Making Your Own Signature Perfume

There are a lot of perfume manufactures in the world market. This gives customers a variety of choices which really depends on its reaction with the person's body chemistry. Sadly, it is never easy to find the right product so instead of wasting dollars trying out bottle after bottle, maybe it is time to make your own signature perfume.

The conventional way of doing is by buying all the ingredients from the store. These include the essential oils and the equipment to do it. The other way will be to pick some stuff from the garden or the forest and then use the utensils in the kitchen.

A good example of using some home made stuff will be by first buying liquefied cheese from the grocery. It is still hard so this should be placed in a container and left in the sun for about a week.

When the cheese is ready, the person can get some flowers from the garden. Some examples could be apple blossoms, water lilies, orchids and roses. Some pine needles and canola oil will also be needed. The finishing touch of this formula will be a bottle of rubbing alcohol and some distilled water.

The cheese will be in liquid form because of the scorching heat of the sun. The flowers and the pine needles should be minced using a mortar and pestle or by a food processor. Next, the person should mix these two together in a beaker.

While stirring, this is the time that some canola oil is added to the concoction. The person should smell the mixture from time to time and only stop when the right fragrance has been reached.

The last thing to do before storing it for a few days will be adding some alcohol. After two days or longer, this should be drained using a filter and then placed in a bottle making it ready for anyone to use.

Those that are able to come up with a fragrance without the help of a book or other sources of information are either lucky or have the talent in making a signature perfume. This means with the proper materials, the individual can come up with a better fragrance.

People who want to learn more can take up classes and then work on these recipes at home. It is only when the person is comfortable with the different essential oils that it is time to conduct experiments that have not yet been attempted by perfume manufacturers and see where it goes.

It is advisable to write everything down so the individual will remember the exact quantities that were placed into the perfume. This should be kept in a safe place so that no one will be able to copy it making it solely the property of the inventor.

If the inventor does not have that much capital yet, perfumes can be made at home and then sold to various stores. When enough money has been collected, this is the time to rent space in the mall so there won't be a middleman anymore and more profit can be made.

Perfume making is always about trial and error. Since there is no guidebook, making the signature brand will take more effort on the part of the inventor.
