Instructions

    • 1

      Create a blend of 3 percent dilution oils in a 2 oz. mixing dish. A total of a half ounce of oil is needed. You can use one type of oil scent, or you can create a blend of as many as you want. Use disposable plastic pipettes for each new scent you use.

      For example 1/4 oz each of rose and carnation, creates a flirty and feminine fragrance.

      Add the rubbing alcohol to the mixing dish of blended oil. Stir the solution with a pipette. The alcohol thins out the oil base of the fragrance, and suspends the scent in it. Most commercial perfumes contain alcohol.
