Making Perfume & Cologne
Eau de Cologne – Usage Rate:
2 – 4%
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:
5 – 15%
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:
15 – 20%
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:
20 – 40%
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%
How to guide:
Step One - The Decision
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)
Step Two - The Formula
Now it’s time for a little maths.
How to calculate the formula:
- Take the volume of the bottle (BV) from Step One. In my example I’m using a 50ml spray bottle. So my first number in the formula is 50.
- Take the percentage of strength (FS) for the type of product you’re making. In my example I’ve decided to make a Perfume, and I’ve picked a strength of 30% (middle of the range). So my second number in the formula is 0.3
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 - I’ve also decided to use ScentStay to help my perfume last a little longer. The usage rate for this is 2%, so my third number is 0.02
The Formula
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.
Step Three - Putting It Together
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!
