Perfume Formulation - Autumn Amber (Version 3)

[@pulkitsharma1886]

I am big fan of your work, thanks for giving us so much knowledge, I am a dire hard fan of yours now

[@caseyw2213]

I'd love to see a vid about how you develop your triangle of notes like do you begin building around and formulating the heart and move to base and top? Some sticking point for me is heart and tops. I feel I can create base note accords and formulas that I really love but as I get closer to the top I start losing my objective a bit and it gets muddy. Thank you BK!

[@matthewpaluszak9937]

Wow. Beautiful formula. Thanks for sharing!!

[@yucafries7681]

Great video! Love these updates!!!

[@bkscents7050]

Whats even crazier, I just posted this video 2 days ago....and already I made a new modification to this fragrance that I kinda like! I lowered the "amber accord" a touch, and added in some Symroxane just to see what would happen...and the results were quite pleasant!

[@bkscents7050]

I haven't tried PEA just by itself yet in this blend....but I have experimented with Roseaphen for a lighter air'ier rose note and it's working really well in this blend!

[@andrewh175]

Your Amber accord was just listed by the DEA as illegal because it is as addictive as crack 🙀 But really, I like it! Really good accord. Reminds me of 80s Obsession when it had power.

[@bkscents7050]

you should check out Ambranum (firmenich)! I just got it today....its pretty darn good oriental amber!

[@unvrse]

Hello BK, thank you so much for all your videos! Would you mind giving some hints on the cherry blossom accord?

[@moal5522]

This might be a beginner question, but for example, is 10mg of a material diluted to 10%, the same as 1mg of the same material undiluted at 100%? Or does different dilutions give materials different effects when adding to a blend, even if the quantity is adjusted to match the concentration percentage? Because when replicating formulas, I would sometimes adjust all the material quantities based on 10% dilutions, since I usually have my materials diluted at 10% Thanks in advance!

The magpie just acquired some kephalis and I love it. It's kinda ISO E super ish and vetiverish x

[@FlofiFPV]

Yeah i like it too

[@bkscents7050]

It’s veteverish to me too, pretty clean and very easy to work with!

[@fragranceanatomy5866]

Awesome video

[@bkscents7050]

Thank you for those kind words! 😁

[@fragfanatic5147]

Very interesting formula. Would you mind sharing how did it turn out finally?

[@bkscents7050]

I put it on the backburner for a while to revisit later. At the time, it smelled nice and quite unique. But after putting it away and letting it sit for some time ( a few weeks) and re-sniffing it later after my nose reset....i still think there's room for improvement and ill tackle this one again at another time. Thats the funny thing about making perfumes....in the moment you make them you think they turn out great! But after some time, youll find yourself always wanting to go back and improve upon it...and end up going down a rabbit hole of never really being happy with your creations because you are your own worst critic.

[@radoslavzhechev3639]

Great video, the previous one contained a description of your dilutions and grams added, not just %. Is there an easier way to transfer those % to gr. automatically ( backwards in the calculator) ? Because the green space in the calculator, where we can play is for grams mostly, not %.

[@parheza]

Do you have the link of the previous vídeo?

[@zafarkhan1736]

Can u create natural type sandal perfume ??

[@parheza]

Unfortunately, perfumers doesn't teach that a scent It takes at least 1 year for all of these volatiles to truly mix and finally produce the true effect for which they were created. 99.99% of perfumers don't say that.

[@rikuriku5829]

Hey which ingredients is your cognac accord made of?

[@na3kh461]

nice video , helps lots people like to understand prefumary thanks a lots, what is your stock solution of your ambroxan?. thanks

[@bkscents7050]

I keep my ambroxan both pure (crystals) for large batch formulation, and then a bottle of diluted to 10% in ethanol for tinkering with

Nice Shirt! 😎🔥

Don't underestimate the power ...of the dark side...

[@fabiovalenza1929]

Thank you for your really very interesting video. I didn't understand: how much alcohol should I add to have a 50 ml for example? Maybe I get it. All material corresponds to 15% to make an EDP. The difference will be alcohol. Is that right?

[@bkscents7050]

How much alcohol you add (to make an edp,edt,etc)....depends on not only how much materials you add, but also how much those materials are prediluted already in alcohol. Also, figuring out dilution and and final perfumes concentrates are done by weight (g), not volume (ml)

[@fabiovalenza9811]

@@bkscents7050 Okay, thank you, I think I get it. So, I'm finally going to turn after grams into mL to know exactly how much volume I have? Thank you very much, you are kind to explain to me.

[@Mzaros1]

I love your videos! To compose Ambar's simple (concentrated) accord: Vanilla, Labdano, Benzoin ... I only have Vanillin (crystals) ... what would be the proportions? Solvent, DPG? Sorry for my bad English. I'm from Brazil.

[@bkscents7050]

Start with a simple one like equal parts s benzoin and labdanum....and less vanillin. So try something like a formula in parts (totaling 100) like 40/40 (benzoin and labdanum) and 20 vanillin. Then adjust it to taste

[@Mzaros1]

@@bkscents7050 I am very happy with your tips! For me, who is starting, it is a precious thing to follow you, because you really pass on very relevant information. Thank you very much!

[@fragfanatic5147]

@BK Scents Hey BK, I put this formula together. The only thing I didn't have was Rose Ultimate Extract, so I made accord that may mimic RUE from its description by IFF. I like the final outcome. It only lacks projection and longevity. Any advice?

[@na3kh461]

for example 1g of water = 1 ml of water in you formulation when you say 1000mg that equal to 1 g then that equal 1 ml ???.

[@bkscents7050]

No....weight and volume are not the same. 1g of a substance does not mean it's 1ml of volume space. If you were to grab 15ml volume of galaxolide....and weight it...it will not equal 15g weight that's for sure

[@na3kh461]

the precetage you projecting is by w/w or by v/v to final 1000????

[@bkscents7050]

A formula is by "parts". It's not weight or volume. Some even look at it as a way of percentage. Instead of using 1,000 ....drop it by 1 digit and use it by parts per hundred and just use that as a form of percentage.
