ingredients or vice versa? thank you in advance for your help

[@RyanParfums]

The formula is written in "parts by weight". For your purposes, you can assume grams. Your other questions indicate a longer conversation is needed, perhaps a bit too long for a comment reply. I'd encourage you to check out Sam Macer's perfumery channel and look for his "basics" videos.

[@wib6044]

Yea Sam has some great technical videos. Take your time, rewatch, and don’t get frustrated. 😜 I don’t make these formulas, but real quick, just to make sure I’m doing this right and to exercise the brain a bit (please correct me any math inclined) It would be easier to do a 10g batch. But just assume a 1 gram formula. The parts will read out on your scale assuming it goes to the milligram. 1.000 is 1 gram. .001 is 1 milligram. You’ll see videos talking about a formula being 20% hedione etc. That means the juice, not including alcohol is 20% and written out as 200 parts out of 1000. So 230 parts would be 23% and weight .230 g 050 parts 5% would read .050g 001 part .1% would read .001g For a small 1 gram batch any material that is in the single digits (1-9 ) for parts would need to be diluted by 10% since it would be impossible to measure .001g on that scale. Take the birch tar 1%. You would further dilute that by taking .090g of alcohol and adding .010g of the 1% birch tar. Then for all those single digit materials (1-9) diluted by 10% you would weight out .010g Doing the 10 gram batch would be easier… 230 parts (23%) = 2.3 grams 050 parts (5%) = .500g 1 part (.1%) = .010g

[@RyanParfums]

All of that math (that I skimmed) looks correct. You're on the right track :-)

[@RyanParfums]

I’m afraid you’d be disappointed. 😂 If you wore Green Irish Tweed or Coolwater at an extraordinary concentration, with no change to the formula itself, your nostrils would burnout! 🔥 I’m half kidding. You may get longer performance, but the short-term molecules would also get a boost, and your nose may simply feel under attack! Increasing the concentration requires a change to the formula, and thus a change to the nature of the fragrance.

[@profound369]

@@RyanParfums why do you have to change the formula with increase in concentration? To meet IFRA standards?

[@RyanParfums]

@@profound369 That would be one reason. Another reason is that a fragrance at 10% concentrate might smell "different" at 20%. A perfect example is Amber Absolute by Tom Ford, perfumed by Christophe Laudemiel. At a 20% concentration, three or four sprays from a bottle was overpowering to a point where I had to wash it off of me. When I dialed it back to 10%, it was much easier to wear.
