NewOrleansLady Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 Snowdrift has a perfumeer's alcohol. They have awesome tutorials. I make lots of perfume but only for myself and I LOVE this site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scentsme Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 I use the Body Mist base from thecandlesource.com (same as WSP but MUCH cheaper) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrochet Posted August 25, 2009 Author Share Posted August 25, 2009 The one from candle source is that the one you heat? I looked at that the other day but I thought that it would be a hassle to heat every time you make sprays. Do you like this base(I would use it for body spray instead of perfume)? Is it worth the time to heat it up?Thanks to all for your opinion:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennyjo Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 (edited) I use Aroma Haven's Artisan's Perfume Base. It accepts up to 30% FO and smells awesome after 24 hours. I love it. I also use their little misters and they are so cute!Edited to add: Don't heat this base. It's liquid (alcohol) and flammable. I just put FO in with dropper and then add base with dropper and shake. Super easy! Edited August 25, 2009 by jennyjo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheQueen Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 My body sprays are made with cyclomethicone, FCO, and FO and they are wonderful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icecold Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 How much FO do you add to your base from AH/RE for the misters? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icecold Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 How much FO in misters for perfume base from AH/RE? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrochet Posted September 6, 2009 Author Share Posted September 6, 2009 Up to 30% fo to base Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennyjo Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 The misters I buy are 8 ml, so 30% is about 2.4 ml. I use the little pipettes and measure out just slightly below the 2.5 marking. Not super accurate but I have never had a problem. Comes out great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
