With the economy going bonkers and our bank balances getting smaller, the time has finally come to cut down on buying the frivolous things in life such as perfume. With the price of perfume going up and the amount of money we can afford to spend on them, it is no wonder that sales of such luxuries have gone down with more and more people looking at learning how to make perfume rather than buying the brand name options.
Making perfume is not as difficult as it sounds and with a few simple ingredients and a good set of guidelines you will find that you can make perfume at home to rival and of the branded ones that you would normally buy.
There is a basic formula for knowing how to make perfume and the figures that you will need to remember are 15 to 30 percent of essential oils and 70 to 80 percent of pure grain alcohol. Add into the mix 5% of distilled water and you have the ingredients necessary to make perfume. For more affordable options, vodka can be used as the alcohol and essential oils can be substituted for cheaper fragranced oils and distilled water can be bought for fairly cheap in most stores.
To come up with the perfect fragrance you will need to play around with various essential or fragrance oils so that you get the right combination. Learning how to make perfume is not just a matter of throwing a few different fragrances together and hoping for the best! Once you have come up with the right combination, you should ideally let the perfume settle for around three weeks to a month and this ensures that it will be a strong perfume instead of a whimpering scent that doesn’t last much longer than five minutes.
There are plenty of fragrances and essential oils that you can play around with to create the perfect perfume and learning how to make perfume at home can be simple.
