Part 2. Buy dark glass containers. Many people recommend using dark glass containers because the dark glass helps protect your perfume from light, which can shorten its lifespan. The exception to this would be if you actually wanted to use the scent of what was in the glass container before. Warning: peanut-butter-banana-chocolate perfume might taste better than it smells! Buy a carrier oil. A carrier oil is what carries the scents in a particular fragrance on to your skin.
These are generally unscented, and are used to dilute concentrated oils and aromatics that can otherwise irritate your skin. Your carrier oil can really be anything. One popular perfumer simmers rose petals in virgin olive oil, then combines it all with vitamin E oil to stabilize it. Buy the strongest alcohol you can find.

Two common aromatics used for perfume are plant materials flowers, leaves, and herbs and essential oils; the methods vary for each of these. Part 3. Obtain a clean glass container. The container also needs to have a tight-fitting lid. But having dark containers also helps for preserving. Obtain an odorless oil. Popular choices for use in perfumes include jojoba oil, almond oil, and grape seed oil.
Collect flowers, leaves, or herbs whose scent appeals to you. Be sure to collect plant materials when the scent is strong and the leaves are dry. Letting them air out can leave them limp and with a less effective scent. Remove any unwanted plant materials. Bruise the plant materials lightly. This step is optional, but may help to bring out the scent more.
Pour some oil into the glass container. Add the plant materials to the oil and shut the lid. Ensure that the lid is closed tightly. Open, strain and repeat.
You can repeat this process for several weeks or even months until the oil has reached the desired strength. Be sure to keep the oil! Preserve your scented oil. Part 4. Gather your materials. Add your essential oils. Start with your base notes, then add your middle notes, then add your top notes. Add the alcohol. Use a high-quality alcohol with a high alcohol content. Vodka is a popular choice amongst DIY perfumers. Allow the perfume to sit for at least 48 hours.

If using only oils water and alcohol there shouldn't be any particulate matter. The coffee filter is used because after the sitting process, there develop some minute particles that, when mixed with water, can be seen in a transparent bottle.
That's why you need a coffee filter, to prevent any cloudiness. Keep it on hand for whenever your skin is parched! Cologne uses vodka to dilute the essential oils.

The vodka reduces sweat and handles odors, making it an excellent natural deodorant option that doubles as a cologne! Just combine your favorite carrier oil with your favorite essential oil scent.
To safely use on the skin, EOs must be diluted. Just remember that for every tablespoon of carrier oil, you should add between 6 and 10 drops of your EO blend. The oil in it will leave your skin smooth and silky, especially in the winter. This moisturizing and natural SPF-containing!

Hope to hear from you at your earliest convenie. Why spend a fortune on perfume or cologne when you can make your own for cheap. Instead of wearing a fragrance that everyone else wears you can make your own unique blend. Your own aromatic creations also makes a thoughtful gift.
Sterilize the bottles and jars in the dish washer, especially if you are reusing bottles. They need to be clean and sterile. Once you are happy with the fragrance that you've created it is time to let it age. Place it in a cool dark location for a minimum of 48 hours, up to a month. Aging your fragrance allows the scents to mingle, and also become stronger. Once you have aged your fragrance for the desired length of time, smell it again, the mingling may have changed the overall scent, so feel free to add a few more drops of scent to tweak it don't forget you will need to age it again, if more scent was added.
Pour the perfume into your bottle, use a funnel if you need to. If you are using clear bottles, you will need to cover them with aluminum foil or wrapping paper your fragrance needs to be protected from the light or it will go off. Add a label, decorate it, give it a fancy name and be happy that you saved a lot of money!
