Just saw this and it's a timely video for me. I've been working on a rose accord for about 2 weeks. And it's gone in so many directions that I have almost 50 trials of it. The one I currently like but will continue to iterate (because I'm not super happy with it) works for me in terms of jammy sweet greenness, but not too metallic/'rose oxide-y'. Includes PEA, Peonile, DBCA, citronellol, Undercavertol, Damascone Delta, Cis 3 Hex Acetate and a touch of Rose Givco. I tried your Rose Accord. It was nice but I wanted something that was a little softer, that's why I didn't include the Geraniol or Eugenol. What's missing for me is the honey note I pick up in a Turkish rose oil. And am waiting on Honey Signature to arrive.
Did you get a compliment for the intro music yet? It's quite a banger, too bad you changed it since. 😀 Seriously though, love the work, keep it up! 👍👍👍
One thing I’ve noticed when buying material from sites such as Perfumers Apprentice is that they’ll have these long safety sheets going over the harm some of these can have even if it were only sniffed. I wanted to know is that something you’ve ever worried about or do you think it’s more or less there just to protect the company from any potential trouble with a customer?
All materials that are applied on skin needs to have safety sheets. They do it to protect themselves. But 'how much' of these you use...is up to you. And knowing the right amounts and staying withing IFRA guidelines will keep everyone safe.
Hi glad you did this video. I love rose scents currently wearing jo malone absolute rose. Which is a rose oud with white musk is unreal. Why is it that sometimes when blending with oud. On some scents the oud comes out stronger and on others the rose is stronger? Thanks
I really like Rose Givco and Rose Wardia :) I would like to try Rosalva sometime. Forgive me if it is an odd question, but how do you maintain your health while making perfume? Myself on my journey I find every so often I feel some health impacts that I feel are related to working with perfume. Would you have any suggestions perhaps? Thank you! Really enjoy your videos :)
I've never encountered any health issues with my perfume journey. I just keep it simple and work in a well ventilated room with a window open and a fan, and never touch the raw materials directly with skin. I don't wear rubber gloves or a mock. I just make sure to have a steady hand and be smart about it
@@bkscents7050 Thank you for responding :) I do try to be careful, I never apply anything undiluted to my skin, I do wear gloves as my hands suffer eczema but its more in reference to inhaling I feel, like if I smell the headspace of a concentrate, aroma material or perhaps too many scent strips that headaches/mild chest pains can follow. I understand these are unique to people I just wondered if anyone else feels these from time to time :)
I love Rose Givco and Dorinia SA (the later reminds me the smell of my grandma's house). To me, Dorinia has a "coral crystal" kinda effect. Are you familiar with Phenoxanol/Mefrosol?
Ive had mefrosal before...and it just kinda sat there in my stash never using it. I wasnt super impressed by it...but maybe i need to revisit it and give it more tries
Hey BK, loving all your videos. I've just started my diy fragrance journey, and I've been looking at getting a hot plate stirrer but am not sure about the functionality of it. Do you only use it with bigger batches and once the ethanol is added? Also, would you use it to heat up some of the more viscous oils to make them workable? Otherwise how would you do it normally? Thanks in advance :)
I use mine for a few things. Firstly, it makes a great warmer (if your stirrer has an heat plate) for those materials that solidify in the colder room temperatures, and just a touch of heat for a few minutes will re-liquify them back to a useable draw with a pipette. Ill also use mine with the magnetic stirrer for when i make larger batches of things, either it be for just large bacthes of concentrates only...or even for full perfumes once ethanol has been added. When dealing with small batches of things where you can just pick up the beaker with your hand and swish/swirl it around to mix it...the magnetic stirrer works best for things that are too large to pick up and swish around by hand
www.perfumeoils.com has a decent selection if you want basic "twist on" sprayer bottles. But generally if you want bulk, i always go to alibaba.com and buy direct from the factories in china.
I ordered 5 ml round and 30ml round frosted from them. Neither of them leak, atomizer is ok/good, but the 5ml will evaporate over time. 30ml doesn’t. Overall good quality compared to most of stuff you get on Amazon. Still looking for a bottle that has a really good twist on atomizer in those sizes if anyone has any links or companies they can recommend!
@@bkscents7050 it’s called blush noir ( it’s a black bottle with gold lettering) it says it has : waterlily, peony, coconut water and coral. And I really wanna know what the actual fórmula is.
Sounds like it has aquatic floral materials like Hydrofleur, Florhydral, Floralozone, etc. That’s what I get from “water lily”. For “coconut water” I imagine highly diluted coconut milk materials like Bicyclononalactone, or the octalactones.
I've got rose givco and it's beautiful.

Could you do one like this for water scents please🥺

Good job,have you ever sniffed taif rose otto?
Any synthetic option, please advise.

BK Scents Makes sense. Thank You!
"...even if it were only sniffed". That only applies to sniffing from a barrel for an extended time (like accidents in the lab or warehouse).
What oil would represent best the smell of rose Damascena and rose hip oil? Thank you

How do you get your perfumes to protect

@@bkscents7050 Thank you so much!! I guess I'll be getting myself a hot plated one. Keep up the great work :)
Do you have a video on where to find good quality perfume bottles? They seem to be very hard to find on the internet unless they’re from Amazon.
www.perfumeoils.com has a decent selection if you want basic "twist on" sprayer bottles. But generally if you want bulk, i always go to alibaba.com and buy direct from the factories in china.

What synthetic fragrance can I use to get a washed coral scent? And also if a perfume says it has coconut water what synthetic fragrance is that?
Coconut water?? What fragrance lists it having coconut water? I’m curious....
@@bkscents7050 it’s called blush noir ( it’s a black bottle with gold lettering) it says it has : waterlily, peony, coconut water and coral. And I really wanna know what the actual fórmula is.

I picked up that scale based on your recommendation. I’m having trouble with it drifting. Is this a known issue?
Mine doesn't drift at all. But it does have an accuracy of +/- 0.003g....eo expect it to drift around that value.
It's normal. Let it warm up for 15-30 minutes, based on the instructions I got with mine
Yes they have to warm up. Turn it and let it sit for a bit. Also make sure the ac vent isn’t pointed in your direction or fans are blowing on it.
From where you buy ETHANOL Perfume Alcohol Solution ?
