Woah highly appreciate the support mate and for entering me into the contest! :D 

The Fullness of it can only be truly experienced, but the words can impart an inkling of the fragrance the exploration offers pursuing the craft!

Yes I am very much investigating the historical techniques both in perfumery and alchemy, and there are many interesting aspects that bridge the two realms. 

I will be producing my own essential oils to a small extent for my perfumery, yet at the same time, these same oils are also used in alchemy to create potent elixirs. What is interesting if you produce an alchemical preparation of the plant properly, the scent profile of the oil changes tremendously over time, literally sweetening and changing in complexity. 

Offering entirely other dimensions of scent, similar to its raw essential oil, but acquiring depth, sweetness, complexity that transforms it entirely.

I practice both alchemy and perfumery, and along the line there are moments where there is an opportunity to bridge them both practically. 

Spiritually or Internally, alchemy is a holographic means of relating to life that is applicable to any Art or Craft or even Life Approach. 

I formulate my own perfume recipes, the alchemical preparations are different in that you always work with one singular plant or material, so there is no recipe per se involved in that only technique is involved in those depending on what your material is or which plant it is.

Alchemy practically transmutes one thing through evolution into a higher form.

Perfumery creates a relation between different materials, allowing the integration of  polarity/multiplicity in the truth of the unity that unites all souls. 

The alchemical preparations focus inwardly and transform from within to without. 

The Perfumery preparations are more relational in that their effect works from the outside penetrating within, by imparting lessons or acting upon how we relate to the world.
