any thoughts about Cambodi Caramel?
also @SteveE
cheers

Nothing wrong with it and a lot right. I’d say it’s very balanced, complex and has a lot of variation through the dry down. Very much not one dimensional. I agree luxurious is a good word for it.

@SULAYM blew my mind today. Thank you, brother.
Not sure even where to start… just reeling right now in a cloud of heavenly scents.
Extremely generous samples… I will be doing detailed reviews of them all. Sultani Blue is instantly going to the top shelf here. My jam!
Blue is right!

Thanks to a generous Ouddict I have 1ml of mysore with 50% musk grains(!!) on the way.

 

[Sipy]

That's the best use of them!

Ohhhh...

How only a few weeks ago I had almost 2 liters of various vanilla extracts come tumbling down and crashing over my concrete basement floor.

Good times good times.

Interesting I was going to buy a bunch of vanilla pods. Was going to use them in homemade ice cream.

Love making ice cream

Oudique. Gensei Attar

From someone who has never, ever, ever been a fan of Patchouli...
I received 1 mL of this attar, absolutely, unabashedly fell in love with it.
Immediately ordered 2.5 mL.

Recommend this attar, especially if you don't believe Patchouli can be incorporated such that it does not overwhelm the composition.

Please let me know your experience with Gensei!

Gensei is lovely. As is Kayasuta. I'd love to try the other in the series as well.

Keeping my eye on this. I have also never, ever, ever been a fan of patchouli.

These are like nothing you have tried before. Trust me.

I was quite surprised by this Patchouli attar. Not only have I not been a fan, I actually have disliked it since I was 15 years old. I was astonished by Gensei - soft, rounded, sweetish but not excessively so, and none of that nasty body odor aroma I so often detect. I ended up ordering a larger vial before it was all gone.

More materials: expecting a delivery of high-quality rose otto, so I can work on something....

I like PureOudh’s woods … going in for more

I am going to make a BUNCH more resinoid and I am thinking hard about heat-treating some prior to extracting to see if I can tap into some of the aromatic potential of the CK. I have some going on the burner right now and it is just smelling so freaking good. Capturing / condensing the smoke or vapor or whatever you call it that comes off of the subitism is what I would like to accomplish, i know I'm not the first person to try to figure this out.

I wonder if it would be possible to use activated charcoal filter to capture vapors/fumes followed be desorption into solvent then rotovap??? It is 4 am so i might be dreaming.
