Key Accords of famous fragrances

[chyprefresh]

I have a solid imitation of Acqua Di Gio Profumo, PM me if you want it, it's far from basic for this thread tbh.

That was just to say that the precise components and ratios of the classic perfumery accords are not set in stone and that whatever I give you will not be any sort of definitive or conclusive accord. But for fun here are some 4-6 material fragrance family accords to play with.

Fougere: lavandin (5%-15%), geranium eo (1%-5%), coumarin (2%-8%), amyl salicylate (1%-6%), hedione (5%-10%), tonalid (1%-5%)
Amber: bergamot (10%-25%), vanillin (0.5%-3%), ethyl vanillin (2%-4%), labdanum resinoid (0.5%-4%), rose abs (1%-5%), jasmine base (0.5%-2.5%)
Cologne: lemon (10%-20%), bergamot (5%-15%), bitter orange (1%-6%), petitgrain (1%-7%), cis 3 hexenol (0.05%-0.5%), basil (0.2%-1%)

Thanks a lot!

The problem...

No problem at all.
Very helpful.
I'll handle the rest.

In my understanding, the fougère accord absolutely requires mossy and/or woody/ambery effects. In particular, the interplay of mossy/woody/ambery with amyl/isoamyl salicylate effects is foundational.

OK
Let's say 2-5% Oakmoss, 1-4% Cedarwood.
Amber in what range would it be good? 2-5%?

I like sandalwood and vertofix in a fougere. TF Beau de Jour uses cedramber. I don't think amber resins are used much in fougere. I don't personally like a detectable amount of oakmoss in my fougeres and personally like the effect of patchouli more than oakmoss in a fougere. Infinite variations really, go wild.

I found this on TGSC while working on my aroma chemicals list.
Maybe someone will find it useful.

Violettyne (undeca-l,3-dien-5-yne), Neofolione (methyl non-2-enoate), or Undecavertol (4-methyldec-3-en- 5-ol) are the main materials used to replicate the effect of methyl heptyne carboxylate, most notoriously associated with Jean-Louis Sieuzac’s Fahrenheit (Dior, 1988).
