maceration

Hello all. Some of you will know me from the Logar rose thread. Both materials here I sourced from the land myself. The rose I picked alongside the growers in Logar at around 1,950m and stayed through the distillation. The saffron is a Super Negin lot I selected at the farm in Herat, tested ISO...

Assalamualaikum, Curious to hear informed opinions on the use of ultrasonic water baths in perfumery, particularly within natural compositions. Ultrasonic processing is often discussed for: Accelerating maceration Improving dispersion of heavy materials Assisting tincture extraction...

Hi all m, i hope you are well! I will be macerating and blending some oils and musks over the next couple years (for personal use) and wanted to ask where the best place to buy (in the UK) a small quantity of high quality glass dip attar bottles (ideally a couple in 3ml and a couple in 6ml) I...

Vintage Baccarat Crystal -Al Hind Oud Mysuru Special 90 Grams - 11 Grams of ultra rare musk grains collected by a Swiss company for Sultan Qaboos, this has not come out in public. These grains have blown up oils in matter of months previously. Believe me big names here who have smelled these...

Hey guys , Hope you are doing well, I have gotten my hands on some musk grains about 0.5 g and wanted to know where could i purchase good grade Sandalwood oil for maceration (Middle East preffered ) If you could provide me with the brand and a rough price range. If i should mix the musk...

I have this nagging thought which has been persistent over the last 2 years or so. Somehow I feel the outcome of a deer musk maceration depends significantly upon location. Perhaps it is not that much to do with weather, temperature but more the magnetic field of the area, and how the air has...

Hello, has anyone tried such an experiment? I have seen that some people have had positive results by creating tinctures, but I have not come across maceration in oils. What do you think about this?

I’m pretty new in this forum so I apologize if this is the wrong section for my topic. I’m planning on making a big batch of musk in sandalwood oil for my personal use, and to pass on to my children. The total weight would be 300g of musk grains in 1 liter of mysore sandalwood As is obvious...

Hello fellow Ouddicts, I am trying to get a raw tobacco leaf note and it is nothing like the tobacco tincture (which is mostly like pipe tobacco). So I am trying to macerate / tincture some raw tobacco leaves. My tincture is a week old and already has hints of tobacco in it. I am worried about...

After years of working with musk among various other ingredients, I've arrived at the realisation that musk truly stands in a class by itself. Its unique profile, the way it interacts with other oils, and its profound effect on both the mind and body set it apart. It's akin to a profound...

Hello Ouddicts! I would like to macerate my very first one and I need your valuable suggestions on using Mongolian Musk or Siberian Musk with EO Royal Taifi Rose oil.

Dear fellow respected Ouddicts, First and foremost glad tidings to all, hope everyone is having an amazing day! Feels good to do my first post😁 I am lucky enough to have bought a gram of Kashmiri musk from Pakistan. Originally my man in Karachi told me he would be able to get Nepalese Musk...

I wanted to explore other oils apart from sandle wood oil for macerating deer musk. from my search what I get is Jajoba oil and moringa oil can be used for macerating musk. Is there anyone who have tried these oils? what is your final results?

Hello Friends, I have few raw materials like deer musk, ambergris, civet paste and castoreum. I wanted to know what is the best way to store them? Do you guys keep them in air tight container and leave in your cupboard or you make them macerate in some oil. If I keep them in container, will they...

After reading some post on here it’s got me thinking on maybe macerating a some batch of musk for myself. Any tips, tricks and pointers would be helpful and much appreciated From what I have understood so far is that I need 10% or 20% musk in either sandalwood or oud. Then leave for about a...

For my first one, I went for ~17%, which is now 24+ months old. The most recent one (7+ months old) is about 20% (1 part grain: 4 parts Santalum album). I warmed each maceration only 3- 4 times for 2-3 minutes in an espresso cup - say once every 1-2 weeks (don't remember exactly) for the first...

Hello Ouddicts: I have recently begun attempting my own macerations, mixes, and eventually (hopefully) composed attars and perfumes. I successfully macerated Siberian musk grains into Australian Sandalwood. The maceration has aged about 6 months and is already quite potent with good...

for one of our attars The coffee/cohiba attar, we macerated cohiban cigars in Mysore sandalwood for almost a year Mixed with Jasmine, Tobacco, Vanilla, And Coffee, this attar smells splendidly different and interesting on so many levels. Please find attached photos of the process and the final...

hello everyone I bought a product labelled Gazelle Musk from oudimentary and recieved what i sense is a very fine synthetic muscone with menthol scent, to be honest their site didnt specify its natural musk, but i assumed since the price is 142 $ per bottle that it would be a musk moringa...
