  To all my fellow ’Perfume enthusiasts, welcome to the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/1%E2%83%A3">#1️⃣</a> YouTube Perfumer, Sam Macer !!!<br>…So I’ve been following SM for awhile now, and when this video was posted 2 months ago, without even finishing it, I jumped headfirst on ordering the 35+ Raw Material kit…<br>I’m here to say, that at just shy of turning 60, I’ve been having the time of my life every day since, creating new fragrances, while gaining more knowledge, with these very fine materials &amp; Sam’s professional videos 😃<br>Since I live in Canada, the exchange &amp; import fees were not great, but ultimately worth every penny,… Please gift yourself this opportunity, you’re worth it, and I can assure you that you will be thrilled above &amp; beyond 💫<br>*This is not a paid advertising 🤣

  I got into perfumery and fell down the rabbit hole moving from essential oils to hundreds of pro materials. I more or less gave up. Hands down this is the most difficult hobby I have ever attempted. I have made telescope mirrors, lasers, planetarium projectors, complex analog synthesizers and some serious exploration in organic chemistry. Perfumery is the most difficult thing I have ever attempted. It&apos;s too ineffable for my level of patience, and I do have a &quot;good nose&quot;. <br><br>However, I live in the country where there is a lot of Oak. So I have been gathering oak moss to make into absolute. It&apos;s amazing stuff and it&apos;s reinvigorated some interest, but I think I will find more success in the precision of chemistry to make interesting materials. Blending them is for a true artist.

  I’m trying to do as much research and reading as I can before I start. But I’ll be grabbing the starter kit from you when I do start in appreciation for what you do. Your channel is packed with so much awesome information man.

  Labdanum is up there with tuberose and osmanthus for me as an aroma that is incredibly appealing and complex just on its own. I also like cypriol as a patchouli alternative. When I wear a chypre I made with it people sometimes ask if there&apos;s patchouli in my perfume, but it lacks the elements that make me personally dislike patchouli and I&apos;ve never gotten a negative reaction to it. To me they are obviously not the same but are also obviously in the same family of scents.

  Am so glad someone is doing this - I’ve been into collecting frags for a bit , and have a bunch of mostly designer, cheapies, mid east, vintage/discontinued - couple of Chanel’s/ysls etc. But I also have about a hundred ingredients - which I dabble with, for fun mostly - am not too serious about it. &nbsp;I have just started ‘dabbling’ again - so your guidance is extremely useful. Thankyou 👍🥂
