This is not a perfume. It is a highly concentrated fragrance oil meant for use in crafting products such as candles, soaps, perfumes, diffusers bath and body products. Due to the highly concentrated nature of our fragrance oils they cannot be used directly on the skin.

Eau de Cologne – Usage Rate:
Eau de cologne (EDC) has a much lower fragrance concentration (about 2% to 4%) than the EDT with a high alcohol content, and therefore it is the cheapest option. It generally lasts for up to two hours.
Eau de Toilette – Usage Rate:
Eau de toilette (EDT) has a fragrance concentration of between 5% to 15%. It is cheaper than the EDP and is one of the most popular types of fragrance available. It will normally last two to three hours and is a popular choice for affordable body mists and roll-on perfumes.
Eau de Parfum – Usage Rate:
The next highest fragrance concentration would be eau de parfum (EDP) with oil concentration between 15 to 20%. On average, you can get a good four to five hours of your fragrance lasting.
Perfume – Usage Rate:
With more than 20% oil concentration, you are likely to still notice your fragrance working from morning to evening. Perfumes have the highest fragrance concentration and would last the longest among all other types: usually six to eight hours. These are also the most expensive due to the high concentration of fragrance and/or essential oils.
ScentStay (optional):
2%
Perfumers Alcohol (Spray On):
Up to 100%
Mineral Oil (Roll On):
Up to 100%
a) Decide if you want a spray or roll on product, then choose a suitable bottle.
Make a note of the volume capacity of the bottle: Roller bottles are usually 10ml. Spray bottles usually come in 30 – 100ml sizes.
b) Pick how strong a product you want: full strength perfume, or maybe a light body mist? Check the usage rates above and pick a number from the percentage range.
You should now have two numbers written down: bottle volume (BV) and fragrance strength (FS)
Now it’s time for a little maths.
How to calculate the formula:
To convert a percentage to a number, move the decimal place two places over to the left, eg: 30.00% = 0.30 or 9.00% = 0.09 If you get stuck on the conversion, you can use this handy calculator:
Percent to Decimal Calculator
50 x 0.3 = 15 (the amount of fragrance required: BV x FO)
50 x 0.02 = 1 (the amount of ScentStay required: BV x SS)
Total = 16ml
Now for the last piece of math: how much carrier (alcohol or oil) to use. Take the BV (50 in my example) and minus the total of fragrance and ScentStay (16 in my example)
50 – 16 = 34
34ml is the amount of carrier needed to fill my bottle.
Now for the fun part.Â
Using the numbers from Step Two, measure the fragrance oil (FO) and ScentStay (SS) into a small beaker or mixing bowl, and mix well
Measure your carrier of choice into a separate beaker or bowl. Add the FO/SS blend, or just FO if not using ScentStay, to the carrier and mix well.
So for my perfume, these are my final numbers:
15ml Fragrance oil
1ml ScentStay
34ml Perfumers alcohol
Pour into your bottle, cap and you’re done!
