Great video, it's nice to have an in depth discussion of the ins and outs of a specific raw material and some ideas on how to use it! If I may, I might add that one thing I learned about patchouli was the accord with ethyl maltol to make the "gourmand" accord found in the perfume "Angel" by Thierry Mugler. I would recommend anyone who has both raw materials to try adding them together :)

I really struggle with a lot of patchoulis, specifically the clean versions like clearwood and patchouli coeur. They smell great from the bottle but dank and murky on my skin. I recently discovered dark aged patchouli, which is my favourite. Combining with iso e super and ethylene brassylate makes it smell really chocolatey.

I think it's a shame that people are going for squeaky clean patchouli when the dirty ones are so much more fun.

I thought it was just me, I really really dislike Clearwood in the dry down, if I get some on me I keep thinking I smell mildew all day. Even though it’s cleaner, my perception is that the other elements of natural patchouli balance it out in some way

Try patchouli with cocoa absolute. Its probably my favorite combo. Its simple but can be built upon. A little Vanilla materials or amber accord too. So good. You can take it either masculine, feminine, or unisex too.

Same here ... love the smell of Clearwood out of the bottle ... but on skin it is really kind of murky

I absolutely adore Clearwood, but on skin it smells quite different then in the air. I like the kind of sophisticated earthyness it has smelling it out of the bottle.

I think it depends whose skin it it. But yes, it's lovely straight out of the bottle.

I'm going to have to get pistachio oil from Europe...can't find it in the states.

There isn't a pistachio essential oil exactly. I have made a pistachio accord using synthetics. You can get mastic essential oil from the same plant, but it's made from tree gum, not from the nuts. Pistachio nut oil is a carrier oil, like almond oil, not used in perfumery. I hope that helps.

God I love me some patchouli. I could bathe in it. Anything patchouli centric I usually love but my favorite is using it in gourmand creations though. I've never used the clean versions and fractions of it yet though, only the essential oils. I'm excited to try them all out but I already know I'm going to always prefer the dirty earthy ones lol.

Very enjoyable video! Where might I find some 'young patchouli', I need to smell this? I'm obsessed with finding Take Me To The River now, Krystal Fragrance is selling 2ml samples for $25CAD. It's not stocked at Lucky Scent, Indiescents or Perfumology or any of my usual sources. Looks like I may have to make a side trip to London in September on my way to Italy and raid your lab, with your permission of course.

Forgive me if you've already covered this, but would you be able to cover maceration vs maturation vs aging? Thanks so much!
@SarahMcCartney4160
@SarahMcCartney4160 2 жыл бұрын
Aging is leaving something to grow old. With essential oils sometimes it's a good idea (like sandalwood) but mostly it isn't. Maturation is leaving an undiluted fragrance compound to blend on a molecular level, aging until the perfume feels that it's ready to dilute; maceration is leaving the diluted finished fragrance to age and settle into smoothness. In my experience, the more naturals in the formula, the longer they need.

@@SarahMcCartney4160 Thank you! I've found that my own perfumes with vanilla and patchouli tend to get better with a little age on them. I didn't realize that aging before dilution changed things on a molecular level. How interesting! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

My mom always wore straight up patchouli essential oil as perfume. I think my love for it was forced upon me by her from a young age lol. Come to think of it, its the first essential oil I ever encountered I guess. Probably one reason why its my fave. Nostalgia.

You mean just the one material in ethanol? It depends when I need them. Sometimes I used them the same day; I only use them for my tests and samples, not for finished fragrances that I'm going to sell, so they're like my pencil and sketch pad not my best watercolours.
