The Recipe of Beau

As promised here is the recipe for Beau. I havn't done long optimization tests, it is basically created by assumptions. So if somebody has ideas how to improve it, please go ahead.

1. The Composition:
Pheromones per 100 ml:
- 6-Oxo or Androstenetrione: 35 mg
- DHEA: 35 mg
- 7-keto DHEA: 35 mg
- Pregnenolone: 35 mg

Support substances per 100 ml:
- Vanillin: 100 mg
- Oud: 60 mg
- Iso-E-Super: 4 g
- Sylvamber: 2 g
- Hedione: 3 g
- Galaxolide: 6 g

Solvant: 15 % DPG in Ethanol

Pheromones per ml:
350 µg for each pheromone giving in total 1.4 mg/ml pheromone content.
If you calculate with approx. 25 drops per ml there are in total 50 µg pheromones per drop.

2. Sources of Substances
The source of all the support substances is https://www.pellwall.com/
A very good UK-based supplier, you probably get it also from the US-based https://shop.perfumersapprentice.com/

Ethanol is finest drinkable wine-destilled 96.5% alcohol

The pheromones come in capsules or tablets. Most interesting is the 6-oxo. I've got mine years ago from the UK-based https://www.predatornutrition.com/estrog...6-oxo.html , but it seems not longer available at this site. Fusion supplements 6-oxo seems to be available from Poland, but my Polish isn't good enough to read these web pages.

Pregnenolone, 7-keto DHEA and DHEA I've bought online, also years ago, and unfortuneatly I don't have the suppliers anymore, but these substances seems still to be widely available as supplements.

3. Procedures
All the prohormones come typically in 25 or 50 mg capsules, which weight 500 to 1000 mg, so there is a lot of fillers, typically rice starch or magnesium stearate. I empty the capsule into a tightly closeable plastic or glass container. Tablets are finely grounded. Than I add enough alcohol to get a 2500 µg/ml solution. I made a 100 ml stem solution of each of the 4 prohormones. If the container size is close to the volume it's best for the material lost. I had actually very nice tight 120 ml laboratory containers, usually used to collect urine samples for medical analysis. Just perfect for this.
Oh, and pristine, never actually used for the intended application

I close the container and let it rest for about a week, giving it shake twice a day or so. Than I let it sink and rest for 2 days, in which all the filler stuff sinks to the containers bottom and even kind of solidifies. I use than a pipette to get the clear solutions into brown laboratory glass bottles. You get 95% of the liquid by that way with very little filler in the stem solution, I find that more effective than filtering.

And than I mix the Beau with these stem solutions and all the other substances.
There are very cheep tiny pocket scales available online which help in the process.

Yeah, that is pretty much how I made Beau. I will soon write also down the PEA recipe...

Thanks for sharing your mad scienstit cooking recipe,


I also received your package today. No likeage but the envelope has a good smell!

I will see what I can get from your mix and report back. Testing takes time so I will take my time before giving feedback

Sorry...

Noted! Thank you.

And many thanks for sharing the formula with the rest of us!

Got mine a few hours ago, will try it out today. I'll write a review once I'm finished with it.

To all who have got the samples:
The orange stuff is my Pea mix. I use 1 drop only, and try to keep it away from my nose. Good app points are imho the wrists or lower on the body.
With higher dosages I've got headaches before. It is really strong. One drop and I feel like drugged. In low doses it's great, just start that slowly.

How many mcgs of PEA per drop MA?

500 mcg / ml
With 25 drops / ml this should be 20 mcg / drop.

What always needs to be considered is the rate of evaporation. This makes the intensity of the experience. It's a difference if 20 mcg are gone in 10 min or 10 hours.
Imho the problem with PEA is that it is so volatile.
Therefore I mixed it with a lot of fixatives. And most prominent that copolymer I used. It is actually non-fragrance hair spray. I put alcohol in a rigid plastic bag (same material I ship the samples) and emptied a bottle of hair spray into the bag. Afterwards I weighted it and added alcohol to make a 50% polymer in alcohol solution.

I hope this fixate the PEA much better and leads to a long-lasting slow release of it.

That's my theory at least.

Don't stress over it, what you have is just overkill lol.

I don't see myself having PEA on for more than 4 hours and with the amount of fixatives (minus hairspray) it would have boosted it to that duration. Honestly , it could have been as simple as having the PEA diluted in a carrier oil and applied on a place where there is lotion

I'm also curious with how it smells. Did you take into account your top middle and bottom notes?

Oud is here to stay as well as the musk. They are too heavy to evaporate first

Based on my testing with ISO, because of its woody base that too is something that longer for a long while.

Hi MA,
Do you apply Beau in drops or in spray? I have transferred the content of the product in a sprayer but I have not tested it yet. I don’t want to waste so was wondering if you can advice how it works best for you as I have no idea about dosage starting point.
