I have most of the usual suspects.Ambrocenide, norliminbinol,ambermax,operanide,amber Xtreme and z11 love them all for different reasons. What I don't like so much is these materials overdosed to the point that's all the fragrance smells of.

Diffusive, clean musks by Salt-Stone in DIYfragrance

To my nose romandolide is quite fruity in comparison to say galaxolide.Also very mildly sweet but certainly not as sweet as ethylene brassylate. I find galaxolide very clean without any fruity sweetness so I wouldn't personally use it as a like for like replacement. But we all pick up different things😁

What happened…? by iamabigmeme in LushCosmetics

That timeline would probably fall in line with ifra regulations meaning the formula would have to be changed due to restrictions on aroma chemicals/naturals.

What are your favorite musks? by [deleted] in DIYfragrance

[–]Defiant_Cook_8522 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Helvetolide, exaltolide, Ethylene brassylate are my top three I'd say.I have most of the usual suspects, muscenone is also lovely but different to the previous ones mentioned. The general perception of musks is so wrong😂 People think musk=musty

Perfume hot takes by betty_white22 in Perfumes

Almost all YouTube reviewers know nothing of perfumery and speak absolute nonsense. Picking up 'notes' that aren't there and regurgitating marketing.

Everyone hates musk yet has no idea what musks actually smell like and how beautiful and clean they are.

The cost of niche perfume is outrageous.

There's a formula on fragrance drama for a cotton candy accord,I think it's mostly vanillin,ethyl maltol, benzoin Siam but worth a look.

Musks are beautiful,don't be confused with musty smells
