I am big on safety issues and proper dosage. How do I deal with these issues in perfumery? For example, could a pregnant woman use my jasmine perfume if it’s a 15% dilution? What about using phototoxic citrus oils in topically applied oils or perfumes? I don’t see this information in the books I have. Speaking of books, your book on homemade perfumes is beautiful and useful and I’m so glad I got it!</p><span class="reply-container" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a aria-label="Reply to Catherine Oshin" class="comment-reply-link et_pb_button" data-belowelement="comment-4716" data-commentid="4716" data-postid="2014" data-replyto="Reply to Catherine Oshin" data-respondelement="respond" href="https://perfumeclasses.com/ask-the-perfumer-sunday-march-15-2020/#comment-4716" rel="nofollow" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: 50% center; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-size: cover; border-radius: 3px; border: 2px solid rgb(94, 149, 110); box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; display: block; font-size: 20px; line-height: 1.7em !important; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0.3em 1em; position: absolute; right: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; top: 7px; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: all !important; vertical-align: baseline;">Reply</a></span></div></div></article><ul class="children" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.7em !important; list-style: none !important; margin: 0px 0px 0px 100px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px !important; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><li class="comment odd alt depth-2" id="li-comment-4717" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><article class="comment-body clearfix" id="comment-4717" style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 48px; min-height: 0px !important; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px !important; padding-right: 110px; padding-top: 0px; position: relative;"><div class="comment_postinfo" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 8px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><span class="fn" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; display: inline-block; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">admin</span> <span class="comment_date" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">on March 15, 2020 at 2:44 pm</span></div><div class="comment_area" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><div class="comment-content clearfix" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Hi Catherine</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">It would be unethical for me to give advice to another school’s student, I hope you understand.

outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">1976</span>. That’s the year I began to seriously study perfumery with the aid of a few rare books and the assistance of two retired perfume industry sales representatives. I had already been collecting essential oils and absolutes for hippie fun, but that year I got serious about <span style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">making perfume</span>.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">At that time, I hadn’t come across labdanum, tonka bean absolute, myrrh, and some of the other thick and pasty aromatics. The thick ones, as I’ll call them from here out, are impossible to pour, or use with a dropper. When I did come across them, the perfume reps taught me about <span style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">diluting</span>* aromatics to work with them, both the thin, pourable stuff and especially the thick, difficult-to-work-with ones. *Dilution is the subject of another blog and is taught in Module one of my course.</p><figure class="wp-block-image is-resized" style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 1em;"></figure><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">I remember my jaw dropping when I read a perfumer recommend something like “50 drops” or labdanum in a “recipe”. Impossible! (and amateurish, too). This was about 15 years ago, and I was already using diluted aromatics to make my mods (modifications are the name given the experimentation with aromatics when composing perfume alternatives).</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"></p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">The typical way to make the thick oils more fluid was to heat the bottle they were in a bain-marie aka a water bath. What is a bain-marie? An invention by Maria the Jewess in ancient Egypt adapted for modern culinary and in our case, perfumery work. In the culinary world, custards, cheesecakes, and other foods are either cooked in or kept warm in, a pot containing water.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">I typically used a “coffee cup” warmer with a borosilicate beaker on it that contained water up to about the halfway mark on the aromatics bottle. Messy and dangerous.</p><h2 style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: "Open Sans", Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 26px; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1em; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #993300; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">A Wonderful Revelation in Working with Thick Aromatics</span></h2><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"></p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">So, for years, artisan perfumers were placing the bottles of myrrh, fir balsam absolute, oakmoss absolute, etc, into a pot of hot water. You had to pay careful attention that the water didn’t get too hot, and VERY careful when you removed the bottle from the water to pour the aromatic. Use a potholder, and make sure not one drop of water got into the receiver bottle, or the aromatic would be contaminated. A lot of scary, potentially dangerous work.</p><figure class="wp-block-image is-resized" style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 1em;"></figure><p class="has-very-dark-gray-color has-text-color" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #313131; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"></p><p class="has-text-color has-very-dark-gray-color" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #313131; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">I have been teaching distance-learning perfumery online courses since 2007, pioneering both the concept of learning natural perfumery outside of the classroom, but more importantly to me, sharing decades of workarounds and introducing modern techniques to aspiring perfumers.</p><div class="wp-caption aligncenter" id="attachment_1994" style="background: rgb(243, 243, 243); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; margin: 0px auto 10px; max-width: 96%; outline: 0px; padding: 8px; text-align: center; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline; width: 460px;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/making-perfume-working-with-thick-aromatics/img_0647/" rel="attachment wp-att-1994" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="Bottle of aromatic in hot rice to liquify so it is pourable." aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1994" class="wp-image-1994 size-medium ls-is-cached lazyloaded" data-src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/IMG_0647-e1569881511565-450x600.jpg" decoding="async" height="600" src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/IMG_0647-e1569881511565-450x600.jpg" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; height: auto; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" width="450" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-1994" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 12px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 4px 5px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/making-perfume-working-with-thick-aromatics/img_0647/" rel="attachment wp-att-1994" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"></a>Four ounce bottle of thick labdanum absolute nestled in hot rice</p></div><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"></p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"></p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">A few years into the course, in the student forum where we all chat, a student shared a brilliant idea about an alternative to using a bain-marie. Michael Singles suggested that fill a bowl or beaker with rice, heat the rice (two minutes seems to be a good time) in a microwave and then insert the bottle into the rice for a few minutes, and the thick oil will liquify. It works beautifully! I have been on perfume and aromatherapy forums for decades, and had never seen this tip, it was a revelation! BTW, at the time, I didn’t have a microwave, and I heated the rice in a small saucepan on the stove, which also works beautifully.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/making-perfume-working-with-thick-aromatics/img_0648/" rel="attachment wp-att-1995" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="Snuggling a bottle down into the hot rice" class="aligncenter wp-image-1995 size-large lazyloaded" data-src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/IMG_0648-e1569881459657-768x1024.jpg" decoding="async" height="833" src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/IMG_0648-e1569881459657-768x1024.jpg" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; display: block; height: auto; margin: 0px auto; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" width="625" /></a></p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"></p><figure class="wp-block-image" style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 1em;"></figure><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"></p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">You’ll still need a <span style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">potholder</span> to handle the hot bottle, but no water is involved, no mess, no fuss!

I never thought of that, but using a hotplate next to my work space with water and water baths, keeping the temp hot enough so I could use the material but not too hot, and, like you said, the risk of water contamination, was rather risky. I never blew it, but I was always nervous with that set up. I do dilute some ingredients, and that’s fine, but thank you so much for this idea.

outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Brilliant idea! We started offering our “solid” aromatics in jars a year or two ago. Myrrh is a challenge because when we bottle it, it is still liquid. What I do with a retail sized jar is immediately wipe the threads down with either Fractionated Coconut or Jojoba… long lasting lipids, as you mentioned. Myrrh is too liquid for a jar, but too sticky/solid for a bottle. Doesn’t work well either way.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">One other thought, if making an oil based perfume or balm, also warm your fixed/carrier oil. If you add a warmed ‘solid’ to a cold fixed oil, the result looks like an old fashioned Lava Lamp. (don’t ask how I know!)</p><span class="reply-container" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a aria-label="Reply to Marge Clark" class="comment-reply-link et_pb_button" data-belowelement="comment-4700" data-commentid="4700" data-postid="1992" data-replyto="Reply to Marge Clark" data-respondelement="respond" href="https://perfumeclasses.com/making-perfume-working-with-thick-aromatics/#comment-4700" rel="nofollow" style="background-attachment: initial;

For the suggestion of warming the oil first. And the oil around the threads of the bottle works great. The same with resin tinctures that I make.</p><span class="reply-container" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%;

Here are some of the tools and gadgets I’ve found helpful in the perfumemaking process. Please google or do further research into any process you’re interested in, as I won’t be answering individual questions about them on the blog. My students learn about these at different stages of their studies and receive in-depth training and have questions answered in their forums. When my new teaching site launches, there will be over 100 pages of supplemental materials for their enjoyment/learning at <a href="http://perfumeclasses.com/" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">http://PerfumeClasses.com</a></p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Monprene dropper</span></p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">For years, I used rubber dropper tops, and finally gave up, due to evaporation of the alcohol and essential oil dilutions, rendering my carefully-weighed dilutions useless. Then I found out about laboratory-grade monprene bulbs. They’re made to resist any solvents, and my perfume organ is now evaporation-proof! I think the smallest size the monprene droppers come in is for 15ml/half-ounce bottles, which you see in the picture.

A scale helps in both processes. First, I dilute using the aromatic and alcohol weights to the desired concentration, and then I later measure the aromatic for the finished perfume. A good, inexpensive scale can work for this, especially in the dilution phase. Find a scale that measures down to the hundredths (0.00) and up to 200 grams, even 100 grams will do. Use borosilicate (lightweight) 50 ml beakers for the dilution measurements. Upgrade to a 0.00 to 500-gram scale as your business grows 😉</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/scale/" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1976 lazyloaded" data-src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/scale.jpg" decoding="async" height="600" src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/scale.jpg" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; display: block; height: auto; margin: 0px auto; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" width="600" /></a></p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"> </p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Wax-Carving Tools</span></p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">When working with thick aromatics like labdanum, tonka bean absolute and such, nothing makes it easier to remove from the bottle for dilution or weighing than wax carving tools.

The essential oils in the botanicals dissolve in the alcohol and you can measure the amount with these inexpensive meters. Alcohol equals 0 on the meter, and each time you recharge the alcohol by straining out the spent botanical and adding fresh botanical to the alcohol, you can check the TDS number. At a certain point, you will see the number stops rising, and that means the alcohol is saturated with the essential oil, and you can cease recharging. Very handy device.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"> </p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/helpful-tools-for-perfume-making/hanna-tds-meters-hanna-hi-98303-hi-98304-conductivity-meters-500x500/" rel="attachment wp-att-1970" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1970 lazyloaded" data-src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/hanna-tds-meters-hanna-hi-98303-hi-98304-conductivity-meters-500x500.jpg" decoding="async" height="500" src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/hanna-tds-meters-hanna-hi-98303-hi-98304-conductivity-meters-500x500.jpg" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; display: block; height: auto; margin: 0px auto; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" width="500" /></a></p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Mixer with Teflon bars</span></p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Mixers work to blend perfumes before bottling. They’re not always necessary, but are helpful when there are 1) oils that are very different in consistency, or 2) you want to help the “aging” or “maturation” process of your perfume. See the vortex in the beaker? The Teflon bar is on the bottom, and a force in the mixer causes it to churn. Keep your perfume covered with a plate, and run the mixer in short bursts, stopping every 12 hours or so to evaluate the change in the perfume.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/helpful-tools-for-perfume-making/104235-85650121/" rel="attachment wp-att-1966" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="" class="alignleft wp-image-1966 size-medium lazyloaded" data-src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/104235-85650121-600x430.jpg" decoding="async" height="430" src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/104235-85650121-600x430.jpg" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; display: inline; float: left; height: auto; margin: 0px 15px 0px 0px; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" width="600" /></a><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/helpful-tools-for-perfume-making/teflon-mixer-stir-bars/" rel="attachment wp-att-1973" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="" class="wp-image-1973 size-thumbnail alignright lazyloaded" data-src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/teflon-mixer-stir-bars-300x300.jpg" decoding="async" height="300" src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/teflon-mixer-stir-bars-300x300.jpg" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; display: inline; float: right; height: auto; margin: 0px 0px 0px 15px; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" width="300" /></a></p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"> </p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"> </p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"> </p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"> </p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"> </p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"> </p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"> </p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"> </p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"> </p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"> </p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"> </p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"> </p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Sterilize Equipment with UV light</span></p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">After washing your bottles, caps, and equipment, it’s a good idea to sterilize them, especially true if you’re making hydrosols. These UV units are sold to the tattoo and nail arts businesses but are suitable for small scale sterilization for our purposes. Get one with a top rack, as shown. I put clean bottles on the top rack, and it’ll fit two one-quart jars or many smaller bottles. I put the caps facing upwards on the bottom, as the light will pass through the glass and sterilize the caps. Some hydrosol equipment is shown in the photo below.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/uv-sterilization/" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><img alt="" class="aligncenter wp-image-1964 lazyloaded" data-src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/uv-sterilization-600x400.jpg" decoding="async" height="400" src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/uv-sterilization-600x400.jpg" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; display: block; height: auto; margin: 0px auto; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" width="600" /></a></p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"> </p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Vacuum pump for filtration</span></p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"> </p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/helpful-tools-for-perfume-making/filtering-kit-500-ml-kt3003-1-porcelain-ware-buchner-funnel-8/" rel="attachment wp-att-1969" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter wp-image-1969 size-full lazyloaded" data-src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/filtering-kit-500-ml-kt3003-1-porcelain-ware-buchner-funnel-8.jpg" decoding="async" height="200" src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/filtering-kit-500-ml-kt3003-1-porcelain-ware-buchner-funnel-8.jpg" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; display: block; height: auto; margin: 0px auto; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" width="197" /></a></p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">These are primarily used drain brake fluid from cars but have been adapted to aid in the filtration of perfumes with a Buchner filter and Erlenmeyer flask.

Thank you for your preorder, and you’ve locked in the price by doing so. You need to agitate the mixture daily by shaking the jar. Do that for a few weeks. Then you will filter it with coffee filters and a stainless steel funnel into a clean jar. Press down on the pomade with a stainless steel spoon to extract as much alcohol as possible. You may wish to use the pomade in solid perfumes, etc. HTH.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Best wishes,<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Anya</p></div></div></article></li></ul></li></ol></section></div>anyasgardenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10223385840614041356noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30502094.post-51961880327961882512023-05-26T15:49:00.004-04:002023-05-26T15:49:51.998-04:00My Homemade Perfume book is published 2018<p> </p><div class="et_pb_module et_pb_post_title et_pb_post_title_0_tb_body et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_text_align_left" style="animation-duration: 0.2s;

Just finished a fun workshop with Women’s Heritage in Carpinteria, CA making tinctures and salves, and learning about hydrosols (their blog: womensheritage.com). Would love to see a non-profit created for flowers, using the same concept as “Veggie Rescue” in Solvang, CA (<a href="https://www.veggierescue.org/" rel="nofollow ugc" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">https://www.veggierescue.org</a>), where excess produce from farms is collected and delivered at no cost to recipients. For flowers that are starting to wilt or excess in abundance, the same efforts could be done, making perfumery more sustainable. I will forward the blog to my friends and relatives via email, as I don’t use facebook, Instagram, etc. currently.</p><span class="reply-container" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a aria-label="Reply to Julie Baker" class="comment-reply-link et_pb_button" data-belowelement="comment-4633" data-commentid="4633" data-postid="1903" data-replyto="Reply to Julie Baker" data-respondelement="respond" href="https://perfumeclasses.com/homemade-perfume-book/#comment-4633" rel="nofollow" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: 50% center; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-size: cover; border-radius: 3px; border: 2px solid rgb(94, 149, 110); box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; display: block; font-size: 20px; line-height: 1.7em !important; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0.3em 1em; position: absolute; right: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; top: 7px; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: all !important; vertical-align: baseline;">Reply</a></span></div></div></article></li><li class="comment even thread-even depth-1" id="li-comment-4634" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><article class="comment-body clearfix" id="comment-4634" style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 48px; min-height: 0px !important; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px !important; padding-right: 110px; padding-top: 0px; position: relative;"><div class="comment_postinfo" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 8px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><span class="fn" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; display: inline-block; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Jenya Bushmich</span> <span class="comment_date" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">on April 16, 2018 at 8:44 pm</span></div><div class="comment_area" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><div class="comment-content clearfix" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Looks like a really great book.

I imagine that I should pre order again. I am so excited to know how to obtain the fragrance from my star shooter lilies.

In return, we were going to move to Dakar, Senegal for a few years to pay back the money for the education. I was studying plant science, ethnobotany, and anthropology at the time, and did a lot of research to prepare for the move. As an avid supporter of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appropriate_technology" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">Appropriate Technology</a> movement and an agriculturist with a keen interest in arid and semi-arid tropical plants, I was ready to work at some form of halting the southward spread of the Sahara Desert into Sub-Sahelian Africa. The US AID did not require us to go to Senegal for some reason, but my love of the region that developed due to all my research never stopped.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/ecological-wonder-great-green-wall/ggw_icon_opt/" rel="attachment wp-att-1894" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="great green wall illustration" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1894 lazyloaded" data-src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/GGW_Icon_opt-600x338.jpg" decoding="async" height="338" src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/GGW_Icon_opt-600x338.jpg" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; display: block; height: auto; margin: 0px auto; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" width="600" /></a></p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Some time ago I discovered the incredible project known as <a href="http://www.greatgreenwall.org/great-green-wall/#great-green-wall-internal" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">The Great Green Wall</a>. Stretching from Senegal on the west coast, the effort was focused on planting a 10-mile wide band of drought-resistant trees to the east coast, ending in Somalia. I believe the primary plants are acacia trees and <a href="https://goodanthropocenes.net/2016/09/30/gardening-the-sahel/" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">vegetables</a>. Once the trees become established, their roots can pull up water from the low water table, making it more available for crops, and this is badly needed in this region. The trees will also help cool the air temperatures slightly, a bonus.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/ecological-wonder-great-green-wall/green-wall/" rel="attachment wp-att-1895" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="great green wall" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1895 lazyloaded" data-src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/green-wall.jpg" decoding="async" height="235" src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/green-wall.jpg" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; display: block; height: auto; margin: 0px auto; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" width="390" /></a></p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">The acacia being planted is <a href="http://www.sciencealert.com/africa-builds-great-green-wall-of-trees-to-improve-farmlands" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">Acacia senegalia senegal</a>, a source of gum arabic, which has many uses in the food industry and other endeavors.

I may never get to visit Senegal or the Sahelian region, but my heart has long been there, loving the culture, and the hardworking, tenacious people. Bravo to Senegal for investing so much in the project, and building the greatest horticultural feature on earth, in cooperation with other nations.</p><div><br /></div></div>anyasgardenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10223385840614041356noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30502094.post-80035335786239581222023-05-26T15:43:00.006-04:002023-05-26T15:43:55.555-04:00Modern techniques for making perfume<p> </p><div class="et_pb_module et_pb_post_title et_pb_post_title_0_tb_body et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_text_align_left" style="animation-duration: 0.2s;

Perfume bottles and lab equipment can arrive from the factory with contaminants such as dust, bits of odds and ends (like paper), pesticides (from warehouse spraying), and other assorted things that need to be removed before filling or shipping. If you’re into making perfume or perfume products, you should read this.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Isn’t the New Year all about making good choices, and upping your game?

I explain in detail how to achieve these three goals in my upcoming book <span style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><em style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Homemade Perfume</em> </span>due out in August 2018 from Page Street Publishing.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Sanitary is a given, and easy: wash your equipment with hot soapy water, and air dry. That is necessary for everything. Disinfection can be achieved in a heat cycle in a dishwasher, or by using a bleach or alcohol rinse. Sterilization is most important for any container that will hold a product that contains water, like a lotion or hydrosol. For this purpose, I prefer a UV light unit. I rarely have a container so big I need to bleach the solution. Pictured you’ll find my unit, loaded with bottles on the top, and accessory tools on the bottom. I recommend buying a unit for cosmetology or tattooing purposes, they’re inexpensive and easily portable around your studio – plus, no bleach smell!</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Caution: see the blue light? It can damage your eyes, so when the unit is on, I usually drape a cloth over it. This photo took about 3 seconds, and that’s all the exposure I allowed myself.</p><div class="wp-caption aligncenter" id="attachment_1883" style="background: rgb(243, 243, 243); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; margin: 0px auto 10px; max-width: 96%; outline: 0px; padding: 8px; text-align: center; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline; width: 410px;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/modern-techniques-making-perfume/sterilization-unit1_opt/" rel="attachment wp-att-1883" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="UV sterilization unit for making perfume products safe." aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1883" class="size-full wp-image-1883 lazyloaded" data-src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/sterilization-unit1_opt.jpg" decoding="async" height="262" src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/sterilization-unit1_opt.jpg" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; height: auto; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" width="400" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-1883" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 12px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 4px 5px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/modern-techniques-making-perfume/sterilization-unit1_opt/" rel="attachment wp-att-1883" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"></a>UV sterilization unit for making perfume products safe.</p></div><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Homemade Perfume</span> will be a gateway book for those who wish to learn basic techniques for making perfume.

The well-known aromatherapist must have given directions on storage and use, but I don’t recall them. I still have some of that hydrosol, archived for decades in a refrigerator, brought out now and then to sniff, or transfer a bit to a sterile sprayer for use on the tips of my hair. No sign of microbial growth, the main problem with hydrosols, but I am aware that sometimes the growth does not show up as dark swirls or gunk on the bottom of the bottle, it can be invisible.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">For readers who aren’t familiar with what hydrosols are, they’re the water from distillation, and they contain water-soluble aromatics of the plant. Many now distill just for the hydrosol, which is a slightly different process from distilling for essential oils, wherein hydrosols are a “byproduct” of the essential oil process.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">I often make “stovetop” distillations that don’t require a distillation unit, and pop them into sterile bottles and into the fridge, with an expected shelf life of a week or so. Care must be taken to avoid allowing microbes into the hydrosol, as it is easily contaminated by your fingers, microbes in the air, and such.</p><div class="wp-caption aligncenter" id="attachment_1706" style="background: rgb(243, 243, 243); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; margin: 0px auto 10px; max-width: 96%; outline: 0px; padding: 8px; text-align: center; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline; width: 610px;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/make-hydrosol-the-simplers-herbalist-way/simpler-rosemary-resized72_opt/" rel="attachment wp-att-1706" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1706" class="size-medium wp-image-1706 lazyloaded" data-src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/simpler-rosemary-resized72_opt-600x400.jpg" decoding="async" height="400" src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/simpler-rosemary-resized72_opt-600x400.jpg" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; height: auto; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" width="600" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-1706" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 12px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 4px 5px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/make-hydrosol-the-simplers-herbalist-way/simpler-rosemary-resized72_opt/" rel="attachment wp-att-1706" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"></a>Refreshing rosemary simplers’ hydrosol made with fresh rosemary from my garden.

I purchased two hydrosols for personal use, one from a very well-known herbal supplier, and the orange blossom hydrosol quickly went bad. I knew it wasn’t my having a hand in contaminating it, as it had a spray top. When I wrote them, they said they had distilled it themselves from *dried*! orange blossoms, and didn’t know about needing sterile bottles. Mind you, this is a huge company, but I guess nobody did their research. Another bad hydrosol came from a friend who was in the essential oil supply business, but who didn’t know anything about hydrosols. It went bad very quickly.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">In 2009, I distilled for the first time, in a glass still, and got a few milliliters of exquisite bay leaf essential oil, and some lovely hydrosol. Well, I wasn’t stringent about sterile bottles, and the hydrosol went bad, even under refrigeration. I should have known better, but the distillation was haphazard, as we were both learning and scrambling around. I never made that mistake again!</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Here’s my problem in 2017. Everybody is loving hydrosols and jumping on the hydrosol-making trend. Too many folks, in my opinion, although they may have taken a course with a great distiller, don’t understand all the need for sterilization of equipment, and good labeling.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">A few months ago, a local friend received a gift of a hydrosol made from grapes at an herbal conference. She called me when the bottle developed obvious microbial contamination, full of dark swirls. I was shocked and told her to toss it. What made this so urgent in my mind is the fact she has an illness that requires her to have zero immune systems. Yes, she must suppress her immune system to live. No eating at buffets, no digging in the soil, no public transportation, just a very carefully-controlled environment to prevent anything from attacking her because it can KILL her.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">The person who gave her the hydrosol is known to me to be very sloppy and incompetent when it comes to safety, from making body butters that can cause citrus phototoxicity and permanent scarring, to not sterilizing her bottles for hydrosols. Ugh. I had warned her many times about her careless use of essential oils, hydrosols, and such, but here was an event that could cause death.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">I propose that not only do makers of hydrosols get highly educated on how to sterilize, store, and distribute these beautiful fragrant waters, but they adopt a labeling standard that can help keep the waters safe(r).</p><ol style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; list-style-image: initial; list-style-position: inside; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 23px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><li style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">The botanical and common name of plant material</li><li style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Date distilled</li><li style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Warning to those with compromised immune systems or other health concerns to not use them.</li><li style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Instructions to not open the cap and leave the hydrosol exposed to air.</li><li style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Instructions to not touch the neck of the bottle so that their finger comes in contact with the hydrosol.</li><li style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Do not breathe into the hydrosol, it may distribute microbes from your respiratory system into the hydrosol.</li><li style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Keep it in the refrigerator</li><li style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">At the sign of anything “growing” inside, discard the hydrosol.</li><li style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Take the pH of the hydrosol, if it goes above 4.0, discard</li></ol><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Dear reader, can you think of anything else.

The other two volumes held little interest to natural perfumers since they were on the subject of synthetics.</p><div class="wp-caption aligncenter" id="attachment_1861" style="background: rgb(243, 243, 243); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; margin: 0px auto 10px; max-width: 96%; outline: 0px; padding: 8px; text-align: center; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline; width: 310px;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/perfume-flavor-materials-natural-origin-now-20/arctander-book/" rel="attachment wp-att-1861" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="Hardback version of Steffen Arctander's Perfume and Flavor Materials of Natural Origin" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1861" class="size-full wp-image-1861 lazyloaded" data-src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/arctander-book.jpg" decoding="async" height="466" src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/arctander-book.jpg" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; height: auto; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" width="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-1861" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 12px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 4px 5px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><br /></p><p class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-1861" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 12px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 4px 5px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/perfume-flavor-materials-natural-origin-now-20/arctander-book/" rel="attachment wp-att-1861" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"></a>The hardback version of Steffen Arctander’s Perfume and Flavor Materials of Natural Origin</p></div><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">It was very difficult to find the PFMNO on eBay or other places for less than a small fortune, often around $700. I had snagged a book for $117 on UK eBay from a retired perfume chemist, but that was a rare score. Allured responded positively and began selling the volume for about $350 if I recall correctly. That was great, and many snapped it up. I developed a relationship with Allured, and they gave me 20-30% off with a coupon code I could publicize. What a great resource for us natural perfumers.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">In the past few years, Allured has offered fewer books than before, and they are I suppose going through a business model re-do.

Most regard it as the best reference for plant and animal essences used in perfume and flavors. I turn to it often, to clarify a point, dig deeper into research, or sometimes just for fun, to muse about these delightful fragrances we have for our art.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Imagine my surprise when I visited Abe Books, a supplier of used books I love for their great prices, and found that they’re now printing PFMNO on demand through Create Space, the branch of Amazon that prints on-demand books.

Strange Magic is made with tinctures that reveal hidden colors in the flowers, leaves, and roots when they were placed in the alcohol. Anya has tinctured for herbal purposes for forty years, and for perfume purposes for twenty years. It wasn’t until she dropped snow-white Michelia alba flowers into the alcohol and saw the alcohol turn pink, then red, then dark red that she realized there were some hidden secrets in some flowers – Strange Magic.</p><div class="wp-caption aligncenter" id="attachment_1849" style="background: rgb(243, 243, 243); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; margin: 0px auto 10px; max-width: 96%; outline: 0px; padding: 8px; text-align: center; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline; width: 610px;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/strange-magic-perfume-2/michelia-alba-tincture-copy2_opt/" rel="attachment wp-att-1849" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="White champaca flowers turn a gorgeous red in alcohol" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1849" class="size-medium wp-image-1849 ls-is-cached lazyloaded" data-src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/michelia-alba-tincture-copy2_opt-600x283.jpg" decoding="async" height="283" src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/michelia-alba-tincture-copy2_opt-600x283.jpg" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; height: auto; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" width="600" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-1849" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 12px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 4px 5px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/strange-magic-perfume-2/michelia-alba-tincture-copy2_opt/" rel="attachment wp-att-1849" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"></a>White champaca flowers turn a gorgeous red in alcohol</p></div><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">The magic appeared a few years ago when she dropped a handful of white Michelia alba flowers into 190 proof alcohol. She wanted to make a fragrant tincture of this delicious smelling flower to add to her array of natural raw materials for her perfumes. As soon as the flowers started to sink into the alcohol, the alcohol took on a pink tinge. It was quite startling, and by the second day, the alcohol was a light shade of crimson. The more flowers added to recharge the alcohol with scent, the deeper red the menstruum got, eventually becoming burgundy/opaque. Some said it was the dyes or waxes in the flowers revealing themselves, but she said it was Strange Magic.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Plant dyes have been known for thousands of years, but the colors extracted are somewhat related to the original plant material’s color. Onion skins make a golden dye, blueberries a bluish dye, and so on.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">This was different.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">She’s tinctured herbs, woods, roots, leaves, and flowers for many years, beginning with simplers herbal tinctures. What an epiphany the white champaca flowers were. Numerous tinctures that had changed color now flooded her consciousness. The yellow ylang ylang flowers turned the alcohol olive green, and eventually opaque, like the Michelia.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">White jasmines such as the sambac Grand Duke of Tuscany turned deep gold. White gardenias and tuberoses again – deep gold. She had been using the orangy/brown jasmine absolutes and concretes from the 70s, but never put the color change together until the white champaca. She’d never seen any talk of the color change on any of the aromatherapy or perfume forums she’d been on for decades, other than the color change mentioned was the blue azulene color that developed when chamomiles were distilled, everyone seemed entranced by that. The azulene is not present in the fresh flowers, but develops in the distillation process.But white jasmines turning orangy/brown? No. No discussion.</p><div class="wp-caption aligncenter" id="attachment_1850" style="background: rgb(243, 243, 243); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; margin: 0px auto 10px; max-width: 96%; outline: 0px; padding: 8px; text-align: center; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline; width: 610px;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/strange-magic-perfume-2/ylang-tincture-copyright_opt/" rel="attachment wp-att-1850" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="Yellow ylang ylang flowers turn the tincture green, and get darker with each recharge.

If they can garden, and have suitable space in the garden, it’s possible to lessen the carbon footprint associated with purchasing essential oils and absolutes. All that’s needed is 190 proof alcohol, and harvesting and recharging the alcohol to make the tincture strong with fragrance.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">It is not a fast or rushed process: Anya and her assistants spent many hours over the years hand-harvesting the flowers, placing them in alcohol, straining them out, recharging them over and over. If you know the heat and humidity of Miami, you know the dedication this took. Some tinctures have been recharged dozens of times to reach the scent strength desired. Still, it is worth it because the cold process, with no heat destroying some of the more delicate floral notes, and the sustainability of producing some of the raw product on-site are dual bonuses of the eco-conscious perfumer.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Anya is currently in discussions with publishers about a book she has written <em style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Perfume From Your Garden</em>.

At the time, I didn’t know my bottles of aromatics were supposed to be arranged on a tiered shelf called a perfume organ. Because I was a botanist, I categorized them by the part of the plant they were extracted from: florals, woods, leaves, etc., and kept them in plastic boxes for storage.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Later, I had a beautiful old wooden printer’s tray, which, when attached to a wall, provided a lovely display for the small bottles, but was impractical for working, and, of course, didn’t hold the larger bottles.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">In 1990 or so, I stored my perfume organ in a beautiful Thai display case.</p><div class="wp-caption aligncenter" id="attachment_1825" style="background: rgb(243, 243, 243); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; margin: 0px auto 10px; max-width: 96%; outline: 0px; padding: 8px; text-align: center; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline; width: 410px;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/modern-perfume-organ/naples-perfume-organ-in-thai-display-case_opt/" rel="attachment wp-att-1825" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="Anya McCoy with Thai display cabinet holding perfume organ oils" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1825" class="size-full wp-image-1825 lazyloaded" data-src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/naples-perfume-organ-in-Thai-display-case_opt.jpg" decoding="async" height="594" src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/naples-perfume-organ-in-Thai-display-case_opt.jpg" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; height: auto; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" width="400" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-1825" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 12px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 4px 5px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/modern-perfume-organ/naples-perfume-organ-in-thai-display-case_opt/" rel="attachment wp-att-1825" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"></a>Anya McCoy with Thai display cabinet holding perfume organ oils</p></div><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">I finally located a man in Kentucky who made the wooden tiered racks for essential oils you’d see displayed in stores. I carefully measured what I perceived I’d need, and sent him the information.

Why dilute your essences? It saves a lot of money, first of all. Imagine using undiluted pricey oils, like rose otto, for all of your mods. Secondly, now you get the scent of the rose “opened up” by the alcohol in the dilution, too. Two great bonuses!</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Don’t ever struggle with trying to use labdanum or tobacco absolutes by the drop again! The diluted essences are very fluid.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Now only dilutions are on the perfume organ. Most are 10%, some higher, some lower. The undiluted raw materials are kept in a refrigerator, with their specific gravity noted on a blending database. You may be able to blend a perfume modification with a diluted essence, but you need the specific gravity to be able to blend any quantity. This is taught in my Intermediate Level Perfumery course. <span style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: green; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="http://perfumeclasses.com/" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: green; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Enroll now in the Basic course</a></span></span>, which will prepare you to further your studies at the Intermediate Level.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"> </p></div><div class="et_pb_module et_pb_divider et_pb_divider_0_tb_body et_pb_divider_position_ et_pb_space" style="animation-duration: 0.2s; animation-timing-function: linear; background: 50% center / cover no-repeat rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; box-sizing: content-box; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; height: 23px; margin: 0px 0px 24.6759px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><div class="et_pb_divider_internal" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; display: inline-block; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline; width: 897.417px;"></div></div><div class="et_pb_module et_pb_comments_0_tb_body et_pb_comments_module et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_no_avatar" style="animation-duration: 0.2s; animation-timing-function: linear; background: 50% center / cover no-repeat rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><section id="comment-wrap" style="box-sizing: border-box; padding-top: 0px; position: relative;"><h1 class="page_title" id="comments" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: "Open Sans", Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 30px; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1em; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">7 Comments</h1><ol class="commentlist clearfix" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.7em !important; list-style: none !important; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px !important; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><li class="comment even thread-even depth-1" id="li-comment-4612" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><article class="comment-body clearfix" id="comment-4612" style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 48px; min-height: 0px !important; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px !important; padding-right: 110px; padding-top: 0px; position: relative;"><div class="comment_postinfo" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 8px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><span class="fn" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; display: inline-block; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Jude Fanton</span> <span class="comment_date" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">on April 2, 2017 at 3:12 pm</span></div><div class="comment_area" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><div class="comment-content clearfix" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Very Helpful Anya as raw beginners we have a disorganised organ in extremis, a tall stainless steel set of shelves with drawers underneath.

I wonder if the violet has deepened or it is the difference between two different distillations… I have two VL diluted from different distillation batches. Both from Eden that seem quite different. Which I realize is normal also.

This is an ongoing problem, and I’d love to solve it!</p></div><div class="et_pb_module et_pb_divider et_pb_divider_0_tb_body et_pb_divider_position_ et_pb_space" style="animation-duration: 0.2s; animation-timing-function: linear; background: 50% center / cover no-repeat rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; box-sizing: content-box; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; height: 23px; margin: 0px 0px 24.6759px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><div class="et_pb_divider_internal" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; display: inline-block; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline; width: 897.417px;"></div></div><div class="et_pb_module et_pb_comments_0_tb_body et_pb_comments_module et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_no_avatar" style="animation-duration: 0.2s; animation-timing-function: linear; background: 50% center / cover no-repeat rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><section id="comment-wrap" style="box-sizing: border-box; padding-top: 0px; position: relative;"><h1 class="page_title" id="comments" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: "Open Sans", Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 30px; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1em; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">2 Comments</h1><ol class="commentlist clearfix" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.7em !important; list-style: none !important; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px !important; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><li class="comment even thread-even depth-1" id="li-comment-4610" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><article class="comment-body clearfix" id="comment-4610" style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 48px; min-height: 0px !important; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px !important; padding-right: 110px; padding-top: 0px; position: relative;"><div class="comment_postinfo" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 8px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><span class="fn" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; display: inline-block; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">marge clark</span> <span class="comment_date" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">on February 3, 2017 at 2:56 pm</span></div><div class="comment_area" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><div class="comment-content clearfix" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">I personally love the photo.

Many can trace their formative moment – the zing of recognition – when a scent transformed their life, and put them on the path of creation. They probably smelled everything around them (as did I) from grass to dirt, flowers, other people, cement, perfume, cereal, ink, paper, plastic dolls, toys, food cooking, hair, furniture, the air before a storm, rotten wood, burning leaves – in other words, the full spectrum of fragrance in the environment. The natural environment, complex, challenging, and often sweetly rewarding enticed and enchanted us. We were hooked.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Many who love perfumes in general, whether they contain all-natural ingredients or not, cite the kiss goodnight from a mother swathed in evening clothes, diffusing an exotic scent as she bent over them before setting out to a party as a defining moment, a moment when perfume’s magic of transformation of their mother into an otherworldly, fragrant unknown star in the sky touched them deeply. Perfume profoundly moves us, and natural essences move us the most – we are entranced with their beauty, complexity, and “aliveness.”</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">When the synthetic chemical scents coumarin and vanillin were discovered in the 1880’s, they were quickly added to the corporate perfumer’s palette, and natural perfumery as it had existed up until then disappeared. Looking back in time perhaps four or five generations, it must be acknowledged everyone who loved perfume knew only perfume with synthetics blended in with the naturals.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Whether floral and discreet or ambery and animalic, loaded with civet, musk, castoreum, and ambergris, the all-natural perfumes created in the pre-synthetics era disappeared.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">The pre-1890 natural perfumer had a rather limited range of aromatics to choose from, as many of the Indian and Asian essences we now have easy access to were not used in Western perfumery at that time. Today, champaca, lotus, ambrette, agarwood, and many other exotics round out the number of botanicals available to the natural perfumer. That, along with the adoption of classic French techniques of blending using top, middle, and base notes, helps differentiate the modern natural perfumer from the 19th-century one.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">A look back to the 19th Century would be little more than an intellectual exercise for a perfumer without the eternal beauty and complexity of the fragrant botanical extracts to kindle the fire of passion in the modern natural perfumer.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Since aromatherapy had opened the doors of small-scale distribution of essential oils, all the natural perfumer had to do was nudge open a few more doors, and suppliers were providing them with concretes and absolutes, attars, and other raw materials. The aromatic palette was complete, and the niche field of modern natural perfumery was launched.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Some of the beginner natural perfumers liked, and had, all sorts of perfumes in their possession, from the classics like Chanel No. 5 to modern niche Serge Lutens creations. Still, others professed a dislike to the strong sillage and diffusion of modern perfumes. There was no common ground on like or dislike of perfumes containing synthetic chemicals – only a professed love of natural aromatics.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Yes, even though they had easy access to aromachemicals – synthetic versions of the naturals, and fantasy scents – they chose to work with only naturals.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Why have you decided to be a “naturals-only” perfumer is a question we often get. The person asking the question may list the negatives:</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Your raw materials are very expensive.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Your perfumes don’t last as long as those with synthetics, and they don’t have great diffusivity or sillage.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />The raw materials are difficult to work with.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />You’re artisans, often working out of a spare room in their house, isolated.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />You have to for the most part, train yourselves and fund your own business.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />You have to search out distribution networks, or, more realistically, depend on the internet or local stores for sales.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />You realize they’ll never get rich at this, or have a corporate safety net.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">We answer – Because.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Because:</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">We’re in it for the art.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />We regard the natural essences as providing the richest, most beautiful, complex, challenging liquid artform to work with.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />The fragrances evolve on the skin in a way synthetics don’t and captive us with their slow, seductive nuances.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />We don’t like big-volume perfumes with a lot of sillage or diffusivity.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />We like subtle, complex aromatics that stay close to the wearer’s body and evolve slowly on the skin.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />We take delight and pleasure in experiencing a unique natural aromatic.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />The discovery and unlocking of a complex accord within a natural is rewarding.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />The ability to connect on a level that speaks to an eternal fragrance is wonderful e.g., the cypriol we use is the same cypriol that was used in ancient Egypt.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />The excitement of being on the ground floor of a new art as it develops, and realizing that if we’ve come this far in approximately five years, how far we can go with natural perfumery in the next fifty?</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/how-to-make-your-own-perfume-professionally/trio3ml-blue-copyright-mccoy/" rel="attachment wp-att-1317" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="Natural Perfumers create perfumes from 100% natural aromatics" class="aligncenter wp-image-1317 size-medium lazyloaded" data-src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/trio3ml-blue-copyright-mccoy-600x332.jpg" decoding="async" height="332" src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/trio3ml-blue-copyright-mccoy-600x332.jpg" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; display: block; height: auto; margin: 0px auto; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" width="600" /></a></p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">There is no competition with mainstream perfumery. We’re just two different art forms, like oil painting is different from digital art. There are completely different aesthetics, mediums, and results, and so it is and will always continue to be. These parallel arts will always have things in common, such as the need to respond to market trends, sourcing, R&D, and the need to always keep learning, keep on top of the perfumery and keep current, and that is our common ground.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Natural perfumers will always create for those who appreciate hand-made items from natural sources, and they are fortunate to live in the time of the internet and global transport that delivers raw aromatics and customer's orders to their studio, allowing them to develop their art and business outside of the closed world of corporate perfumery schools.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">We have a pronounced advantage in our pioneering of tincturing and infusing rare botanicals for our own use. Natural perfumers are as apt to create their own jasmine bases and tuberose tinctures as buy it from the supplier if they have a garden to grow the botanical in. Others are tincturing seeds and soil to recreate some of the more exotic scents out of India, such as ambrette and mitti, which is soil attar.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">And the clincher? Our mothers, who first turned us on to the world of perfume, love our scents, and we now give back to them and their generation our liquid treasures, botanicals made naturally.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">You may wish to sample the creations of the Certified Natural Perfumers in the Natural Perfumers Guild.

It is so in-line with what we believe in, and practise, here in our subtropical garden in Australia. I really appreciate that you researched the history of synthetic aromas and give the pros and cons of natural perfumery from many perspectives.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />We started tincturing only in July last year, 2016, when we found the medicinal herbs Hypericum perforatum (St John’s Wort), Arnica montana and Gentian spp in the mountains of Les Cevennes, France; and then alpine flowers in Roumanian Transylvania; continuing in autumnal Hokkaido, northern Japan and back here in our extensive garden.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />So far we have made 130 tinctures, a few enfleurages and warm oil macerations. I am having fun mixing scents at our perfume organ with our friends as my new year present to them. Little (and big) girls love that, as do our male friends too.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Perfumery is a natural progression after 35 years producing our food, including six species of mushrooms, and foraging the wilds, as well as founding and running a national network to conserve traditional varieties of food plants.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />I really appreciate that you share your knowledge and experience.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Best wishes from a warm and steamy subtropical southern summer, Jude Fanton</p><span class="reply-container" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a aria-label="Reply to Jude Fanton" class="comment-reply-link et_pb_button" data-belowelement="comment-4607" data-commentid="4607" data-postid="1806" data-replyto="Reply to Jude Fanton" data-respondelement="respond" href="https://perfumeclasses.com/passion-natural-perfumers/#comment-4607" rel="nofollow" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: 50% center; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-size: cover; border-radius: 3px; border: 2px solid rgb(94, 149, 110); box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; display: block; font-size: 20px; line-height: 1.7em !important; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0.3em 1em; position: absolute; right: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; top: 7px; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: all !important; vertical-align: baseline;">Reply</a></span></div></div></article><ul class="children" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.7em !important; list-style: none !important; margin: 0px 0px 0px 100px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px !important; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><li class="comment byuser comment-author-mccoy odd alt depth-2" id="li-comment-4609" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><article class="comment-body clearfix" id="comment-4609" style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 48px; min-height: 0px !important; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px !important; padding-right: 110px; padding-top: 0px; position: relative;"><div class="comment_postinfo" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 8px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><span class="fn" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; display: inline-block; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a class="url" href="http://anyasgarden.com/" rel="ugc external nofollow" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: black; display: inline-block; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Anya</a></span> <span class="comment_date" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">on February 3, 2017 at 1:56 pm</span></div><div class="comment_area" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><div class="comment-content clearfix" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Thank you Jude.

In India, this species of jasmine is called Juhi, and I first smelled the absolute in 1976 at the Magic Dragon shop in West Los Angeles.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Here’s a photo of me with my young J. auriculatum vine in 2011. It was taken by my front door, but the auriculatum didn’t last there long – I had to move it. Why? Because around 10:00 PM at night, the scent would go so indolic, I thought a dog left a deposit by my front door!

Like the auriculatum, the azoricum flowers are very fragile and star-like. The azoricum needs to be harvested by noon because it cannot take the day's heat. The jasmine scent is lightly accented by a vanilla note, making it particularly delightful.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"> </p><div class="wp-caption aligncenter" id="attachment_1397" style="background: rgb(243, 243, 243); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; margin: 0px auto 10px; max-width: 96%; outline: 0px; padding: 8px; text-align: center; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline; width: 510px;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/jasmine-gardenia-flowers-ready-making-perfume/jas-azoricum2smcopy/" rel="attachment wp-att-1397" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1397" class="size-full wp-image-1397 lazyloaded" data-src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/jas-azoricum2smcopy.jpg" decoding="async" height="375" src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/jas-azoricum2smcopy.jpg" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; height: auto; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" width="500" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-1397" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 12px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 4px 5px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/jasmine-gardenia-flowers-ready-making-perfume/jas-azoricum2smcopy/" rel="attachment wp-att-1397" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"></a>Jasmine azoricum flowers bloom year-round!

border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">There are times I just want to spray a delectable floral, spice, herb, or other botanical water on my face or body. The well-known botanical waters rose or orange blossom, are also known as hydrolats, distillate waters, or hydrosols. I’ll call them hydrosols for this article because that is perhaps the best-known name for them.</p><h2 style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: "Open Sans", Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 26px; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1em; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">What’s the difference between Hydrosols and Simply Boiling the Botanical?</h2><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">When you boil a botanical, whether it’s a rose or oolong tea, you are making an infusion. All of the properties of the botanical are being drawn out into the hot water, and you can drink it ‘as is’. When you make a hydrosol, many of the chemical properties of the botanical are left in the water in the bottom of the pot, as in making tea. It’s the volatile, scented properties of the botanical that rise with the steam, condense on the iced top of the container (more about that below), and drip down into a container that will collect the hydrosol.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Hydrosol is much more concentrated than tea, and should always be diluted before using it in food or drink. However, if you’re like me, you make it mostly for spraying on the body or hair, or for splashing on the face, like a toner.</p><h3 style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: "Open Sans", Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 22px; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1em; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #339966; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Why Make Hydrosols?</span></h3><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Why hydrosol? Besides the health benefits of using a botanical with beneficial chemical components, maybe I just want to capture the ethereal citrusy scent of rare lemongrass (C. flexuosus) from my garden. It’s sweeter and lighter than the bulbous “regular” lemongrass we all know from Asian recipes, and I find it very refreshing. Maybe I only have a few dozen golden campaca flowers, or a few handfuls of ylang-ylang, in all their rare and glorious sensual beauty. Let’s not forget the lemon leaves, rosemary, lime leaves, patchouli, pineapple sage, and other fragrant beauties I have in my garden — the list is long, and I love them all!</p><div class="wp-caption aligncenter" id="attachment_1703" style="background: rgb(243, 243, 243); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; margin: 0px auto 10px; max-width: 96%; outline: 0px; padding: 8px; text-align: center; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline; width: 610px;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/make-hydrosol-the-simplers-herbalist-way/simplers-hydrosol-plants_opt/" rel="attachment wp-att-1703" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="Some ideas for a simplers' hydrosol - lilies, rose geranium, citrus rinds, leaves, or flowers, dried patchouli or other herbs or teas - etc., etc." aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1703" class="size-full wp-image-1703 ls-is-cached lazyloaded" data-src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/simplers-hydrosol-plants_opt.jpg" decoding="async" height="600" src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/simplers-hydrosol-plants_opt.jpg" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; height: auto; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" width="600" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-1703" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 12px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 4px 5px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/make-hydrosol-the-simplers-herbalist-way/simplers-hydrosol-plants_opt/" rel="attachment wp-att-1703" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"></a>Some ideas for a simplers’ hydrosol – lilies, rose geranium, citrus rinds, leaves, or flowers, dried patchouli or other herbs or teas – etc., etc.</p></div><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">I have several distillation devices: a 2 Liter glass hydrodistillation unit from <a href="http://heartmagic.com/EssentialDistiller.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">Heart Magic</a>, and a gorgeous piece of art in the form of a 20 Liter copper hydro- or steam-distillation unit from <a href="http://essentialoil.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">The Essential Oil company</a>. Due to their small size, I mostly get hydrosol, and a little bit of essential oil. Using them, I get anywhere from a pint to three liters or so of hydrosol. These units are great for production, but sometimes when I just want a quick hydrosol, I don’t set up the formal distillation units. Instead, I use a method that was probably used thousands of years ago and is still efficient and productive today.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">I call it a simplers’ distillation, paying homage to the ancient simplers’ method of herbal tincturing and infusion. The simplers’ way means nothing is measured, and the botanical is simply covered by the menstruum – water, in this case – and the process is adapted for a stovetop or campfire.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Our ancestors in northern climates probably used cold water from a stream or well, but since Miami’s tap water (which I filter) rarely goes lower than 78F, I have to resort to using ice to facilitate the necessary condensation. This condensation of the rising steam is what chills the steam and allows the scented hydrosol to fall into the bowl for collection.</p><div class="wp-caption aligncenter" id="attachment_1704" style="background: rgb(243, 243, 243); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; margin: 0px auto 10px; max-width: 96%; outline: 0px; padding: 8px; text-align: center; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline; width: 610px;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/make-hydrosol-the-simplers-herbalist-way/simplers-hydrosol-pot-with-bowl-lid-and-steam-small_opt/" rel="attachment wp-att-1704" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="simplers hydrosol pot with bowl lid and steam small_opt" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1704" class="wp-image-1704 size-full lazyloaded" data-src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/simplers-hydrosol-pot-with-bowl-lid-and-steam-small_opt.jpg" decoding="async" height="450" src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/simplers-hydrosol-pot-with-bowl-lid-and-steam-small_opt.jpg" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; height: auto; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" width="600" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-1704" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 12px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 4px 5px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/make-hydrosol-the-simplers-herbalist-way/simplers-hydrosol-pot-with-bowl-lid-and-steam-small_opt/" rel="attachment wp-att-1704" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"></a>Inverted glass lid with metal handle (all non-reactive materials) showing steam starting to materialize after a few minutes of water and rosemary in pot being heated.<a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/make-hydrosol-the-simplers-herbalist-way/simplers-hydrosol-pot-with-bowl-lid-and-steam-and-ice-bag_opt/" rel="attachment wp-att-1705" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="After steam appears, place a ziplock bag filled with ice on the lid.

Turn the lid upside down, so the hydrosol will drop down into the bowl.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />– A platform to elevate the bowl. It should be as small as possible to do the job because the area around it needs to be sufficiently generous to hold as much plant material as possible. I use an upside-down custard cup aka a ramekin, with a flat bottom<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />– Plant material: fresh is best, but you can experiment with flowers, seeds, bark, roots, and other materials that are dried.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />– Filtered water<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />– Appropriate size ziplock plastic bag to fit onto the lid. I use one-gallon bags.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />– Ice to fill the plastic bag. You may need to refill the bag several times as the ice melts, so have a backup supply of ice. After the distillation is completed, I let the melted ice in the bag refreeze by placing the bag inside the lid and placing it in the freezer. That way, the bag is conformed to the lid, and in a solid chunk, which slows down the melting time for the next distillation.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />– Sterile container for the finished hydrosol. Directions on how to sterilize the container are detailed below.</p><h2 style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: "Open Sans", Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 26px; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1em; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #339966; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Directions</span></span></h2><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">1. Place the pot or saucepan on the heat source<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />2. Place the platform to elevate the bowl in the bottom of the pot, centered.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />3. Place the plant material around the platform, up to the top of the platform. Pack the plant material to fit as much as possible in the space.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />4. Pour in enough water to cover the plant material.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />5. Place the bowl on the platform<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />6. Place the lid on the pot, inverted, so that the dome faces down, to allow the steam to drip into the bowl. The hydrosol will drip from the handle into the bowl<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />7. Turn on the heat to high, and when the water begins to boil, turn it down to medium and place a bag of ice on the lid.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />8. Maintain an even temperature for the heat, and replace the bag of ice as needed with a fresh bag of ice.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />9. The distillation is finished when the plant material looks “spent”, or you detect an odor that indicates no more fragrant molecules are being extracted.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />10. Lift the bag of ice from the lid<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />11. Do not open the lid. Allow the pot and contents to cool down to room temperature.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />12. Remove the lid and pour the contents of the bowl into a sterile container and secure a lid on the container.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />13. Label the container with the date, plant material, and method used.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />14. Store in a cool place, out of sunlight.</p><h3 style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: "Open Sans", Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 22px; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1em; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #339966; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Sterilizing The Hydrosol Container</span></span></h3><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">There are several methods that you can choose from to sterilize the container you use for storing the hydrosol, whether it is a jar or bottle. Of course, glass is the best choice, due to its non-reactive properties, and a tight-fitting cap is necessary, as a cork will allow microbes to migrate into the container.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">1. While the hydrosol is cooking on the stove, place your container and its lid into a separate pan and gently boil for at least twenty minutes. Carefully remove the container and lid with tongs, and place them upside down on a clean towel. Allow them to cool. You may also boil a pyrex or stainless steel funnel at this time if you wish to use it for transferring the hydrosol to the container.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">2. Use an alcohol wash of the container and lid and funnel (optional) by diluting 190 proof undenatured alcohol to 170 proof and washing the inside of the container and the lid and funnel with it.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">3. I use a UV light box, such as the ones used by tattoo artists and cosmeticians. I place the container and funnel on the top shelf, and the cap on the bottom, facing upwards, so the UV light can reach the inside of it. Put the UV machine on for 15 minutes to sterilize.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"> </p><div class="wp-caption aligncenter" id="attachment_1702" style="background: rgb(243, 243, 243); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; margin: 0px auto 10px; max-width: 96%; outline: 0px; padding: 8px; text-align: center; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline; width: 410px;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/make-hydrosol-the-simplers-herbalist-way/sterilization-unit-with-bottles-and-cap-small_opt/" rel="attachment wp-att-1702" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="Quick and easy way to sterilize materials with UV light.

She uses fresh rose petals, so it’s a great visual. My instructions and preferences differ a bit from hers: I like a glass lid so I can observe the process, and I think it’s a lot more convenient to place the ice cubes in a plastic bag. Also, as noted above, I’m very strict about sterilization. Hydrosols can grow microbes very quickly if not transferred into sterile containers with sterile lids.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Vnv4gTeTv8" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Vnv4gTeTv8</a></p><h3 style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: "Open Sans", Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 22px; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1em; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #339966; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Combo hydrosols</span></h3><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Experiment and find some combinations of plant materials that you like.

They were harder to find than I imagined, but I got two in small pots about a year and a half ago. You can read more about them <a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/ask-the-perfumer-forum-and-tropical-lilac-1282013/" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank" title="Ask the Perfumer forum and Tropical Lilac! 12/8/2013">here.</a></p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">These plants are as aggressive in their growth habit as mints; instead of growing horizontally via runners, they grow vertically, leaping skyward at an astonishing rate. I don’t fertilize them, and they don’t have any pests or diseases. On a sunny Sunday in Miami, Angie and Julia showed up to harvest them and we worked together on the distillation of the big, soft, velvety, fragrant leaves. The leaves smell like a combination of balsam, tobacco, mint, and sweetness.</p><div class="wp-caption aligncenter" id="attachment_1673" style="background: rgb(243, 243, 243); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; margin: 0px auto 10px; max-width: 96%; outline: 0px; padding: 8px; text-align: center; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline; width: 610px;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/distilling-cornutia-grandifolia-for-perfume-and-health/ag-angie-and-julia-harvesting-cornutia_opt-1/" rel="attachment wp-att-1673" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="Angie and Julia harvesting the Cornutia grandifolia leaves" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1673" class="size-full wp-image-1673 lazyloaded" data-src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/ag-angie-and-julia-harvesting-cornutia_opt-1.jpg" decoding="async" height="305" src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/ag-angie-and-julia-harvesting-cornutia_opt-1.jpg" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; height: auto; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" width="600" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-1673" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 12px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 4px 5px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/distilling-cornutia-grandifolia-for-perfume-and-health/ag-angie-and-julia-harvesting-cornutia_opt-1/" rel="attachment wp-att-1673" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"></a>Angie and Julia harvesting the Cornutia grandifolia leaves</p></div><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">This photo gives you a sense of the size of the leaves: “grandifolia” for sure.

Not only did the Cornutia fill that description, but it was also the palest of silvery blue. I was wondering if it might contain chamazulene, the antiinflammatory agent in Roman Chamomile. The undersides of the leaves are silvery, and maybe the blue is present because of the blue flowers – which we did not distill but might be present in other parts of the plant. After I posted about this on Jeanne Rose’s Hydrosols group on Facebook, she informed us that the flowers are mixed with lime(stone?) in France to make a spot of blue ink.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Here is a photo of the “head” hydrosol:</p><div class="wp-caption aligncenter" id="attachment_1679" style="background: rgb(243, 243, 243); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; margin: 0px auto 10px; max-width: 96%; outline: 0px; padding: 8px; text-align: center; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline; width: 572px;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/distilling-cornutia-grandifolia-for-perfume-and-health/head-of-the-hydrosol_opt/" rel="attachment wp-att-1679" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="The "head of the hydrsol captures the sweetest, prettiest notes.

Artichoke, ghee, floral, tobacco, and mint were the first observations. Then in the “body,” the artichoke receded a bit, and a balsam scent came through. I think we were a little perplexed because we had never smelled anything like this before. We all agreed that the fragrance was strong, and an analogy could be made that it was as big and powerful looking as the plant and leaves.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">I feel the hydrosol could be used in perfume, a tiny bit added to round out and give a complex, beautiful note.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">When we detected that the scent coming out of the distillation was going flat, we knew we had reached the “tail” or end of the great-smelling distillate.

You also have to examine the marc in the column, the part that was steam distilled. There were no dry spots, no areas where the steam did not pass through, so we felt pretty good about the project.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">We now have almost two liters of “body” hydrosol distillate, and slightly less than one pint of “head”. We all took samples of the “body” to evaluate as it slightly aged. Over the course of this week, the artichoke has disappeared, and some sage notes, and then black tea notes (it even smells like sweetened iced tea!) have emerged along with floral, balsam, and others that are hard to define. No, no essential oil. Perhaps like the other Mint family plant that yields *very* little essential oil – Lemon Balm – this plant is to be prized for its hydrosol. What are the medicinal properties? Good question.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Angie Gonzales is an Ayurvedic practitioner and she will be delving into the large body of Spanish language written materials on this plant. It’s an ancient, powerful medicinal plant, and there have been a number of studies done on its medicinal properties in Central and South America. Since it was used by the Mayans, and Angie is from Mexico, she feels a special affinity for it. We will be reporting more on this wonderful plant in the future.

When making modifications (aka mods) to choose the perfect perfume, it helps to have both the Aromatic Lexicon that I supply my students with, and the next step, a shorthand way to jot down those descriptive terms. The following shorthand key included in the textbook for <a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">The Natural Perfumery Institute</a>, (NPI) is valuable for this, and I’m sharing it here to pay it forward to those who need some help with their word searching.

Saving the individual entries will give you the chance to create a document of your own, and add the descriptors you develop in your studies. I provide my students with an editable Word.doc to do this, and they really come up with some creative terms! Use the document as a jumping-off point to allow you to add to when new terms arise during your observations. Feel free to share this with your perfumer friends, and most of all, have fun!</p><h3 style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: "Open Sans", Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 22px; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1em; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: center; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/making-perfume-tip-about-using-abbreviations-for-descriptors/shorthand-key-perfume-descriptors/" rel="attachment wp-att-1668" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="A quick and easy way to keep notes while evaluating perfume modifications.

outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">I just revised the insert card that I include when customers buy my sample box of 12 perfumes. I decided years ago that it’s best to make a suggestion about the sampling process, and the parallel to wine sampling. If you’ve ever visited a winery or attended a wine-sampling event, you’re familiar with this process.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">At the wine event, you’ll be given the light, crisp whites to experience first. You inhale the bouquet (smell) and then taste the wine. Then you’ll move on to a more robust white, something like a Chardonnay, and so on, through light reds, to deep, full-bodied reds.</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Why? Because the fuller-bodied, deeper, more robust wines will dull your taste buds and sense of smell a bit, overwhelming them so that if you taste a lighter wine afterward, all the nuances of that wine will be lost. Light first, then move on through the more assertively scented and tasting wines, and you’ll be able to enjoy and fully experience all the nuances. It’s the same with perfumes!</p><div class="wp-caption aligncenter" id="attachment_1658" style="background: rgb(243, 243, 243); border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; margin: 0px auto 10px; max-width: 96%; outline: 0px; padding: 8px; text-align: center; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline; width: 610px;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/how-to-sample-perfume/anyas-garden-2015-how-to-sample_opt/" rel="attachment wp-att-1658" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><img alt="How to Sample Perfumes - from Anya's Garden Perfumes" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1658" class="size-full wp-image-1658 lazyloaded" data-src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/anyas-garden-2015-how-to-sample_opt.jpg" decoding="async" height="464" src="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/anyas-garden-2015-how-to-sample_opt.jpg" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; height: auto; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;" width="600" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text" id="caption-attachment-1658" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 12px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 4px 5px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://perfumeclasses.com/how-to-sample-perfume/anyas-garden-2015-how-to-sample_opt/" rel="attachment wp-att-1658" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"></a>How to Sample Perfumes – from Anya’s Garden Perfumes Photo: gardenia by Anya McCoy</p></div><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Ironically, my lightest perfume is named Light, so I worked out the sampling progression from there, and each perfume from that starting point gets stronger and more full-bodied. By including this card, I help my customers in two ways: they have learned about the intensity and sampling system of wines and perfumes, and they don’t overwhelm their noses by choosing Fairchild or Star Flower first!</p><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Hope this helps everyone understand and use a logical way to enjoy perfumes.</p></div><div class="et_pb_module et_pb_divider et_pb_divider_0_tb_body et_pb_divider_position_ et_pb_space" style="animation-duration: 0.2s; animation-timing-function: linear; background: 50% center / cover no-repeat rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; box-sizing: content-box; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; height: 23px; margin: 0px 0px 24.6759px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><div class="et_pb_divider_internal" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; display: inline-block; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline; width: 897.417px;"></div></div><div class="et_pb_module et_pb_comments_0_tb_body et_pb_comments_module et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_no_avatar" style="animation-duration: 0.2s; animation-timing-function: linear; background: 50% center / cover no-repeat rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><section id="comment-wrap" style="box-sizing: border-box; padding-top: 0px; position: relative;"><h1 class="page_title" id="comments" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; font-family: "Open Sans", Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 30px; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1em; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">1 Comment</h1><ol class="commentlist clearfix" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.7em !important; list-style: none !important; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px !important; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><li class="comment even thread-even depth-1" id="li-comment-4548" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><article class="comment-body clearfix" id="comment-4548" style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 48px; min-height: 0px !important; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px !important; padding-right: 110px; padding-top: 0px; position: relative;"><div class="comment_postinfo" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 8px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><span class="fn" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; display: inline-block; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Rae Lynn</span> <span class="comment_date" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">on August 30, 2015 at 5:19 pm </span><a class="comment-edit-link" href="https://perfumeclasses.com/wp-admin/comment.php?action=editcomment&c=4548" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #5e956e; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration-line: none; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">(Edit)</a></div><div class="comment_area" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><div class="comment-content clearfix" style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;"><p style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">What a great idea!</p></div></div></article></li></ol></section></div>anyasgardenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10223385840614041356noreply@blogger.com0
