Making My Own Perfumes (From Whiskey Bottles)

[@elmocuppicake]

I love the new content you’re releasing, I think it’s refreshing and interesting, and I’m very happy that you’re creating videos you like and that you’d use. Thanks Klaire!

[@Q_LeLeqteur]

Is there anything you can't do? Haha This is lovely! Where can you get Perfume Alcohol?

[@KlairedeLysOfficial]

I've linked it on the blog post :)

@@KlairedeLysOfficial oh I'm sorry I'm a dummy, hehe. Thank you!

[@MuhanRouge]

I’ve been so inspired by your videos - I loved DIY and fixing things myself AND using up things I already had, and lately I’ve rly maximized that to fix up so many of my clothes, storage, etc. It’s rly helped me with being in a transitional phase of my life where I don’t have a permanent home and therefore fewer things but also a feeling of being untethered. Taking care of my things and my living environment is really comforting, and makes me feel like I’m rly taking charge of cultivating my own home. 🧡

you have such an ASMR voice🤩

[@Target_Rose]

Interesting. I am taking art of scent next semester I am so excited to mix my own scents.

[@pixiefairy123456]

This is so interesting! I never thought that you could make your own perfume! I was wondering, how do you apply the perfume? Do you simply drop a few drops on your wrists? And would these recipes work for a spray bottle? Great video!

[@KlairedeLysOfficial]

I tap a drop onto my finger tips (like they used to do with the old 1920 dropper bottles) and apply it that way.

[@44DHernandez]

I've used 190 proof vodka, aka everclear, and it works well. The oils don't separate out.

[@xxKEVZxx]

Been following you since your make up days! So glad that you’re back! With different types of content and they are so lovely ☺️ congratulations on your book! And the baby! ❤️

[@Sheldoninmanyfandoms]

I adore this so much! I love the idea of making your own perfume. I had a scent I completely loved but could never find again because it was discontinued. I've been trying to find dupes for years, but I never thought to just...make it myself lol Thank you so much for the inspiration!

[@lilyk5431]

I love the oils laying ontop lol idk why

[@KlairedeLysOfficial]

It is quite pretty to look at.

[@Valkyriee686]

I actually have wanted to get a new perfume for ages, but I hate everything I smell!!! Thank you, I'm looking forward to finally smelling how I want to!!!

[@LovelyLivingDead]

I love these quick household tips

[@MildExplosion]

Was the second perfume lemon, frankincense and geranium? It's pretty hard to read the bottles on mobile

[@KlairedeLysOfficial]

Yes, it was. :)

[@MildExplosion]

@@KlairedeLysOfficial sounds like a dreamy combination, I have to try it!

[@serenas8919]

You are so inspiring, thank you. I will definitely try to make these in the future! I think they would be lovely gifts.

[@autumnbranscome1741]

Seriously is there nothing you can not make? You are amazing!

[@yaboiaugust8766]

This is amazing! I have fibromylgia and it's given me terrible allergies to fragrant stuff, so I might try this out!

[@ryggorilla]

Soothing voice as always...💕💕

[@horseriderxox]

Might give this a go someday, thanks for the new video ☺️✨ Really cute idea using the whiskey bottles

[@EvieMasterton]

This is an awesome vid I feel inspired to DIY!

[@TolstojsNiece]

Makes me want to make my own RIGHT NOW! 😁

[@femaleskater1185]

Does this recipe still work if you aren’t using essential oils but rather fragrance/perfume oils?

[@Squiddlezz]

Does anyone know if EverClear of moonshine would do better with perfume making than vodka? I know they have a higher alcohol content so would that make them a better substitute or would it all basically be a wash?

[@rea6268]

Everclear will work great!

[@TF-ui9fz]

How do you measure this without percents though??

[@KlairedeLysOfficial]

Honestly, half the time I wing it.

[@ManaDax]

Hi Klaire, I have an honest question and I really do not want to upset you, but I am just extremely curious. You seem to be living in a natural and more organic and healthier way, which is very great and some parts of your life style are definitely things I want to adapt in my own life style. I suppose your child is also being raised in this manner, but will he be ( you have a son, right?) able to build resistance against the components in every day products ( for example the soap for washing clothes , conservatives in foodetc)? I mean, will he not be too sensitive for the products ‘normal’ people use? I truely hope I did not offend you, I just wanted to know your opinion on this matter :). I am also very sorry if my english is sort of incomprehensible, it is not my mother tongue.

[@ManaDax]

@yulyu Thank you for your explanation! I want to make some changes to my life style as well, but don't want it to be negative for my future children in the long run, so I have been thinking and thinking... Your answer seem very logical! I will definitely keep it in mind.

[@geenoodle4757]

ManaDax I’m not being rude to the nice person that answered your question , but I would advise doing (lots of ) your own research about whether a sheltered and completely organic lifestyle is safe for a child if you plan on raising your future children this way. It is absolutely vital that you know all the pros and cons before making up your mind :)

[@TheAppleSmasha]

Would rubbing alcohol or IPA work?

[@BB.halo_heir]

Simply Fabulous ♡

[@OurGreat8]

I love your voice!

[@idklexy3538]

She went from a art and makeup channel to a diy channel I appreciate her ascetic tho

[@misashitao3595]

Sad that you cant use your perfumes anymore,i know your a big perfume fan.

[@SaucerJess]

💚💚💚

[@Kasspyr]

I don't want to be mean, because I do really love your videos, but.... Simplynailogical ... Simply Claire....

[@crystalramirez5604]

Kalie Verchatelli many people have simply at the beginning of their names, simplynailogical did not invent simply

[@Kasspyr]

@@crystalramirez5604 yeahhh... But simplynailogical is the best.

[@KlairedeLysOfficial]

I chose the word simply because that's the lifestyle I want. Simple living. I tried picking the name Klaire, or Klaire de Lys, but it was already taken.

[@nnnnhhhh88]

I do not want to sound mean, but in the past 1 year , the quality of your videos had dropped tremendously. These 1-2 minute videos can be barely called videos, more like tiny infomercials so you get the money from your patreons... Like scrubbing a sticker with oil, for a video, really? :S

[@KlairedeLysOfficial]

Really? Personally, I thought they'd massively improved, especially filming wise. Yes, last weeks video was incredibly short and simple, but it didn't need to be any longer than it was. It was a tip I'd personally found incredibly useful, so I wanted to share it. Some of the videos like that one will be super simple, but I'm trying to balance them out between videos like this and my beeswax wrap video which were a lot more involved. I still need to find the right balance, but I'll get there :)

[@Chellax]

I disagree, I really love these simple straight to the point videos! They're informative, interesting, and unlike any other videos i've seen that are ten minutes long for the same result. They are a great way to sumarise the blog posts in my opinion. Plus, despite being short, they are really well filmed and edited, which makes them delightful to watch. But then again, this is just my opinion!

[@nnnnhhhh88]

@@KlairedeLysOfficial Yeah, i didn't mean it filming wise, that's nice for sure. More like length and topic wise. But do whatever you like, obviously :) Have a nice weekend.

[@KlairedeLysOfficial]

@@nnnnhhhh88 Out of interest, what kind of videos would you prefer to see? These are the ones I'm currently working on: - Making Custom Drawer Organiser (for under £10) - Cloth Nappies - My Experience So Far -Making Gluten Free Coconut Fried Chicken -Making A Rustic Woodland Bedroom Lampshade -Studio Tour -Making Apple Cider Vinegar (From Scratch) -How To Make and Preserve Nettle Tea -Making Gluten Free Bananna Cake -Making a LARGE Garden Seating Area and Fire Pit for under £40 -Making Gluten Free Pancake -My Essential Oils Collection I also have a few new skincare videos planned, but I'm waiting till we have a working bathroom again before I film that.

[@axgelbxnny]

Yeah no I enjoy these short and quick videos; it gets straight to the point and I adore that
