Does anyone knows if the Iso E Super selling on ebay from that guy in Europe the same as the one sold by Perfumer's Apprentice?

I'm still coasting on my 80ml bottle from purfumer's apprentice. Great stuff. I've heard ambergris is a good compliment to iso e super so I went back to the website when I remembered from my meeting with Jinzo that he suggested Sylvamber - which is also on PA's site. I wore sylvamber for one day with my applicatipon of GOA and damn that stuff (the scent and the pheromone) lasted all day. I don't really notice iso e super increasing longevity of pheromones, although the scent itself does last a long time. I'm not sure how Sylvamber compares to ambergris, can anyone comment on this?

Here are the links.

Sylvamber is basically the same as Iso E, but with another isomer-ratio. It features more gamma-isomers than Iso E.

Can't detect much similarities between either and real ambergris tincture, whch is not the same as synthetic Ambroxan.
Both Iso E/Sylvamber and Ambroxan are C16-molecules though.

Ah, I see. They do smell almost identical so that makes sense.
I'm tempted to combine all 3 into a sprayer bottle for shits and giggles I'll be back to report my findings if I do this.

Looking forward to your report on those results...

Arsenic,

How'd that go for ya?

I ordered some Iso E Super along with some Timbersilk, Ambroxan and Sylvamber from Perfumers Apprentice.

From what I understand these are supposed to increase diffusion throw of not only colognes, but Pheromones as well (why wouldn't they?)
There are differing opinions, but supposedly you can come pretty close to creating the Molecule 01 cologne with the Iso E Super. I will attempt this.

There are also writings that these should not be used 'at full strength.' It sounds like they need to be diluted in either DPG or alcohol. Does anyone have any guidance on this?

I might play around with each individually, as well as with combining some of them to see how that works. Arsenic had said he may do this back in April.

Lately I have been using the Iso E that I got in concentrated form from Cinis Labs and have put 10% by volume into my colognes, etc. I'd read somewhere that was the maximum recommended amount. It really seems to enhance the longevity as well as the sillage.

I second this. Am still experimenting with Iso. And I wanna find out the right amount for me. Whether it's 10 or 50 %. But I can see some good effects in the cold nights.

I wonder what happens if you use more than 10%? Your dick falls off, or something? Maybe it turns you all Fabio-like and then you don't have to use 'mones anymore. Maybe it's just a waste of product after that point.
