TRANSCRIPT (Partial)
------------
Dmitry: No, purple lily, purple water lily, really beautiful.
Ensar: Wow!
Dmitry: Come next day, where are the lilies? I thought that daytime they close and nighttime they open-something like this. So lotus in like the lake but the lily is the river. And I walked and walked in the river and try to get one. Already the water level, I can walk…
Ensar: Up to your chest.
Dmitry: But the water lily is much, more up. So I think how I can do it. I think what can I buy, maybe something you know like for sleep. You put air inside like a mattress, like any idea, but I couldn't find. And I walk in the river every day and there is lily and then there is nothing. Then I walk and I can see a big amount of the flower, but it doesn't have the… (Dmitry makes a motion showing the stem)
Ensar: The stem.
Dmitry: Yeah, since I know the people sell for ten [the stem]…
Ensar: For one lily flower!
Dmitr: For one…no, the flower just throw away. They need just the stem.
Ensar: They only need the stem!
Dmitry: Yes, and I take all the flowers for free. I didn't need to go find or not to swim-nothing. I just find where he throw away and fresh one in morning time when he cut. After one hour, two hours, I come and get, get, get.
Ensar: So you don't need a raft. You don’t need a mattress to go into the water. The work is already done for you.
Dmitry: No, yes, I just clean and make a lot to make the second infusion.
Ensar: So how much yield did you get from the lily as compared to the lotus?

I seriously have no idea why this series of Brother Ensar’s videos not being shown on BBC or Discovery Travel & Living Channel! These videos are like a goldmine. I am sure that future generations are going to thank Brother Ensar and his team for capturing all this information and know-how in these videos and making them available for every perfume lover! God bless us all! By the way, what are the name of the songs being played in the beginning of every video? They are very catchy and playful. If someone knows, please reply. Thanks!

[@ShoaibUsmani]

Well said brother, he is helping out generations n generations

[@RamseytheRam]

Two All Time Greats! 🤌🤌🤌

[@aromafromheaven]

The greatest ppl ever.

[@juny0806]

These 2 masters should make a collaboration together... I think the result would be something extraordinary!!! Thanks Ensar for sharing this with all of us

[@FRAGMENTAL]

What a fascinating conversation. Thank you for sharing.

[@mysterybeta]

This series is groundbreaking in itself. Like distilling the culture into short documentaries. Amazing work!

[@torokferenc4309]

Oud Maximus is my favourite frgrance layered with Aroha Kyaku

[@ChildofGodforevr]

Aweee I love bortnikoff fragrances. Thank you for bringing such beauty to my life

[@mdo5121]

This is like being a fly on the wall listening to two artists...quite exciting

[@gunsandbullets6166]

Cutting the video there was nothing short of criminal torture... 🤣

[@ultrawidegaming7894]

2 of the best perfumers together , I feel a collaboration is near

[@ShoaibUsmani]

My goodness, I feel so lucky to watch and learn from gems like you

[@sultanalghamdi6856]

Mashaa Allah

[@HandsomeSmells]

As-salaam-wa-laykum. Thank you dear brothers for such a lovely video, looking forward to part 2, to understand how feel oud was started. Fascinating to hear of Dmitry's techniques, i've been lucky to try Lee Lawadee and Oud Champi from Feel Oud, both oud oils infused with flowers (fragipani flower & Champaca). Wore Oud Maximus yesterday, and today I am enjoying your Aroha Kyaku oil. So glad you have started to make videos on KZbin, i've been learning so much.

[@rtroyer8963]

What a beautiful interview, I am looking forward to part two! Thank You Both! Peace

[@sydgia01]

Salaam Bro, it is always a pleasure watching these informative videos. Iam a big fan of Dimitry also. Own both Mysterious and Maximus. I can’t wait to hear the story how Dimitry met Russian Adam. Brother Ensar, I also hope NO:3 is in making 😊😊

[@gunmetal2445]

So nice to put a voice to the face 😊

[@noeldean2821]

Awesome. I hope Russian Adam is next

[@riskdesigns]

What an insight thanks brothers !

[@ImranKhan-ub3rb]

Champaka ❤️❤️ And thanks brother to bring him and am waiting some other names And Inshallah will see them MayB

[@matt091681]

Ensar, what a beautiful interview! I learned so much through this video and finally got to see one of my favorite parfumers speak about his perfumes, Mr. Bortnikoff. What an honor...Both of you guys in one room, together was like watching two of the greatest artist speak about their paintings and what it entails to create such Art. It was fasinating to say the least. Ensar, your humbleness, and your drive to learn more, is inspiring as an Artist. I hope you do get that champaca oil from Dimitri and I hope you do make a perfume with Champaca and "Soaked" Agarwood (Perferably Cambodian), One day. ;) I would be the first in line to buy it. I also think thats awesome that your willing to review Dimitri's perfumes such as Vetiver Nocturne. Again, your very humble man, may God continue to bless you in your Artistic journey in this Life My brother. I enjoy these series of videos where we can all learn together. Next, you got to get Russian Adam to say a few words with you on camera. Who cares if hes shy, push him! Hahaha

[@riccarrillo6316]

great to see them together and learning from both, I congratulate designers of niche parfums, both have great creations, greetings from slp mex :)

[@fahadalraisi6649]

As salaamalukam nice Video wonderful collection between Shaykh Ansar and Mr. Dmitry and I like explaining about the fragrance industry and its frankness and I like more in this video when Sheikh Ansar said I love to bring the smell of wood oud directly.thank you

[@hawk_757]

I smelled pink oud, which was my first smell of lotus in perfumery...incredible stuff. Now I need to try blooming lotus flower tea. He is lucky to be surrounded by such amazing natural materials. Just so happens I am sniffing through all of his perfumes at the moment...very impressed. I am just starting to learn that there are so many other types of sandal that I need to familiarize myself with. looking forward to the rest of the interview.

[@korakatar7921]

Amazing video! How did i miss this😊. Thank you!

[@mroz9391]

Wonderful channel! Very informative and fun conversations!

[@dodirivaldo]

Ensar: How did your interest in perfumery start? Dimitry: so I took the lotus... 😂😂

[@rockymalamute5885]

Great video, when is part 2 Ensar?

[@discolo1972]

Oh, here you are, the 2 of you from whom I have every intention of buying my next purchases in some weeks time span..Hainan 2005 and Oud Maximus. Tried the first one, received as a sample when I did order EO nr. 2: the richest aroma I have ever smelled so far. Still got to sample Oud Maximus, was checking on some reviews which are so enthusiastic about it.. Keep going on guys, so glad there’s persons like you around ...

[@realericsoulfly]

Wow, i enjoyed this conversation so much. thank you guys. One love from germany. :-D

[@oscarcastellanos9270]

I love Dimitri Bortnikoff's creations, I believe him to be a prodigy in the perfume business who's craft will only get better with time. Amazing considering he hasn't been making perfumes all that long!

[@olimakafl]

Hello How we get in touch with Dimitri's perfume Does he has website or shop in Russia

[@rezzzasmr]

This is EPIC

[@nietzschesmuse]

Wow Bortnikoff goes through snakes to harvest lotus for his fragrances, that is amazing to find a perfumer that creates his own oils. This is an interesting discussion, it is good to know the process, I love learning the bottles have a soul they are not a mechanic mass production. Ensar Oud has a poetic way of describing his passion that is so cool!

[@guridhesi]

Hilarious interaction lol. 🤣

[@psilocybusmaximis4014]

"I need my people to stop working on oud, we need this sandalwood..." ROFL!!! I need to get out more, that was way to funny.

[@greedg.i.l.m6593]

I’d give up my entire fragrance collection and just keep my Bortnikoff, Areej le dore and Ensar fragrances and attars. None can compare to these top 3 masters. Roja is nothing compared to my favorite perfumers .

[@ammaribrahim5756]

I hope you make a video where you ,Taha and Russian Adam discuss perfumery
