- This video shows you step by step how to make your own DIY fragrance at home.
The formulation I used for this cologne was:
5 drops vanilla essential oil
4 drops sandalwood essential oil
3 drops frankincense essential oil
2 drops myrrh essential oil
4 drops lavender essential oil
5 drops rosewater
5 drops orange essential oil
5 drops bergamot essential oil
Just under 10 ml Propylene Glycol.
Mix it all together and add to a dark glass bottle.
Watches, Guns, Cologne, Watches? Might be my new favorite channel.
😂 all the things I like 👍🏻
Said watches already 💀💀💀💀💀
@@592xnlehe love watches 💯
@@flavor3563I think he really loves watches 💯
Same just subbed for the intro
My lady is a bit sensitive to the heavier colognes on the market. Thanks to you, my new cedarwood/vetier/leather/bergamot scent drives her wild. No negative reaction at all. Thanks for the video, it was concise and to the point.
Glad it could help you. My wife is the same way.
Imma give it a try!
That ending killed me was not expecting that Nice vid bro i made a scent and The lady's loved it but you taught me something new keep up the good work man🔥🔥
Wow! After watching this, I never knew we could make cologne. Now I am excited to do it for myself. Thank you for the video!
Bro how do you think we get cologne lol
Perfume and cologne have been literally used for thousands of years 😂.
@@Sniperpug5520We pray
very simple and to the point! good stuff man!
Thanks 🙏🏻
This is amazing. I have never made my own fragrance
And then sell it for $200.00 ?
Right!?! Entrepreneur found!
Thanks for you this, 4:29sec. Straight to the point!
Another thing I can do myself...thanks so much
Why do you use propylene glycol as a carrier? Im just trying to learn. What does that do? Also where did you buy those ingredients and tools?
Thanks for all the info. Can't wait to get my order of essentials oil, and start this new hobby.👍
i like your style
I just use my colognes and mix them and hope for the best
why use PG instead of alcohol or can you use both?
Keep up the good work bro 💪
Nice and brief. Ty!
Wow, I never thought its so easy to make your own cologne. Thank you @Burbinghard
does it smell just like a real cologne? or just like some good smelling herbal medicine
I've used mryhh oil for years, it's different. Couple years ago a gal whom I knew at the pub asked what that scent was( she wanted to get it for her main dude).. I forgot about for a while, but with t trouble in Yemen I think it might be worth the effort to make some. Could make some change on t side.😅
Where can i get the oils in the lil bottles
@@DiscreetHustle any place that sells essential oils, tonics or tinctures. I think the last ones I got were from Plant Therapy, but there are other sellers that carry high quality and all natural oils. Just do your research.
Where do you buy essential oils in bulk for a good price?
looking forward to trying this out
Just in the intro I thought, “wait, cologne? Watches?? Guns??? Outdoors????” That’s a sub from me and I’ve only seen this video.
To admitting our addictions 🍻 😂
Where to buy this all insturument sir
Can I use xanthium gum in place of Propylene Glycol?
Hey burbinghard, what does this cologne smell like?
Nice video 👏👏 finally I’ll try to bring back Black XS 2005
the base notes are the ones that you smell at the start the middle ones are the one you smell half way through and the top notes are the ones you smell more near the end?
@@shades448 other way around. The lighter notes usually are noticed first while the base notes are heavier and linger.
Thanks for the video. Is this diluted enough for 33 drops of essential oil? I am just learning about this stuff.
Some of it is preference, but yes 33 drops for one of these bottles would work. It can also vary depending on how “pure” or strong your oils are.
Just wondering the cost for 100ml
Isn't there usually some sort of alcohol included in the mix to help with projection?
Yes perfumers alcohol is usually used as the odor free carrier. The glycol is alcohol in this mix.
@@burbinghard Ah, okay. Thanks for explaining :)
can i use absolutes the same way instead of essential oils?
Great content where can I get the supplies to make my own
I liked the ending 😅😅
how would i put it in a 100ml bottle, and would there be a way i could add water to it?
Not sure how I came across this vid but tbh this is actually pretty Chadly.
😂
Whats does the food grade do to the cologne 🤔? (Glycol) What makes the scent last long?
I went with the food grade because your skin is an organ, and will absorb what you put on it. I don’t use any preservatives as most are harmful chemicals like formaldehyde. The downside is that an all natural cologne won’t last nearly as long so I need to reapply midday and evening.
@@burbinghard oh okay cool. What about the rose Mary water you added, what effect does it have on the smell?
@@larrylovejr82 it’s just to add a hint of a floral scent. It could just have easily been rose oil. They are made by different processes is all.
@@burbinghard oh okay cool, Thank you so much.
@@burbinghardwhat abt grapeseed oil
Where do u get all the oils and products to make your own fragrances?
Thanks ..Can someone just tell me how to mixed the discontinued Axe scent "Touch" is there a data base for scents and formulas?
hi, would you recommend sandal wood & mint combination?
What could you add to change the color?
I’m an all natural guy so I would rather not add something potentially harmful just to have a different color liquid. The glass itself can be a color so you don’t notice it, but I wouldn’t want to discolor my clothes from adding something like food color.
@@burbinghard ok thanks
@@fkgoogle666why would try to change the color
Should I immediately mix the ingredients or allow the fragrance to rest for a period of time?
I usually mix right away, but if time is no factor you can let them mix for 24-48 hours.
@@burbinghard thank you! I am looking into Fragrance designing to sell around my community. Perhaps if it’s well received I’ll start branching to online sales through a big market perfumery.
@@burbinghard I actually have another question. How is the longevity & projection on these fragrances? Usually synthetic fragrances have different chemicals to enhance the performance, and I was wondering how the homemade cologne holds up.
@@Daizlol yes without the chemicals like formaldehyde it doesn’t last or project as much. I typically have to reapply mid day.
What website should I buy the oils/concentrates from
Young Living
In the 90s me and my best friend tried to make cologne out of fruits and chips 😂😂
I've been seeing some vids say let it mature for 3 weeks is that something that has to be done or does it depend?
You can let it blend for a couple days. I haven’t noticed a huge difference though if I’m being honest.
Does it really save you a lot of money buying all those essential oils and do you end up having a huge amount of cologne that will expire?
@@vladfather916 I use the oils for other things like laundry, bathing, etc. I only make small batches at a time. I’m not sure I would make a large quantity to last years.
@@burbinghard love the idea and video, thank you
Realistically how much should colognes cost? I paid $140 AUD for YSL Myself on a staff discount and while it smells nicer than a cheaper cologne, I don't undderstand the price spike, I've used cheap ones from Miniso before that i got for $10. I want to find the middle ground where I get the most top quality for my money whilst not paying for brands and packaging, it is at the very end of the day all about scent. so name and bottle really doesn't matter
To a point I would agree. Different brands pay for advertising and endorsements so there would be an associated cost. Also using fake fragrances vs natural scents create a large price difference. A company using real ambergris for example has to pass that cost onto the consumer.
How Long Does It Last?
Where can i buy the stuff?
I purchased most of the items through Amazon. Food grade propylene glycol for the carrier, and most of the oils were from a company named Plant Therapy.
@@burbinghard and are those essential oils or plant terpenes?
Can you give us a list where we can get all of these. I found some of the oils on Amazon but not all of the ingredients I cant find.
I usually compare prices from different places but many of mine came from Plant Therapy.
I'm trying to make lotion bars. You smell diff when you're awake is my oldest pick up line.
let's figure this out! ty-to snap
Thank you Bro for the info. I'm trying this very thing. Is the best place to get the propeline glycol on line or can it be bought at a store ? Thanks again.
It’s pretty common so you could probably go with either option. Amazon or the local supermarket (if they stock it).
Use perfumers alcohol
AC3 should take notes on how to do a vid. Not into mixing potions but I knew if I watch this there is going to be a twist!
Great vid, but I'd avoid ethylene or propylene glycol as they are toxic (it's the active ingredient in antifreeze) over time even in small doses and can cause skin irritation and (edit)non-reproductive organ harm. Perhaps an (edit)isopropyl or similar alcohol delivery form may be a better alternative for those who aren't allergic?
I would disagree with your assessment that food grade propylene glycol is toxic. It is GRAS (regarded as safe) for consumption in the US and in the EU. Alcohol has a lower freezing temperature than water, therefore would have “anti-freezing” properties. If the EU allows it in food product, I’m generally alright with it being in my skin. I don’t want to use ingredients that aren’t safe for consumption as the skin absorbs what is on it. I haven’t found much literature showing a danger of propylene glycol.
Wtf is mm2 victory theme doin in here???
How would I make it so that i would have more fragrance, like 100 ml
You would need a larger bottle, more alcohol and more drops. However, without adding preservatives the scent may go a little stale before you use it all up.
Does it have good longevity?
To be honest, not really. I have to reapply later in the day. Chemicals, like formaldehyde, that increase longevity in store bought cologne are what I’m trying to avoid putting on my body and inhaling.
@@burbinghard thank you
I always wanted to be cologne store
if you only want one scent (in my case roses) can you do the same thang with only one oil and rosewater?
Rose water is mild enough, but many essential oils will cause irritation if applied directly to the skin. You would generally dilute a concentrated oil, or put it in a carrier oil at least.
Quick recipe for you to try:
Rose Otto diluted to 10% in fractionated coconut oil.
Add it to a rollerball and apply to skin.
Hey! I have a question i am trying to make a cinnamon scented colonge similar to the spice bomb one but it smelling more towards the mid smell (I refer to mid smell as when for example. When you first spray it. Its at its strongest then it goes to it middle smell which is alittle less strong type) is what i am trying to go to. Any recommendations? Or tutorials you may be able to help me with
Look up the notes in the Spice bomb and try blending them in small batches until you find the right blend. Cinnamon is a strong smell that might overpower the others. But you can play with your formula in small amounts until you find the right ratios. There might also be recipes online for the homemade version of the scent you’re looking for.
You won’t replicate a fragrance by looking at the notes. Notes aren’t reality, they’re marketing. You’re better off looking up similar fragrances and trying them out to see which lean in your preferred direction.
How many bottles of essential oils do you really need to make it
Any only the ones u wanna put
How do i make one in a bigger portion for a regular size cologne bottle
math
Song?
What would make it a perfume versus a toilette?!
Traditionally Eau De Toilette has less purity, while an Eau De Perfume has higher concentration of fragrance/oil. 8-12% is usually a toilette, 12-18% is a perfume.
Try Frankincense Sacra instead of serrata.
Bro did i see a gun too??????? Gah dammit you got a subscriber 😂
@@artkingdesingz94 😆 stay strapped! Thanks for the support mate.
@@burbinghard of course my boy✊🏽✊🏽i was trying to figure out how to make my own cologne but when i saw a lil 2A added in the mix i had to sub
Looks great. How long will it keep? And does the fragrance last once applied?
I make them in smaller batches and usually run out every 6 month. The scent needs to be reapplied mid day as it doesn’t have chemicals that prolong the scent like formaldehyde. 🤢
@@burbinghard Thank you for the help. Would it help to use perfumer's alcohol?
@@JaySinghIsImmature they are generally both ethanol alcohol. Good grade is readily available in stores and has been tested to be safe for human consumption.
@burbinghard..... Are you saying that the propelyne glycol is basically ethanol alcohol?
Will this work for a spray applicator?
Yes.
0:00 looksmaxing
That was great 😂❤
🙏🏻 thanks!
can you ise coconut oil for the carryer ?
I wouldn’t recommend it. Coconut oil has an odor to it, and would overpower the other notes. Some people do use oils as carriers, but more for therapeutic uses instead of as a fragrance carrier.
Fractionated coconut oil, yes. It’s more fluid and scentless
Will this last all day?
No. The downside of not using chemicals like formaldehyde is that the scent wont last as long. You need to reapply it mid day. Heavier base notes last longer than top notes though.
The ending😭
Please don’t put nutmeg in perfumes
Nutmeg and ginger is some of the best you can put middle
❤
👍👍👍
Hello. Is propelyn glycol the same as perfumers alcohol?
Not quite. Perfumers alcohol is typically a dipropylene glycol which is better at mixing alcohol based ingredients. Propylene Glycol is better at mixing oil based ingredients.
@@burbinghard thank you cheers
@@burbinghard i😊
this video is based
mm2 aahh music
So most of the time we’re getting charged $60+ on a cologne that costs cents or dollars at most to make. I’m definitely going to start making my own.
Most items we purchase are a large multiple of the cost of materials. Employees, staff, taxes, shipping, storage and overhead cost money. Also certain ingredients like ambergris can be very expensive (which I don’t use).
@@burbinghard I bet you're a big Hannibal (the movie) fan.
@@julesfalcone I’m not a big fan of movies in general, but I get the reference 😂
@@burbinghard I just ordered essential oils to make my own cologne. Glad I found your channel.
@@julesfalcone I hope you find combinations you love!
Anybody have a recipe for Sauvage?
Just buy one. It’s cheaper.
I'm really thinking I have to mix wood, flowers and other random s*** in some chemical mixture for awhile. 😅😅
I THOUGHT ALCHOHOL WAS INVOLVE IN THE INGREDIENTS.
Good enough for baby jesus huh WELL YA LEFT CANNABOSUM OUT!!
Yes, that is creepy
You got me?.....0:03
this made me laugh
😂😂😂
Nice)))But in the market so mach cheap and good francese)))IF somebody will be buy all this components and essential oils the price of the homemade profums will be cost like "Chanel"))If you like some profums that cost so much you can find clone or how nowadays seing "dupe" its sinonim of clone or similar sent.
The oils last a long time, and they are concentrated, so I think in the end it would save money. Also many common fragrance chemicals have links to health problems like hormone disruption, cancer, and others. I try to be careful with what I put on my body or inhale.
@@burbinghard you right.
Plz dont do that
Might as well go buy some cologne instead of buying all them ingredients...
This doesn’t have parabens though.
And I'm sure you can make multiple bottles from these ingredients. Especially seeing how. Tom Ford's like $200-$400 per bottle
@@serioussam2012except you won’t make a Tom Ford with these ingredients lol
Any alternative to propylene glycol?
Can I use alcohol as the carrier ?
Isopropyl is alcohol. “Drinking” alcohol (like vodka) has an odor to it so I wouldn’t recommend it.
Can you make me a signature fragrance??
Thank you for making a concise video.
Looks good, too.
Thx
Could I ask why not perfumes base? I purchased all you mentioned, but the formula seems to be thicker than average cologne
Perfumes base is usually denatured alcohol. It’s an ethyl alcohol base with additives that make it toxic to consume. I went with a food safe alcohol thinking it would probably have fewer unintended health issues.
Murder mystery 2 ahh music
XD
This is a great tutorial but you’re supposed to dilute the oils using water and/or alcohol for safe application to skin
Yes, I use food grade alcohol in the tutorial.
Essential oils are safe for the skin on there own anyways lol
Appreciate the video.
Question: - where did you get your U.S. Flag in the background?
Hey nice vid man, just wondering what is the longevity of the fragrances?
Since there are no artificial preservatives like formaldehyde and phthalates (that fragrance houses use) it doesn’t last all day. I apply again midday and at night if I want to.
I have a view questions man. Firstly can something like this be used as a spray fragrance or purely a roll on oil and what is the longevity and projection on a formula like this?
