Perfume making at home

Super strong perfume that lasts 6+ hours 



Items needed - 

  • Essential oils - 2 or more the better
  • Perfume storage glass container [ it has to be glass as pure essential oil disintegrates anything other than glass over time ]
  • Carrier oil - Olive / Extra Virgin Coconut oil
  • Syringe

  • Measure equal quantities of essential oils of your choosing, in this case i used 0.1 ml of each oil [ marked by 2 red arrows on this 5 ml syringe ] and put into a glass container. I used an empty 10 ml essential oil bottle 
  • Measure about 7 ml of Carrier oil into your glass container
  • Close with screw type lid & shake until all essential oils + carrier oil mix properly
  • Open perfume container lid while keeping your finger tightly pressed on the top & tilt it [ once ] upside down, and tilt it back to right side up. Remove finger from the top of the bottle & you will see a drop worth of essential oil + carrier oil on your finger tip, apply that on your body. One drop per side of the body is [ all thats needed ]. 
  • Given I used a 10 ml bottle, mixing 0.1 ml of 3 essential oils equaling 0.3 ml + 7 ml Carrier Oil results in [ Super Strong Perfume ] which lasts 6+ hrs with just one application. 
  • Please DONT over do it, as it is, its pretty strong.
  • For a larger container, mix 0.2 ml of each essential oil of your choosing + Carrier Oil 
  • Try not to apply this drop on your skin which comes in contact with clothes or anything other than skin on skin, as pure essential oil resulting in fabric/ plastic/ metal disintegration over time 




My Home made perfume using Lemon/ Jasmine/ Rose  stored in a 10 ml bottle + body lotion made of same ingredients stored in a shower gel 250 ml bottle



If perfume can be stored as seen in above pic, so much the better as there are two lids holding your perfume guaranteeing the strength wont decrease over time like most shop purchased perfumes do.
