I've been looking for some kind of aroma chemical or combo to recreate an "apple orchard" type of scent. If you've ever gone apple picking, that sort of sweet smell you get from the fallen apples on the ground and ripe apples on the tree. Not Jolly Rancher, tart, green, or dry, and definitely not apple pie. There are obviously a lot of options, but as you know, you can't just go by the descriptions online, so I thought I'd ask if anyone has experience using something like what I'm looking for.

I am relatively new to perfuming, but I am a fast learner and a very determined person when I really want to know how to do something. I made a fragrance based on a very specific profile I wanted to make (and wear) and I've been waiting for over a month for the perfume to mature. I wore it for the first time today and was visiting a family member in the hospital. 3 nurses came into the room at one point and they were all like "OMG what IS that that smells SO GOOD?" and were begging me to write the name of it down for them. I told them I made it myself and they couldn't believe it. I had just enough concentrate left to make up a few rollerball bottles, and I'll give it to them tomorrow when I go back. I hadn't even thought about the possibility of selling it one day, so this was unexpected and pretty incredible.

Hello! I'm relatively new to perfuming, so forgive me if I use the wrong terminology. Can anyone suggest a compound or accord I could make that would be similar to vanilla oleoresin? Deep and resinous rather than gourmand. I've been looking at options on Fraterworks but it's hard to go by the descriptions alone. I did buy some Vanellia which is nice, but not what I'm going for unless of course it is part of an accord. Just not knowledgeable enough at this point to know what to try with it. Thanks!

Hello! There is a type of floral that exists in a couple of commercial perfumes that I absolutely love, and I'm trying to recreate it. It's soft, airy, feminine...white florals but without any indole. I'm apparently very sensitive to it and to my nose, it is not sexy, narcotic, musky, etc. It's just disgusting. I understand that other materials in the accord affect whatever florals are in there and how they will ultimately be perceived, So...any advice on how to build this kind of accord? I'm trying not to be too wordy here, so please let me know if I'm not providing enough information.
