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 – 10%

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:

Not suitable

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:

Not suitable

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:

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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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

  3. 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.

Now for the fun part. 

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!

    Love this floral rose scent, behaved well in both hot and cold processed soap. Is stronger in the hot processed one but lovely. Rustic white is hot, pink is cold processed.

    It’s the first time I’ve used this fragrance oil and I will definitely be adding it to my permanent list of fragrances, it reminds me of an old fashioned carnation talcum powder that my grandmother use to use , love it for my candles and melts

    This is a firm favourite for me of all the rose scents but it’s polarising for customers, I think for some people it is too old fashioned but that’t why I love it. It does accelerate moderately, but has good scent retention.

    Best rose scent I’ve found – classy and not a hint of “old lady”. Behaved very well in CP soap, lotions and candles for me so far and very popular with customers.

    No discolouration, strong & true rose scent. I adore this scent, smells like a stronger smelling rose without smelling like an old lady. I like to mix it with a bit of sandalwood fragrance oil to give it a little kick. Great stuff!

    This is possibly the best true “rose” fragrance. It is not synthetic smelling at all and it is a very natural smelling rose. It smells like a fresh cut rose with morning dew still on its’ petals. It is a bit one-dimensional but this makes it perfect if you want a single-note rose or if you plan on blending it.

    A soap makers “dream” fragrance. I too adore the scent, with this being one of my biggest sellers. It’s one you never tire of. Behaves very well in batter that is high in hard oils, but kept at low temperatures.
