Same product

Passifloran spill!

Spilled while diluting Passifloran to 0.001% and 14 hours later my hands and my kitchen still smell like sulfurous passion fruit!

Listed detectable time on a scent strip is 2 hours per Fraterworks….

The 0.001% dilution still smells sulfurous and unpleasant. How low do I need to dilute this stuff?

I’m afraid to add it to formulas due to the sulfur…

Any advice or shared experience would be appreciated.

What do terms like propyl, amyl, dimethyl, ethyl, methyl, acetate, and pentadione mean in materials/chemicals?

For example, what’s the difference between isobutyl quinoline and isopropyl quinoline, or between caramel dione, pentadione, and acetate?

Is there a beginner friendly site or material someone could recommend, where I can learn about this kind of stuff?

Thanks!

Bottle suppliers that ship to Australia?

Hey everyone,

I'm looking to purchase my first batch of bottles.

I found exactly what I need on Stocksmetic but they don't ship to Australia. The other supplier I found (Packamor) also seems to be US shipping only.

I'd rather avoid going through Chinese manufacturers like Alibaba/Feemio etc — most of them have MOQs of 500-1000+ units which doesn't make sense when I only need 30-50 bottles for my first run.

Does anyone know of bottle suppliers (European, US, UK, or ideally Australian) that:

- Ship internationally to Australia

- Have low MOQs (under 100 units)

- Also sell compatible pumps, rings, and caps separately

Any leads would be massively appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Acordes funcionais, sabonete, sabão...

Olá, narizes! Sou iniciante na arte das fragrâncias e gostaria de pedir dicas e sugestões para criar acordes com cheiro de limpeza como sabonetes, lava roupas e amaciante... estou tentando alguns passos com fougeres e cítricos, e percebi a relevância da cumarina nesses tipos de fragrância, porém obtive péssimas experiências com terpenos de laranja e citronelol, pesaram muito... não tenho nenhuma fórmula pronta como guia, estou arriscando. Poderia me ajudar com formulações ou indicação de compostos químicos básicos?

Hedione gone bad?

I’ve bought hedione a month ago, and today when i opened the bottle, i noticed a rotten smell, not strong, but in the first 5-10 minutes it smells like “cheese?”. It gone bad? Or hedione has this smell in the first minutes?

What is this machine?

This instagram user makes hydrosols using this strange device for creating a vacuum and collecting the hydrosols. Anyone have any idea what it’s called and where one can be bought?

Steam vs. Hydro: Is this the peak of White Oud distillation?

There's something magical about how steam distillation preserves the "clean" profile of Aquilaria Sinensis. We managed to get this thick, honey-like consistency from our recent harvest. For the Oud heads here: do you prefer the bright notes of steam distillation or the deep funk of traditional hydro?

​Let's talk about that hang-time!

What materials will I likely run out of first?

I jumped the gun and after putting off ordering materials for months I decided to do it late last night and wasn’t fully thinking things through (not ideal I know) so I’m aware my list may be all over the place and look unprepared - but I was curious if anyone had some guesses on what materials I would likely run out of first while I experiment? I shouldn’t have ordered the 1gs I know - going to stick to 15g+ moving forward for a lot of them and 5g for any that don’t require a lot of material after experimenting and finding my groove.

Osmanthus “Gold” Absolute — 1g / 10% TEC

Juniper Berry Oil, Rectified — 1g

Cade Oil, Rectified — 1g
