Question 1

What concentration should my perfume be?

Accepted Answer

Eau de toilette sits around 8-15% aromatic concentrate in perfumer’s alcohol, eau de parfum 15-20%, and extrait 20-30%. Start at 15% and adjust after maceration.

Question 2

How long should a perfume macerate?

Accepted Answer

Give a fresh blend at least 2-4 weeks in a cool, dark place. Heavy bases like oud, vanilla, and musks keep developing for two months or more.

Question 3

Do these materials come with documentation?

Accepted Answer

Most raw materials include supplier documentation such as IFRA conformity and SDS sheets — check the Files section on each product page or our Documents library.

Question 4

How do I start building a perfume organ?

Accepted Answer

Start with one accord: a citrus top, a floral or woody heart, and a musk or amber base — about 10-15 materials. Our perfume kits bundle a working palette if you prefer a curated start.
