If you had to choose one piece of equipment that's really worth investing in for perfumery, it would probably be a precision balance. A good set of scales allows you to accurately weigh small amounts, meaning you can reduce the size of your trials and save on raw material expenditure.
This set of scales is made for a scientific laboratory, allowing you to weigh out your perfume formulas with 0.001g precision. The scale includes a calibration weight and power adapter, although it can also be powered with a 9v battery. A wind-shield is also provided to help mitigate against minute weight deviations due to air currents. This scale offers excellent value as an entry level professional scale.

The scale arrived within just a few days and was very well packaged. The scale itself is highly accurate, and I really like the protective acrylic draft shield that comes with it, which prevents air movement from affecting the measurements.
The buttons are intuitive and easy to use, and the scale isn't any more complicated than it needs to be. It's also the best price I've found for a scale with this level of accuracy and weighing capacity.
I'm really happy with my purchase and would definitely recommend it!
Fast delivery
Will definitely order from them again. The only criticism I have is that they don’t have everything I need available, but that’s ok, they seem to be expanding often
Very good quality of a scale! Delivery on time
Great scale, have been using it a lot already. Having a precision of 0.001g vs 0.01g makes it so much easier to create accurate dilutions and weigh out small batches. And being able to connect it to AC as well as use it wireless by inserting a battery is very handy (in case you quickly want to measure something, you don't need to plug it in necessarily). And it has a windshield! So great value for money imo.
One tip if you're having issues assembling the windshield: a drop of oil can help to make the plastic plates slide more easily so you don't end up breaking anything :)
