What is your favorite perfume recipe?

I have a number of different fragrance oils I have purchased. I have found some of them combined are quite lovely and would like to make my own perfume. I have read some recipes online but would like to know you favorite recipes!





Here is what I have : Rose, Honeysuckle, Vanilla, Frankincense, Patchouli, Myrrh, and Spring Rain. I opened the Vanilla, Honey Suckle, Pachouli, Frankincense, and then set them together. I waved my hand to get a whiff of smell (instead of direct nose to bottle) and I like this combination.





I know an easy method to make a simple perfume by using vodka, the oils, distilled water, and glycerin. I know the oils are different depending on how you want the scent to smell so I can make that decision on my own. What proportions would be appropriate for the vodka, water, and glycerin?





Any helpful insights would be awesome. I'm not trying to run a perfume shop here I am just exploring with what I have.





Thank you.

Hey, a fellow perfumista! When I was a kid I was always getting in trouble for mixing my Mom's perfumes and I still enjoy mixing! A really easy thing to do is to pick up some J.R. Watkins lemon oil at target and use it under any floral fragrance. it seems to "freshen" it in the same way that lemon freshens many foods. I'm sorry, I don't know about the vodka but it sounds interesting. I usually just mix something in the palm of my hand and apply it if it smells good! Here's a link to a great site for perfume making. I just bought some Mandarin Neroli oil from them. http://www.wholesalesuppliesplus.com/Pro...

Reply:I thought I'd just tell you that fragrance oils are synthetic %26amp; petroleum derivatives and they are not good to use. (fake chemically formed oils.) I use essential oil which are safe %26amp; natural and have great fragrance also. I use vodka or jojoba oil mixed with a few drops of each essential.





Hope this helps!!!
