  • Making your own perfume is such an awesome thing to do - its personalised, more affordable and avoids nasty chemicals. I really love the smell of the natural perfume that i’m sharing in this video, and it’s so simple to make! I am obviously not a professional perfume maker - this just covers the basics of making your own perfume, and it works well for me :)
    My Homemade Perfume;
    - 30ml pure vodka -need about ~90drops essential oils to make 15%
    - 2/3 tsp homemade vanilla extract = 55drops
    - 12 drops frankincense www.iherb.com/aura-cacia-100-p...
    - 4 drops vetiver
    - 12 drops lavender www.iherb.com/now-foods-essent...
    - 6 drops tangerine
    Things to note;
    - Use dark /not transparent bottle to keep perfume from going rancid over time or store in place that isn’t exposed to sunlight
    - Make sure your lid is firmly attached to prevent oxidation
    - The purer the alcohol for the base the better
    - Test a little of essential oils on skin first to ensure no reaction.
    - Mix in glass avoid metal or plastic.
    - Add base oils then mid notes then high notes
    - Bottle and leave for a few weeks to blend together before using
    For perfume use; 15% essential oil. 1ml =about 20drops. So for 10ml base alcohol/oil = 1.5ml and 1.5x20 = 30 drops essential oil

    Some nice perfume recipes;
    #1
    - 10 drops lavender
    - 12 drops bergamot
    - 6 drops neroli
    - 2 drops jasmine
    - 7 drops rose
    - 20 ml alcohol/vodka
    #2
    - 10 drops orange essential oil
    - 20 drops lemon
    - 10 drops tangerine
    - 15 drops frankincense
    - 10 drops neroli

    As a Perfumer, you NEVER use Vodka! Use Perfumers Alcohol Denatured. THAT is why you have a filmy, foggy look to your perfume...Research before you tell others how to do their own scents. I GUARANTEE your perfume will not only go sour, but the fragrance will fade very quickly! Trust me, I learned by THESE MISTAKES, and that is how we learn...

    I had a perfume blending lesson in Grasse, France last year where I learnt how to blend a harmonic perfume. First you need to be blind-folded and choose the base note you like. Then you choose a variety of body notes and drop some on test papers (the ones you get from perfume shops). You put the test paper together with your base, see if they go together. Then you blend your base and body together, and repeat the test-paper-process with top note.

    I use essential oils in my bath and with facial oil, I thought it would be too hard to make perfume but you make it so easy to understand, will rush out tomorrow and stock up on my favourite oils and vodka!! PS I first got interested in oils years ago when I met a lady from Israel who used oils she smelled sooooooh good I had to ask her what she used, I think it was patchouli and rose so I will try that!

    @gristlevonraben 4 роки тому +62

    Sorry but the drops are too many for such a small bottle. The recipe you posted would be okay for a pint of alcohol, or two cups. Tangerine and other citrus oils can burn skin at those amounts, and cinnamon and cloves and nutmeg can burn skin at one drop per cup, so you have to use micro drops and dilutions. But it sounds like it would be a great perfume.

    Ella, th is is great. I made it and love the smell, but your proportions don’t add up. 3.4ml of vanilla extract is 68 drops, not 55 as you mentioned. Does it matter? Should we do the 55 drops, or the 3.4ml?
    Also, you mentions 90 drops of essential oil, is that including the vanilla (since you only used 34 drops of ess. oil total)? Thank you for your great channel!❤
