An intensive course

• 3 weeks long
• 3 times each week.
• 2 hours each class
• 18 hours total

*You WILL come away with a LOT of knowledge.

Regularly price about $1000 CAD (still have to calculate details of costs)
*It is going to be free for the first 10 Ouddict members

This (not IFRA compliant) course will contain

• creating vintage chypre
• ambers
• fougere
• cologne
• rose accord
• jasmine accord
• orange flower accord
• animal musks and how to use them
• how to set up your scale
• how to calculate proportions in a formula
• deeper analysis vintage perfumery materials

I will give a list of materials, and suppliers in the new year.
please email me at

I am not a wealthy man, and I love sharing my knowledge with other people.
This first 3 weeks of lessons will be for various perfume enthusiasts in my life.
People who absolutely love perfumery, and wish to learn more about it!

Later, I will be running similar courses to supplement my income.
I am a passionate perfumer, but I am not wealthy and this Weill help in the slow season.

Be happy and healthy everyone!

sign me up.... sounds amazing.... will they be pre recorded or live?

 

They will be live,
But please understand.
I’m order to take part, you will need to purchase the materials...
This will cost you a couple hundred dollars.

I will work with a supplier, to put a materials kit together for this Course.

 

Wow! This is interesting.
When you say a couple hundred dollars, what price range is in mind? $2-300?

Also, can this same knowledge be transferred into attar making?

 

I have yet to calculate material costs, but I will definitely try to keep them low, and even attempt to get you guys a discount....

The same principles hold true for blending with oil, or blending in alcohol. So yet home crafted “attars,” (As opposed to those made in the traditional method in India)... are designed in the same manner as all perfumes.

yes, blending in oils or with alcohol holds the same materials and same design principles. 95% cross over.

 

You will be able to access them after the even is over

 

Perhaps a recording that can be bought and download later?...
That would be interesting......

 

good idea!

 

I’d like to take part, if still possible

 

Yes of course, it likely will not start until February 2021
I will carry on with it, and we will do it. But the materials may cost about $1000 so be sure to save your pennies.
I look forward to meeting all of you guys in class.

Wait... to do the free class it is necessary to buy $1000 of essential oils from you?

 

Absolutely not!
Haha, I wouldn't do something that obviously classless and stupid.
(it's not just essential oils, you need synthetic materials as well)

What I'm going to do is this;
I will contact one of my suppliers,
tell them the materials you will need to study with,
And see if they can put a collection, a "study set," together...
I will also encourage them to give you guys a discount.
I don't have oils for sale.


Don't worry, I'm not trying to shamelessly try to make some extra money this way.
the reason I am offering you guys a free course, is 2 reasons
1). I wish to make connections with you guys, because I know many members here really know a lot about oud
1). I must practice my teaching skills before I start charing people money! So you guys are my Guinne Pigs!
