  1. Ingredients HERE YOU GO!

    • Essential oils

    • Pure grain alcohol (vodka)

    • Water

    Directions

    Perfume is simple to make, the trick is to put the essential oils together creating a smell you like. Perfume is made up of base notes (the smell stays the longest on your skin), middle notes (smell stays second longest), and top notes (smell of oil evaporates first). Because the oils all evaporate at different rates the perfume may smell different as time goes on. Below are listed easily found essential divided into base, middle and top notes.

    • Base notes-cedar wood cinnamon patchouli, sandalwood, vanilla

    • Middle notes-clove, geranium, lemongrass, bottle nutmeg, neroli, ylang-ylang

    • Top notes-bergamot, lavender lemon lime neroli

    • Bridge-vanilla, lavender (add a few drops to join base, middle and top notes together)

    To make your perfume, mix at least 25 drops total of essential oils divided evenly between base, middle and top notes. Start with the base notes, then middle, then top, smelling as you go. Add a few drops of the bridge oil. Add 2 1/2 ounces of alcohol (get a parent to help you with this), shake for a few minutes, then let it sit for 48 hours (or up to 6 weeks-the longer it sits, the stronger the smell). Add 2 tablespoons spring water, stir, then pour through a coffee filter and put it in a bottle.


  2. This past year in chemistry class, the book we used had an activity for making perfume from whole cloves and rubbing alcohol.  It didn't smell too good to me, but maybe others might like it.

    As I recall, you basically put 7-14 cloves in a small jar, add some rubbing alcohol, and keep the jar closed for a week.  Remove the cloves when you're done.  You could try leaving it sit longer with the cloves in, also, before removing them.
