How to make your own DIY perfume at home
Perfume with essential oils
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons carrier oil (of your preference)
- 6 tablespoons of vodka
- 2.5 tablespoons bottled water
- 30 drops of essential oil
- A small funnel
- Coffee filter
- 2 clean dark glass bottles with airtight lids
Instructions to follow:
- Pour your favourite carrier oil into one of the glass bottles
- Add the alcohol
- Close the cover and relax for a good 48 hours with your fragrance.
- While making perfume with essential oils, the longer you let it sit, the stronger the scent, so you can leave it for as many days you wish to.
- Later add the water and shake the bottle vigorously for 1 minute.
- To transfer the scent to the other bottle, use your filter and funnel.
Perfume with flowers
Ingredients
- 1/2 cups chopped flowers
- Medium-sized bowl with lid
- 2 cups distilled water
- Cheesecloth
- A small saucepan
- Washed and sterilized, small glass bottle with an airtight stopper

- In a cheesecloth-lined bowl, soak the flowers overnight, and cover with a lid.
- Squeeze the flowers pouch over a casserole, extract the flower-scented water and cook over low heat until you are left with about one teaspoon of the liquid.
- In this liquid, add cold water and bottle it.
- Set it up overnight!
