Hi, would these measurements fit into a 1oz bottle? I will be hosting a bridal shower next weekend & want to make sure they are able to feel the vessels.

[@spiritandsystems]

Did you use all of the fragrance oil that you blended, or was there some still left over? Thank you! Exited to try!

[@Nikibaby74]

There was some left

What about perfume base oils? Recommendations? This is the first vid I've watched on perfumery her.

[@makesyofficial]

The most popular perfume based oil is coconut oil, but any oil will work just fine :)

I have 2 quick questions. Can fragrance oils be diluted in perfumes alcohol like essential oils?
And I bought a material called benzoin 20% dpg pourable. Is that already pre diluted in 80% dpg? And can that be mixed with materials that were diluted in perfumers alcohol?
Thanks in advance!

[@makesyofficial]

Hi there! Yes they can. You can find our recommended percentages on each individual fragrance page. We are not familiar with benzoin. I would recommend reaching to your manufacturer to find out what can and can't be mixed in.

Hi, i see you only use FO and perfumers alcohol. In our place we have DPG, fixative and perfumers alcohol. May I ask what's the difference

[@makesyofficial]

We strive to provide the most natural low VOC option. We are not as familiar with DPG and fixative but prefer to avoid added chemicals.

It's great that you're exploring different components in perfumery. Fragrance Oils (FOs) and the materials you mentioned-DPG (Dipropylene Glycol), fixatives (usually heavier molecular raw materials like musks, woods, resins), and perfumers alcohol-all play unique roles in the creation of perfumes.
Fragrance Oils are complex mixtures of aroma compounds, which provide the distinct scents in perfumes. These are often synthetic or natural blends created to replicate specific fragrance notes.
DPG is commonly used as a diluent for powders, crystals, and high impact raw perfumery materials (like indole, geosmin, ambrocenide crystals, etc.) in commercial perfumery. It is less volatile than alcohol and helps in diluting and stabilizing the fragrance oils, that would otherwise fall or of solution when water is added and temperature changes. DPG is miscible in water, oil, and alcohol making it the perfect diluent in commercial fine fragrances. However, DPG should not be used in candles or soaps because dpg will seize soaps and mess up the hot and cold throws in candles. This is why fragrance oils designed for soaps and candles should never be used in making fine fragrance. Fine fragrance is category 4 and safe for the skin, whereas fragrance oils for candles tend to contain highly restricted materials such as benzyl benzoate.
Fixatives are ingredients that increase the longevity of the perfume on the skin. They slow down the evaporation rate of the more volatile components in the perfume, thus preserving the fragrance's integrity over time. These are built into the fragrance not only for their fragrance characteristics but also for their effects. For example, musks are heavy molecules and provide fixative properties and can provide overall blooming effect so that more volatile materials, such as citruses, can be anchored and slowed down.
Perfumers alcohol, on the other hand, is a solvent used to dissolve and blend fragrance oils. It helps in dispersing the scent evenly and enhances the application process. When the alcohol evaporates after application, it leaves the fragrance oils on the skin.
Each of these components contributes to the overall performance, longevity, and character of a perfume. In your case, using DPG, a fixative, and perfumers alcohol in conjunction with fragrance oils can lead to well-balanced and lasting scents.
Most commercial high end fragrances are 8% to 10% commercial standard. Less is more in most cases. 30% can be too much and can actually be too heavy. 10%, if the fragrance is built correctly, will perform beautifully!
