Hello, Could you possibly follow the FP53129/2012 formula or the MA3493/2013 formula.

Hello. I would also like to prepare a summer fragrance with a bitter and fresh smell, not sweet. Which of the recipes you posted would suit me best? Thank you.

mela, Hello, You can make the suggested substitution, cocoa butter is indeed more solid, it has a harder, compact texture.

If I replace mango butter with cocoa butter, do you think the fragrance will be more solid? I would like to pour it into a balm container for easier use. Thanks!

it's a perfume OF A RARE PERFUME AND AT ALL ATIPIC, FASCINATING, it really takes you to the Far East, which is what I was hoping for. I replaced only the grapefruit oil with Bitter Orange oil, for personalization...it's great. (Personally I would decrease the amount of Ylang Ylang that predominates, to bring out the rest of the composition, e.g. I would hope to feel the cardamom stronger, but these are already matters of finesse). thank you so much for your recipe!!!!

CORNELIA, Hello, You can work with jasmine wax instead of soy wax. Given the difference in hardness between the two, a smaller quantity of jasmine wax is sufficient, approx. 3 gr.

diana, Mango butter can be replaced with another vegetable butter. Of course, only one flavoring can be used.

Flowers, The preparation of solid or liquid perfumes does not require the use of an exact proportion between base and fragrance essences, so you have quite a lot of freedom to vary the percentages. Where stronger essences are (also) used, the percentage may be lower, for example 3% orange essential oil produces similar intensity to 0.5% cinnamon essential oil. The base of solid fragrances is given in grams indeed, but the essences in drops and possibly also in milliliters.

Good evening. In your recipe you have used a configuration 80% base +20% oils approximately, according to your calculations, that means oils in total amount of about 3ml? I got a bit confused since the base is given in grams and the oils are in ml. I looked at some solid perfume recipes and saw that the number of drops varies from one to another. Thank you. Have a nice evening or, as the case may be, a nice day.
