Which is more recommended to use for Reed diffusers. fine alcohol or base Reed diffuser . I’m totally confused between this options. I use perfumery alcohol but it’s expensive and not only that I just wanna do the way it’s supposed to be. NEED HELP HERE PLEASE 🙏🏼 ❤❤
I've read online that you're not supposed to use synthetics in a Reed diffuser (only EOs and Frangrace oils), which makes no sense to me at all. Is that true? If so then why?
Nice content, Sam. Do you think is it possible to make a difusor just with iso e super (my fiancée loves it’s smell). If is it possible, what would be the concentration of it, please ? Thank you so much!
Thanks your experience , i hear about its important the quality of reeds (rattan bambu,,,) measure of reeds and even change Up/dowm reeds each 3 days And neck bottle best narrow possible Excuse my english 🙏
I would be interested in follow up videos as you work through your experiments. I have some lower quality materials that have no practical purpose. Perhaps this is the answer to recover those costs.
I tried to refresh my reed diffuser with my perfume supplies, NOPE, not good. Thanks for this info. I would like to hear how your experiments go with a new product offering!
Super video! I need to clear something up as a relative noob. In the world of perfumery, what is a Fragrance Oil? If we look at eau de cologne, eau de toilette, and eau de parfum as the results of mixing quality materials with "carriers", then what is an FO, and what is the "carrier" within it? Thanks a million!!!
Just subscribed! Do you think paper air refreshers (for car example) are similiar to reed diffusers regarding projection & evaporation? If not, what are your thoughts on paper air refresheners compared to perfume. Would love to see a video about this one day!
I just re-watched this vide for a second time haha. Would be really amazing to see you make a video breaking down scent profiles between different products. Comparing for example the STRUCTURE of perfume to a room spray, candle, and/or cosmetics like creams or shower gels. Even in just the general sense!
Hi Sam! I found you while looking for videos on how to create Reed diffusers; your content is really useful to watch, so thank you for that! I wanted to ask you in regard to the IFRA limits of for example sandalwood is at 50% for 10A, is this 50% of the 25% of fragrance used or could I only use Sandalwood since it’s 50% limit?? I hope I am making sense! Also, why is there such a difference between limits, with some being in the lowest percentages like Oud at 4.16% and others like Patchouli at 100%? All being fragrance oils. I am looking forward to your response! Keep up with the amazing content!
10a % mean how much you can put max with this fragrance oil. For example if you have 100ml bottle maximum you can put 50ml or lower for that specific fragrance oil.

Hello, has anyone any idea why for example i have made 20% fragrance oil with augeo multi clean base diffuser it performed once ok and other time almost no smell(same fragrance, same fiber reeds, bottle just diffirent place i placed it). Also i dont get stronger scent throw if i make 20% fragrance load vs 15%, or if i put more reeds. I must do something wrong? Im struggling with augeo base tbh.
What is in the base that you use, did you try different bases or make your own. I tried grapeseed oil because somewhere online said any of these X number of oils would work. Turns out it's not very good. I have heard dipropaline glycol or glycerine mixed with alcohol works well but what did your experiments reveal? What do commercial brands use and is that the best or just the cheapest. Edit. Sorry you are still using Augeo, what's in that?
A lot of commercial brands use DPG but now augeo is becoming much more widespread. You can experiment to find what’s best for you. Grapeseed oil is not suitable.
Hi sam please help me 🙏 if an aromatic chemical in its pure version has to be diluted in 1% and I buy a version that comes diluted in 10% in how many percent do I have to dilute?
Thank you!! Exactly along the lines I was thinking. I heard pine and fir balsam abs before but I really prefer black spruce EO. I don’t have proper fir balsam abs but I do have similar things. Sadly they didn’t diffuse properly in my diffuser tests since they’re more base notes - I wonder if the real stuff is the same 😒
@@sammacer I don't know...but perhaps the fir/pine/spruce resins are too gloopy to diffuse well via reeds? I think that a 'Christmas' smell would be very dependent on what the consumer smelled as a child; did their parents buy a Scotch pine or a balsam fir tree? Did someone bake with cinnamon, filling the home with seasonal scent? Did you eat goose or ham for Christmas dinner? If Grandmother always visited on Christmas, and always wore the same fragrance, that would become a purely personal association. Then there's the whole modern idea of 'holiday' scents, to which we've all been exposed, which may blur memories.

I have noticed that when you put essential oils into Augeo it dampens the aroma of essential oils significantly. This is as compared to a dilution using a natural base oil. I would imagine it also dampens the smell as compared to an equal dilution of alcohol, I would expect the volatility of the ethanol Vs the Augeo would be the difference. But this is confusing to me that they smell less in Augeo than just an oil. What are your thoughts on this? Also now I have a blend of essential oils I like, what synthetics should I buy to improve the scent throw and performance?
I haven’t really tested augeo against other bases so can’t comment unfortunately! And I recommend top notes: the possibilities are really endless so I couldn’t list them all here :)
I am also interested in learning about it, but I very much appreciate the chemistry involved in the process

I'm making my own reed diffusers & would be looking forward to more videos on them 😊😊
I thoroughly enjoyed this video! Just clicked the like button and subscribed - looking forward to more great content from your channel!
Thank you!
You could do a customer reactions vlog at the market.
Yeah, not sure how people would feel about being filmed though
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS! Thanks so much! Keep them coming please...

Yes please do some more on this!! and if you crack musk / vanilla notes in diffusers...brilliant thankyou
Will do - for vanilla, a very small amount of ethyl vanillin seems to work fine from my tests so far
Im using musk for one of my reed diffuser and its true thats not climb easly up to reed sticks.
Nice content, Sam. Do you think is it possible to make a difusor just with iso e super (my fiancée loves it’s smell). If is it possible, what would be the concentration of it, please ?

היי, תודה על הסרטון.
אם יש לי צנצנת של 100 גרם,
כמה אחוז של אלכוהול ?
כמה אחוז של אמן אתרי ?
וכמה אחוז לתמצית ריח ?
תודה..
Nice video, Sam. Have you ever tried to make room sprays? I would love to hear your thoughts about that!
Nope - I’m not too sure what the product base would be
Thanks your experience , i hear about its important the quality of reeds (rattan bambu,,,) measure of reeds and even change Up/dowm reeds each 3 days
And neck bottle best narrow possible
Excuse my english 🙏
Yes, those things are all true :)
Can we use this reed diffuser for waterless cold air HVAC system diffuser?
How about car hanging diffuser you can also make?
This is why I came here! 😂
When comes out the Android version of the app? Portugal is waiting for it ❤

Sam, Im using Denatured alcohol (75-80%) and 20-25% Fragrance oil and it works fine. Do you have any other tips?
Nope
Hi
Can you share which brand of denature you’re using please? I use perfume alcohol but it’s a little pricey . Thank you
Thought about this too. Wax melts are another one, that seem less intensive than candles.
Yep me too - I wonder how much of a problem wax compatibility is though

Hey Sam how are you, is the solvent you used MMB
I used Augeo
Can you tell us why not to use alcohol in Reed diffuser?
They would diffuse out too quickly.
Hi I found nice content. To start business, Is it required to be university graduate in chemical field ?
Thanks - and no, it’s not!
Interesting, I read that you're not supposed to use aroma chemicals in reed diffusers, only fragrance oils and essential oils?
Well fragrance oils are blends of aromachemicals anyway so it sounds like whoever gave that advice doesn’t know what they’re talking about
For me, Christmas tree = black spruce + fir absolute
Videos like this are awesome by the way! I'd love to learn more about different kinds of fragrance products.
