What three essences do you feel you couldn't do without? For me it

would have to be labdanum, jasmine, and petitgrain sur fleur, though

I admit it was very tough to decide. I'm talking about for perfume

purposes only.

 

Mine would be patchouli, neroli and jasmine

Good thread/theme, Adam.

For me it would be jasmine grandi, non-cruelty animal, or antique animal

essences (not an old animal, old stock of essences, lol - like my

ancient castoreum or civet tinctures) and citrus - any citrus.

Hey ...

I went through that too...

As soon as I posted.....I thought about my love of lavenders (EO, Abs

and Concrete).........

Ya know...I wonder if I would make up a theme " fume " based on that....

And then modify the ends....

And then orange flower........(also a to die for)...

I too would have put ambergris but I thought that might not be

considered an essence.

[Guest guest]

Mine would be vetiver, white lotus and ginger CO2, although I'm not sure I'd

even call them my favorite or my most used!  But, I'm working on a blend right

now that contains those, so maybe that's why they're on my mind.  I'm sure my

answer would be different on another day!

[Guest guest]

its not ...i wasn't including ambergris in my selection pool.

Hi Adam

tough..

Rose

Citron

Jasmine

I am graduating today from a program at Berkeley Community Media to produce

TV programs for this Non Profit organization (others there should be community

media in your area). If anyone is interested in doing a piece and you live

close to Berkeley, CA please contact me off line. I think the community would

benefit from the discussions we would profer on real vs. Synths for a start, a

much needed dialogue

Of course I think Anya should fly out to be the interviewer, or she could get

someone to start a mini DV digital piece and send it to me as well as Janita and

whoever is interested. This could maybe lead to a PBS special. You know I am a

dreamer but the world is in trouble and you guys need more information spreading

to help people wade through this transition.

We could start with Mandy Aftel and Jeanne Rose, leading locals, if they are

interested. The ©=copyright will be given to each individual and can be

compressed to use on your web site.

Love

No doubt. Though not as incredible as the smell of actual orange

blossoms showering the air with their perfume. Gut wrenchingly

beautiful.

[Guest guest]

this month it is

helichrysum faradifani

samphire

patchouli

That's great news, Bb! Congratulations on graduating, have some cake and

champagne and a good sniff or two of your favorite aromatics and

perfumes. You've been on the group a long time, contributing and musing

away, and I had no idea you had the TV thing going on the side. Oh, I'm

a lousy interviewer. I like to talk, though ;-)

I really want to start to make mini videos on aspects of NP, but that's

after I master blogcasts. It's on my list! I'll write you privately with

my phone number and we can talk.

it is crest marine, or sea-fennel,

I love it so much, she seems to fit with any kind of plants

she has a lot of accointances with patchouli it is amazing how they

love neighbouringin blends), and citruses

I find a lovely eo in Bretagne, France

we still eat it in France, fresh or in vinegar, it is delicious

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samphire

[Guest guest]

for me, amber, patchouli and jasmine or ylang ylang. its a tie on that last one.

[Guest guest]

and for English or Wales people (normally, it grows up too in those

salty places)

a kind of honey and sea side patchouli-like eo that would have merged

from a love affair with elemi, and cucurma :-DDDD

fits terrific with them and with all citruses, petit grains,

lavenders, spices

[Guest guest]

oh, i see, intriguing.

of course thee are many eo's on my list I haven't purchased and used,

but this that you describe makes me desire some this evening,

straightaway, or at least soon.

Wow -- that was a difficult one Adam! For me, if I were stuck on a

desert island and could only have three essences, it would have to be

fir bud, honey, and labdanum. Man, that was hard -- I so

wanted rose, and vanilla, and jasmine too... What a fun thread!

Cheers!
