Hi! I have been experimenting over the last few weeks with diffusers. None of them have worked so far 🤣 I tried Auego with FO at 15% and 20% neither were strong. I then read that perfumer's alcohol gives a stronger throw so i tried that, but it has a different weight to most base oils so i worked in grams (as candle shacks recipies suggest). All I could smell was the perfumer's alcohol. I then tried it in mls and it was really strong! But I'm assuming because of the weight that it may not be a safe ratio of fragrance to perfumer's alcohol. I was wondering if you could do another video on diffusers but testing with perfumers alcohol? Or a comparison video using different bases to see what works best for scent throw? It would really help me, I feel so lost with it but you managed to navigate me through my candle journey so I'm hoping you will guide me through this too with your amazing content!! 🥰 I hope you are doing well and I'm looking forward to the next video ❤️

@@JasmineRose.x Hi Jasmine 🤍 I am well thank you lovely , I hope that you are doing well! What an incredible video idea , wow its interesting how strong the alcohol smells ( not a very pleasant one either) , maybe we need to look for perfumers alcohol with a little bit less alcohol in there! What type of reeds do you use? As I prefer rattan reeds over fibre reeds. I notice fibre reeds doesn’t give off a strong throw but rattan is stronger! This is a very good video idea for me , I will start looking into to it, thank you my lovely and we will help each other out with this! 🤍🤍

@mawahebhome aww thank you! I can't wait! I have tried both rattan and fibre. I read that rattan reeds are best for perfumers alcohol. I use the one from candle shack but haven't tried any others! It's all a minefield haha 😂 I will look into if there is any difference in other brands for perfumers alcohol 😊 thank you!! ❤️ xxx

@@JasmineRose.x My pleasure, thank you! Xo Girl , I couldn’t agree more a minefield it is 😂🤍 there are limited options with diffuser bases from suppliers its either a vegan base or alcohol , do you think there is a way of creating our own? I would like to try witch hazel , have you tried that? I bought witch hazel a long time ago from US and mixed with it fragrance, it smelt so well! But I never bought it again because of ridiculous shipping costs 😂

@mawahebhome I haven't looked into that actually! I will read a bit more into other bases! I feel like all the good things are abroad 😂 I really wanted to make candles with coconut and apricot wax (like the one that is raved about from America, I think it's called coco apricot creme) and boy did I test it trying to blend it myself but literally just failed dramatically every time 😂 the shipping costs for the actual wax is outrageous so I gave up haha 🥲 xxx

@@JasmineRose.x honestly, i feel the same way too! I feel like I have to research so much in the UK and its so hard to find something of good quality. Yes yes, I know the wax I actually tried it! That was 4 years ago my very first videos was these waxes from the US and there fragrances are a chefs kiss so delicious ! I paid £200 for shipping including custom fees lol never again xo
