perfume ingredients for detergent soap

ok
check this out
ever heard of client from hell a design team in toronto ? i bike by their office sometimes
 anyway i was just going on an algorhythm tip no doubt and found this
ok
so im looking up aromatic chemicals and one of the ones presented to me, not something i searched literally was geranyl nitrile and i found on the good scents company the ifra is prohibiting this ingredient for perfume use but its being sold as a perfume ingredient. its been used on rats and rabbits when they force the animals large doses of this material until they die. so they know how toxic this ingredient is. yikes. this is the prohibiting body. so it looks like this patent for a plastic end piece for a tube packaged laundry detergent went through some revisions. perfume revisions. im not sure but have a look, its lol. client from hell you say? how bout perfume reformulations for plastic packaging specifications? axe body spray allergies causing anaphylactic shock and cant reveal formula you say?
https://patents.google.com/patent/US4741856
 just for example. the material geranyl nitrile is a potential aquatic life disruptor according to the prohibiting body that tests on rats and rabbits (did they do a long term aquatic study ? i thought it sounds like its from geranium)  and according to this google patent is been used in laundry detergent since 1987...i think ... mass produced cos who has the money to patent the development of the plastic end tube packaging? wonder what laundry detergent this is? i will research the material now cos its kind of weird. im not sure what to use. obviously i wont use the rat and rabbit tested stuff if i find out. gee. let me check now. cant they test somehow in another way? i guess not. they do weird tests on humans enough as it is... oh so much to do!
the amount of scent you need to make something smell good when you whiff it from the bottle is how consumers buy things and that amount is HUGE and actually if you dilute it.... like hey ever buy a huge bottle of dish soap that your crazy bf uses up in two days ? but actually what you learned to do is dilute like a teaspoon in 2 cups of distilled water and use it for a week? i mean, wow lets just perfume the world via our kitchen and laundry sinks, only thing perfume making doesnt work that well this way. ive made so many weird combinations to know.

wow ok so this patent i found off the good scents database,
http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&Sect2=HITOFF&d=PALL&p=1&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsrchnum.htm&r=1&f=G&l=50&s1=4,330,417.PN.&OS=PN/4,330,417&RS=PN/4,330,417 
is from 1928 the original laundry detergent and fabric softner, a fresh lemony aroma, apparently, or perfume. about .20% of the patent ingredient is used and the formula uses .10 in 1300 or something, geranyl nitrile has been used as a perfume ingredient for various household and personal products since 1928 and all the info theye could find was torturing rabbits and rats? consumer privacy and research and unknown cumulative toxicitiy there must be an easier way. i mistyped mist and imagine if the corona virus was actually some kind of mist or particle from some form of banned ingredient found out by the perfume industry. like some of these ingredients arent actually perfume ingredients, they just have a nice smell so the perfume industry has access to them. yikes. to know is half the battle but what if its just too long and what is a timeline anymore? maddening.

ok wtf
i just found this ban on the substance as a perfume ingredient for detergent
https://ifrafragrance.org/standards/IFRA_STD48_0053.pdf
 from 2009

is this a nitrile form from geranium>????? i dont understand how this ingredient was made. why do they use geranyl as a name ? there are many geranyl ingredients that are natural isolates that are not toxic?
like as in cyanide? like nitriles are like glues, so if its a bastard of geranium that sticks around too long, it was part of a lemony aroma that lasted in laundry soap so its not necessarily lemony and if its for a freshness it sounds like geranium doesnt it. please dont make me be the one to look this shit up i just wanted to make perfume and actually yes i realize i cant sell any of the perfumes now without looking up the ingredients to some degree, specially not blends from other companies who cannot disclose their perfume ingredients? like really my day is spent stressing on where to throw the trash vs recylcing and knowing and not doing due to other things like doing this? wth?
or wth am i actually reading ugh
ok so its banned since 2009 for found toxicity to aquatic life found out from testing on animals
its been used as a laundry detergent perfume ingredient since 1980
its still being sold today
good thing i didnt buy it!! or did i??
is this ingredient used in any of the essential oil perfume blends i buy as perfume ingredients? if its a compound from a natural ingredient forced into a specific shape for its prolonged odor for rinse off products is this in the woolzies stuff that use for dryer balls ? is it considered a distillate? ugh im the rat now. honestly i feel tortured... avatars from basenotes haunt me like ebeneezer scroodge and the fairys and godmothers of tales you wished were true before you read other things not meant for children.... hand me that baby product............200 years later mutant humans with scratch and sniff areas of the body that detect diseases in their dna matches world wide but are only found under specific constraints and the battle for privacy reigns supreme!! natural deaths for the anarchists!! vegan terrorists corona virus rabbit testing isis flag plant double take in a british gay rally using shame to shun a female reporter https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3142221/CNN-confuses-black-white-flag-covered-sex-toy-symbols-ISIS-London-gay-pride-parade.html what the actual fuuuck ?????? anyway just something to think about. i have to dig for that not actually an isis gay flag link now and link the shame post https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/So_You%27ve_Been_Publicly_Shamed but holy hell man....

i mean wow this is just a few hours of chillin on my own using the internet and my mind, i wish i was housed like i have to go through the ads and bike around and im just so tired of traps and such. its hard gains when youre noticing specific perfume ingredients. i mean my mind is so blown and my shade spot is sunny so i have to go, before i you know, get cancer and mutate!!!!!ok i checked. its not getting cancer and mutating. its not carcinogenic to humans, its toxic to fresh water fish, like this delicious lookin bugger, lauscisus isus...say that again?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ide_%28fish%29

so its a no for laundry. lethal concentration for 50% of the animals, in this case this cute fresh water fish native to europe and asia waterways according to wikipedia, is LC50 - Leuciscus idus (Golden orfe) - > 22 - 44 mg/l - 96 h (msds found here http://finoric.com/Aromatics/Geranylnitrile.htm) so that means the fish die? in 1-96 hours of 22-44 mg in what? in the lake? you use .01% in the total fragrance concentration or less than that for the total but if its millions of people  (or even say 50,000 people using this laundry detergent for 40 years in one area) using it and all the washing machine run off goes through one area which seeps into the fresh water way a few kilometers over by underground passages and then these fish all die. wtf? cos this damn geranyl nitrile? damn! how did the fish die .... is the new why did the chicken cross the road?

omg i just should stop checking the new links as i go along

now i find ok supply chains. so this one supplier i find in the u.s. gets chems from india and china and this one indian patent is getting geranyl nitrile from essential oil https://www.allindianpatents.com/patents/195658-a-process-for-the-prepration-of-geranyl-nitrile-from-lemon-grass-oil  let me just keep reading this and ... does anyone want to get me lunch? i missed lunch again. ugh.
ok so it says here
"However isolation of citral from natural source such as essential oil of lemon grass may either be achieved by fractional distillation of the oil or by derivatisation such as bisulfite formation which is followed by liberation of citral by treatment with alkali solution. Lemon grass oil (Cymbopogon pendulus fam. Grahminae) contain almost 65-70% of citral which is a mixture of two stereoisomers, viz. citral a (65%) and citral b (35%) (Sharma, J.R., Lai, R.K. Mishra, H.O. and Naqvi, A., current science 197, 56, 30; and Patra, P and Dutta, P.K. Res. & Ind. 1986, 31, 358). "

so basically you can get geranyl nitrile from a natural source and it could be called a distillate of an essential oil of lemongrass, but this isolate is a known irritant to freshwater fish and soil pollutant which would seep into fish. its got a lemony fresh odor, its similar to lemonile in name/term (which i have but havent used cos its so strong and theres a note of metal in it that i find offensive to my nose even at the smallest concentration- i was nudged by pk paulkiler in basenotes to check it out at a low concentration, even in traces, so i havent tried it in formula in trace yet, but im smelling the dilution that i would use to be able to use it in trace and i already find it offensive like you somehow smell metal on your skin and you think of tetanus)

ok so now what? one ingredient ill remember not to try to use based on the ifra ban which ill trust because i havent found the fish study. and i need to go outside and ship some items. and eat something. maybe ill have some fish. i dont know anymore.....

so far ive gotten some stuff done and i feel better about maybe succeeding in my life. now i might be able to remake the gardenia perfume tonight. i originally thought #1 had no magnolia leaf but it turns out that #2 was just number 1 with different ratios. I originally made the perfume with really wonky ratios that made the perfume have this dirty aspect to it. As if it was a bouquet by the roadside. With the second version all I did was round off the numbers and boost some of the flowers like extra rose de mai, more ylang and more gardenia, and a little bit more jasmine. It worked very well, and my dilution ratio was lower so it was stronger. I also used less magnolan. I noticed the other day when I spilled the #2 and wore it, that two days later I could still smell the magnolan on my sweater when I rewore it. Not only does it last all day, it might last a lifetime, hence sensitivity. I was thinking of making two versions of the perfumes that are mostly botanical ingredients. For example this one has musk ketone and magnolan, which are not naturally derived so the natural version I conceive will have no synthetically derived ingredients, but that would not include naturally sourced isolates like geraniol or farnesol. I'm not sure that will sit well with the purists though, so I also conceive I will have (finally) actual bona fide aromatherapy blends. In the future when I'm all better and on my own for a while with no external aggressors, I am positive I will be enjoying my product making once again, and I can't wait to share my joy with you.

---
ok so i resmelled the gardenia perfume #3 and its too much myraldyl acetate. like way too much. it took forever to mix in and i used it too fast., i think: i have this idea but its just asking someone who knows how this works: for the myraldyl of givaudan.

its too sweet and shimmery and top its almost like a holy ghost but its too much and it turned into a veil for the all the essential oils
maybe i can try it at like 10% or less, in trace, and prepepared, i used .01 part in the formula so its too high.

for the homey may rose or what did i call it violet may
honey may
the first one had the #17 then the second one i made #17.2 then the 3rd one i effd up and used a peppermint bottle top cos lame and i changed the top but not before i noticed a slight change in the smell of the rose and i thought i was imagining things from the basenotes forum. it was the largest amount i made of the violet may trials, 30 ml perfume at 25% concentration, i used the last of my sandalwood so id go get more, its got more chamomille, it has no sandalore and ebanol (the sandalwood eo replaced these) i didnt use the violet accord from perfumers apprentice, used a higher amount of the #17.2 (now just #17) and its a lot of fun and  playing a game with your memory and making  mixtures you can name and use in another thing in the future, its very cool and fun. also science and science kit at home. cos confinement and corona virus.

i have a swap page for perfumers or people interested in essential oils...
http://www.basenotes.net/threads/476459-nicotiro-swaps-e-o-s-for-a-c-s

was thinking about also having the samples up in case anyone wanted to try some but do not have anything to trade, then they could just send me some money for it.

.:
ok weird just now im getting loads of flak on the basenotes forum
its some kind of shilling or some kind of public shaming of women online
thats what it feels like to me. anyway. so theres that.... as usual. so im kind of bummed i wont log in anymore or read the forum because it literally takes me away from what im buzzing around there looking for, a phrase, some kind of connection with a smell that i can make with what i have or learn something new from what i have and this knowledge isnt fully hald up front like its very loosely accessed and the trolls they take it away with their inane demands on polictical correctness and even now i feel like another unpaid shill for some kind of fight between the british and french schools of aromatherapy oh for fucks sake and then it goes on and on and cries out loud. if it wasnt for the internet where would be. outside no doubt, in civilized society!

Scalp Tonic !

My scalp tonic !!! Formula !!
I have posted additional oils in my basenotes thread found here:
http://www.basenotes.net/threads/459171-EO-Perfume-blends-Fougere-Chypre-amp-Cologne?p=4556889&viewfull=1#post4556889


Hmm online content is online content!
Here is my post (yippeee the colours remain!)


Update!
Scalp Tonic!
Been working on research regarding the scalp tonic. A lot of the essential oils need high percentages for them to work as referenced in the studies. So I was going to make two versions, the aromatherapy version which might not smell like a perfume at all, and a daily scalp tonic which would be the one that smells better.

Original blend:
12 rosemary - aids penetration
07 lav - aids synergy
04 mint - circulatory stimulation
02 geranium - hormone balancing
01 neroli - pore tightening


I would like to add the following oils in a pleasing way.
sicilian lemon - antibacterial
magnolia leaf - antifungal
frankincense - wound healing
thyme - anti bacterial
marjoram - anti bacterial
ravensara - anti viral
cedar atlas - sebum control
vetiver - yeast control


Aroma chems:
sandalore - hair growth- only needs .005% to work
farnesol - anti bacterial

(these are ones I do not have but have been referenced in study)
eugenol
cavacrol
thymol


Made a recent blend with all the additional oils on a trace of sandalore and farnesol, only denatured alcohol and water. It smells … ok, it smells like an aromatherapy blend, I can still smell the original blend, sweet, juicy and herbal mint. The most interesting part is how it regulates my circadian rhythm when I apply it at night before bed. Its happened by coincidence so many times that I think it actually works. I spray the mixture directly on my scalp and rub it in with my fingertips. There is a slight cooling action from evaporation and eventually the peppermint. When applied before bed at around 10-12 midnight, I wake up at the crack of dawn, naturally, without fail. Its mildly annoying! When not used I wake up much later in the morning, and usually get up frequently at night. So i’m not sure what’s worse!

Would like to make this into an aromatic perfume somehow. Any suggestions? At some point I was hoping to make this a finished product for sale. So far all I have is negative income from all of my research and experimenting. What an expensive "hobby"!

amber perfume

damn it to hell my lotion smells like dill and cucumbers, a sea of cucumbers by bath and body works is what my friend said and i wanted to throw it away. whatever. he was using axe products when i met him. anyway i made a simple fresh amber perfume and got to smell it again today, thank god i wrote the formula down because i love it and want to repeat it. though, without the lavender alcohol i made it might not smell the same. so there are variations.
it smells of vanilla, sandalwood, musk, lavender extract, and heliotrope. the lavender alcohol i made, its green, and it smells of hay and dried grass and lavender. the amber perfume is very nice and mild and natural smelling even though its mostly aroma chems in the lavender alcohol as a base.  still going to make an amber using essential oils only. labdanum, im almost out and want to try it from a different supplier to get a better sense of it. and vetiver, sandalwood and benzoin. im dreaming of it because i made something similar and the smell was amazing resinous and balsamic but im not sure if i have a good handle on what balsamic smells like. or resinous for that matter. the vetiver from botanic planet is so good it smells like a perfume on its own. just amazing. and the magnolia leaf in low dilution was like how farnesol smells in trace. i made a .01 in 10 grams and it smells similar to isobutavan, to me, it has a vanilla cream aspect to it. im not sure though since i only have so few chemicals to smell. mostly im super impressed with learning the ratios of using the essentials oils when i look up demo formulas in the good scents company, like this recent chypre i copied. ive been using these oils for years now but never figured out the concentrations for example petitgrain, i would never use it higher than other oils or corriander seed which i recently bought but havent used much due to its strength, i wouldnt pair it at the same ratio of anything but in the chypre formula i copied from good scents the ratios of these strong materials is very high, same with the galbanum, such a strong material, but the smell is great in this formula, i can tell how much i over dosed based on the formula (tweaked the ratios as well as made lots of substitution) and im just really glad i found this new hobby to learn how to use the essential oils as perfume. most of the perfumes im making could be all essential oils if i could afford them because these chemicals are really strange, for example farnesol has a anti fugal activity ? or is it anti bacterial, on a certain organism. on human skin. i do not remember the concentration because i dont think i read the entire study, but i do remember the sandalore concentration and its something like .005 lol. really miniscule. that was the concentration in the cream preparation or what did they use to apply it, on the skin, for the sensors to sense the chemical in its atmosphere to stimulate a growth stage of hairs. they dissected mice for this. there are close up pictures of the mice hairs sliced ala damien hurst, growing. pretty intense. im not sure if the study detailed humans? now that im recalling the horror of reading this study just to prove science, im getting rather ill and wonder if it was actually the sandalore study. oh man to be a mouse in a little test zone...oh wait. .
so i was going to rereate the amber perfume but i should buy pipettes. the tiny sample bottles are wasted with little drips around the rims when i use a toothpick to guide the drops, so inaccurate as well. all my formulas since i stopped reusing droppers have been pure luck or misfortune, for example the galbanum overdose. ugh. . .
because i wonder what the smoking violets perfume would smell like with an amber base. havent even finished my design for the label.  did housekeeping today and have some money to buy supplies even though i shouldnt because its not what i should be doing. woops. so greedy vs reality. but single use droppers are absolutely essential ever since my black agar and smelled like it had cassis. ugh.. also found a low cost .001 scale with the auto shut off feature shut offable.
ahh im just touching my hands that were over dry but now totally smoothed over from using the lotion. an amber lotion would be choice! now that i know how to make a fluffy and creamy lotion, this is the formula i wanted for the smoking violets lotion. just hadnt made it yet, and still havent because i made the formula in my head as it was coming along and it was over 100% hmmm also the lotion has some ethanol in it and i could feel it on my over dry skin the first time i put it on, it was like yeow, same thing when i put it on my face, around my nose, it stung yikes, but wow on my hands it was super stingy but worth it i guess because my hands cured super fast and the skin smoothed over. and it doesnt sting when i use it anymore. there was broken / dry skin so it stung. much like when i used the lavender alcohol diluted on over dry plus lye fume burned hands. for the lotion i used .10 of sodium lactate and 2% ipm and 2% dimethicone as recommended in swifts lotions, 78% water so its really fluffy with mostly peach kernel oil. ahhh im so pleased and want that amber lotion! im lucky to have these comforts. oh yeah actually i fudged when my bank was locked i was in the middle of supply shopping and actually i had some preservatives in a bought cart i couldnt pay for. my preservative is all clumpy and done. i should have added it to glycerine or something, i have some in peg 400 but no one uses that stuff topically. and i have the phenoxyethanol and caprylyl glycol stuff but its not antifungal. sighing til diy'ing. oh yeah and i forgot about my new use for xylitol. hey wheres my lame go fund me <<<<< insert link hither

perfuming lotions

Lotion!
made a lotion last night its so nice. with peach kernel oil, pumpkin seed, almond oil, it has silicone and ipm and custom perfume blends.
watery thick and scented lightly and non obtrusively, my fave
made 200 grams (two scents) and made this accord i thought is like
dirty white petal - creamy green - watery
its got hyacinth, and magnolan and magnolia leaf essential oil, green notes like undercavertol, and creamy watery green like trace of farnesol, and i cant remember the rest... heliotropex n, and isobutavan, oh yeah
its linear and clean and i don't really know what im doing but matching scents i like to compile for a perfume.
for the other bottle its the leather green chypre with .06 too much galbanum, so i added bergamot and amyris and extra clearwood and juniper berry and spruce. its also got petitgrain, copied a recipe found in the good scents for a chypre but with loads of substitutions for the aroma chems and some essential oils i dont have anymore like fir needle, don't think i ever had it, subbed it with juniper berry and spruce and was going to add borneol crystal but didn't. used veramoss and treemoss and oakmoss and the leather accord with castoreum, lots of Sicilian lemon oil, and lemonile, a very tiny amount, so i think it turned into a woody colognpre. it started as an airy ozone (too)green leather chypre ?it has coriander seed, Virginia cedar wood, and a rose blend with triplal and other green notes, bergamot as top, sandalwood ebanol combo (oh i did not add musk ketone) its also got green coffee oil which i think is gone bad already (so sad wth) or i need to change the container. ugh. those plastic droppers are killer. and it also has tobacco. it hasn't developed and i will try to make it again because my recipe vs my reality was most inaccurate. lol. no pipettes imagine that.
In the lotion the colognpre will have to wait on its second opinion. Meanwhile I'm enjoying mine and will try it as an after shower full body lotion.

essential oil perfume blends

no live tweeting a soap trial tomorrow because busy in the morning.
i just made an oil blend and it smells wonderful
benzoin, sandalwood, and vetiver. its this classic scent i have smelled before. it also kind of smells like "nag champa" but really, really nice. camphorous, woodsy, powdery, sweet, resinous, its pretty amazing.

its tricky standardizing the recipes for the perfume blends i make without supplies, syringes, small glass vials, a better scale, the list goes on. i can drop approximates forever but standardizing a blend is impossible for me right now

 i want to sell these blends in little roll on bottles for $5 each because i would totally buy an essential oil perfume for $5 even if it was so small. there is a small shop near my house that sells miniature roll ons for a dollar each.

want to get some dilluting vials at the dollar store to smell all the new oils.
the organizing and making accurate and right is endless and tiring. you got to learn to let go of ocd and just add a drop here and a drop there and be ok with not being a scientist in a lab.

--

ok i just tried to give this guy who wears axe some of my new blend and he said its for women, its perfume (guys wear cologne)
and im like,
insulted. lol.

so probably my products arent for the axe wearing crowd unless i get my costs down hella and swarm mens product advertising with muscle-y guys.

i wonder what my perfume / cologne commercial would be?

hmmm... lets have an imagination sequence...... commencing in ten minutes.

.:

the commercial is a muted high contrast but light and somewhat slightly gritty
its people walking around the city
and its the aromatic molecules wafting
and it looks like heat rising from hot concrete after a rain
or heat coming off cars in grid lock
and the wafting 
is a saturated slightly more colourful than the rest
its people coming and going on transit
on sidewalks
in the subway
some people follow the person absentmindedly
some notice and make it a point to follow along breathing the scent
some only notice when the person arrives
then its muted again
and when the person leaves, a waft of wavy blurring colour
and the person who noticed looks up and watches the person walk on

but i dont know when to advertise the name or brand?
maybe its just a black and white screen afterwards or something boring
or its a behind the scene look at someone putting some on before they go out
