ForHisGlory Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 Was searching the web to get a better foundation and thought I'd post the results. I thought is was very informative and interesting.For those that are more experienced - I hope you can add a few tips! TIA!Top note:Top note oils are the lightest, most stimulating and energizing oils. They have a fresh, immediately apparent quality that is intense, but fleeting, due to their fast evaporation rate. Examples of top note oils are: BasilBergamotEucalyptusLemonLemongrassOrangePeppermintPineMiddle Note:Middle note oils usually form the bulk of fragrance blends. They are strong, lasting and potent - not as bright as the top notes, or solid as the base notes. Their scent emerges shortly after the top note's first impression. Examples of middle note oils are: ChamomileFennelGeraniumJuniperLavenderNutmegRosemaryTea TreeBase Note:Base note oils are the slowest to evaporate. Their rich, heavy scents emerge slowly and linger. They form the base of the fragrance and give it staying power. Examples of base note oils are: CedarwoodCloveJasminePatchouliRoseSandalwoodVetiverMany people start with blending essential oils. They are basic components that can be used to build more complex blends. But you can any combination of essential OR fragrance oils. I recommend choosing components based on having at least one top note, middle note, and base note, or just choose several oils that you think will go well together. This is all about experimentation.Open the oils and the small glass jar. You may be able to get a preview of your scent blend merely by having the three bottles open at the same time.One at a time, dip the tip of a clean cotton swab into the fragrance or essential oil. Squeeze any excess oil from the swab on the lip of the bottle.Place the swab in the glass jar.zSB(3,3)Repeat for each of the scents you want to add to the blend.Make sure to write down each oil you include in the blend.Walk away from the jar and wait a few minutes.Come back to the jar and gently sniff the air above the jar. This will be the scent blend in its early stage of development. Take notes on your thoughts about it. Is one oil overpowering the others? Do two of them seem too similar to tell apart?Put the lid on the jar and leave it in a cool, dark place. After a few hours, open the jar and smell the blend again. The scent should have mixed further and "matured" a bit. Take further notes on your thoughts about the blend.Put the lid back on the jar and leave it again in a cool, dark place. After about 48 hours, open the jar and smell it again. The scent blend should be fully mixed and "matured" by now. Take further notes about the blend.Make corrections to your blend. Perhaps try two parts of oil A and one part of oil B. Or add some oil D to your blend of A, B, and C. Try the blend again until you find the perfect combination.Last, but not least, try the blend in a candle or soap, and take notes on how it works in them.Tips:Try to get equal amounts of fragrance or essential oil on each cotton swab, and make sure your they are completely clean - or else you'll risk contaminating your essential oils.Instead of cotton swabs, you can use an eye dropper or disposable pipette and a paper towel, but you must use a fresh dropper or pipette for each essential oil.Don't stick your nose into the jar to smell the blend. Let the scent rise from out of the jar.Sniffing coffee beans or ground coffee will cleanse your scent receptors. (Yes, just like cleansing your palate.) Sniff some coffee beans in between tests and you'll get a more accurate reading on the scents.Experiment, experiment, experiment! Don't be afraid to try odd combinations, or combinations that don't adhere to the top-middle-base note ideal. Above all, be sure to take good notes!http://candleandsoap.about.com/od/fragrancesandaromatherapy/ht/htcustblend.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh-MYo Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 That's great! Thanks for sharing that. I have been experimenting with my own EO blends for my catalytic lamp. Some end up smelling like floor cleaner or like the gingerbread factory exploded.But this makes a lot more sense. Experimentation is such fun. I will continue now with this information you shared.Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForHisGlory Posted October 28, 2007 Author Share Posted October 28, 2007 You are welcome.

ForHisGlory Posted October 28, 2007 Author Share Posted October 28, 2007 When you think of essential oils being used in perfumery, think of the notes as a musical scale of scents. Each fragrance is either a top, middle, or base note. Once in a while, there will be fragrances that can be classified in more than one note category. This can be expressed as "middle to top" or "base to middle" etc. When you mix your notes, it is common practice to take scents from each note and blend them together. This is definitely not a requirement, but a good starting point for formulations, especially for beginners. It is possible that two base notes will work well together without a top note, or a top note and a base note will work together without a middle note, but common practice is to combine fragrances from each of the three notes together. However, if you feel that you have a good combination without conforming to that practice, by all means keep it! The main idea is to find a pleasant and unique fragrance.This site is putting the tea tree in the top and pine in the middle. That makes things a little more confusing. LOL!Top Note:Tea TreeMiddle Note:PineBase Note:ylang ylangvanillaTop Note Essential Oils Anise (Top to Middle) Basil (Top to Middle) Bergamot (Top to Middle) Cajuput Cinnamon Clary Sage (Top to Middle) Coriander (Top to Middle) Eucalyptus Grapefruit Hyssop (Top to Middle) Lemon Lemongrass (Top to Middle) Lime Mandarin/Tangerine Neroli (Top to Middle) Verbena Niaouli Orange Peppermint Petitgrain Ravensara Sage Spearmint Tagetes Tangerine Tea Tree (Top to Middle) Thyme (Top to Middle) Middle Note Essential Oils Bay Black Pepper Cardamom Chamomile Cypress Fennel (Middle to Top) Geranium Ho Leaf Ho Wood Hyssop (Middle to Top) Juniper Lavender (Middle to Top) Marjoram Melissa (Middle to Top) Myrtle Nutmeg Palma Rosa Pine Rosemary Spikenard Yarrow Base Note Essential Oils Balsam Cassia (Base to Middle) Cedarwood Cinnamon (Base to Middle) Clove Frankincense Ginger (Base to Middle) Jasmine Myrrh Neroli (Base to Middle) Oakmoss Patchouli Rose Rosewood (Base to Middle) Sandalwood Valerian Vanilla Vetiver Ylang Ylang (Base to Middle)http://www.sudsandwicks.com/tutorials/essentialoilblending.shtml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForHisGlory Posted October 29, 2007 Author Share Posted October 29, 2007 Found a list of scents broken into the notes:Top: light and bright fruity or citrusy scents.Middle: florals and spicesBase: musks, woodyhttp://www.escentsational.com/catalog/master_list1.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForHisGlory Posted October 29, 2007 Author Share Posted October 29, 2007 This is an awesome reference!http://home.earthlink.net/~skinesscentuals/EOList.htmlhttp://home.earthlink.net/~skinesscentuals/Form.html I notice that studying perfume, candle fragrance, soap fragrance, etc, the rules for top, middle and base stay the same, as a rule of thumb.

racolvin Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 Good heavens, its all so complicated .... I just take some of one FO and mix it with another till I get what I like Made Cranberry Peppermint the other day, 50/50 of each ... turned out pretty good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavenScentU Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 Good grief....I think I would need a chemist degree to figure that stuff all out. I just throw my not so favorite scents together and create my top selling scents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForHisGlory Posted October 29, 2007 Author Share Posted October 29, 2007 Leave me alone! I like being a freak!!!! I'm going to mix Peppermint/Eucalyptus, Amaretto and Cowboy Blues and see what that gets me.That is a top, middle and base note - scientifically!

Fire and Ice Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 I just experiment by adding together the scents, pouring it into a tart and doing it that way.

That's what I want to do.Peppermint/Eucalyptus, Amaretto and Cowboy Blues - mixed these this morning. The Peppermint and Amaretto are competing - big time. Not a good combination.I also did Citrus Splash, Lavender Vanilla and Balsam - Not too bad. I'd like to get a cleaner Lavender than the one I have.

candlesprite7 Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Thanks for the information!

I thought it was very interesting. I wanted to branch out but I also wanted to know the "method with the madness". Even though we will mix whatever comes to mind, it is still good to have a base to work with. I found that the rule applies for any type of fragrance mix whether you are studying perfume, candles, soap, etc.I just think, for the most part, I won't waste a lot of time by putting the wrong notes together. This does help me. I'm adding to the list as I read from other sites and companies. When they list a fragrance and what note it is, I add that to my list under the correct category. I find that some middle notes can be a top note and vice versa. Some base notes can also be a middle note. It's interesting.I might keep that updated here. :smiley2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have learned so much from the people there, Great information! Thanks, I saw that site. I'll look into that more closely.I am totally addicted. My only problem is my daughter is downsizing my candle area in her store and I think I'm only going to have room for 20 scents. I need to find the best twenty in the different categores: Fruit, floral, food, nature, seasonal.Any suggestions would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobinInOR Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 A good way to start is one drop base, 2 drops mid, 3 drops top. Or you can get quite scientific - I've actually started doing this for my signature scent I'm developing and it's kind of fun.First, mix 2 top notes in 10 different concentrations, by drops:Note A: 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1Note B: 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10So your first sample is 10 drops A, 1 drop B. Your second sample is 9 drops A, 2 drops B..... You've got 10 samples of 11 drops each, with note A the strongest in the first sample, and Note B the strongest in the last sample.Figure out which one you prefer, and make up a mixture using that ratio.Next, using that mixture, add in the mid note.Mixture of A/B: 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1Middle note C: 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10Figure out which one of those 10 variations you like, and make up a mix of A/B/C.Continue on with the base note...Takes a long time to work through though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
