Aromatherapy: perfumes

 FLOWER POWER COLOGNE
This is a light, fresh toilet water that combines two favorite garden scents – rose and lavender
with fresh herbs and citrus peel for an irresistible scent, perfect for splashing on throughout the day.
2 tablespoons fresh rose petals
2 tablespoons fresh lavender flowers
Peel of 1 lemon (zest only)
1 tablespoon fresh Rosemary
1 tablespoon fresh Peppermint
2 Cups water 1 ¼ cups vodka
Place the flowers, peel, and herbs in a small saucepan and cover with the water.
Simmer on low heat for 5 minutes but do not boil. Cool completely and add the vodka.
Pour the mixture into a clean container with a tight-fitting lid and place in a cool, dry location
for 2 weeks. Strain off all solids and bottle your cologne in a pretty bottle. Yield: 16 ounces.

**

  SOLID LAVENDER PERFUME
4 ounces beeswax
½ cup sweet almond oil
1 tablespoon Lavender essential oil
Melt beeswax into the oil using a double boiler.
Remove from heat. Stir in essential oils and keep stirring
for about a minute. Pour into containers and let cool
completely until solid.

**

 MOON PRIESTESS PERFUME
1 Drop Queen of the Night Oil 3 drops rose oil
1 drop lemon verbana oil 4 fl. oz white spirit
Blend the three oils in a bottle. Add the white spirit, and shake all
vigorously. A cologne can be made by adding another 1 FL. oz of white
spirit and 3 fl. oz of distilled water.

**

 ART OF PERFUMERY
¼ oz. oil of lavender
60 drops essence of musk
30 drops essence of ambergris
30 drops oil of bergamot
8 oz. spirit
Mix by agitation. Then add:
22 drops oil of cloves
8 drops oil of cinnamon
8 drops essence of ambergris

MOON PRIEST COLOGNE
1 fl.oz lemon verbena or Lime oil 2 fl.oz coriander oil
1/2 fl.oz. camphor or myrrh oil 1/4 fl.oz. white spirit 3 3/4 fl.oz. distilled water
Blend the oils in a bottle, add the spirit and water and shake all
vigorously. Increasing the myrrh oils gives a darker perfume;
increasing the camphor, a lighter and more spicy one. All perfumes ‘behave’
differently on different skins, so it is worth experimenting to find your own balance.

**

 LUST POTION
6 drops of Patchouli oil 6 drops of Sandalwood oil 6 drops of Rose oil
6 drops of Clove oil 6 drops of Nutmeg oil 6 drops of Olive oil
Wear as a perfume whenever you’ll be in the presence of the person you’re trying to attract.
Be careful, this stuff is really potent. And don’t be surprised if you find others eyeing you as well.
I find it’s pretty effective for getting a man’s attention. I would probably suggest substituting amber
oil for the rose oil in order to attract a woman.
