Perfume-Making Tips : How to Make a Perfume From a Flower

[@saranghills]

My daughter has been trying to make perfume by keeping flowers in water since she was 4. 😂 Finally, she made her first tincture, thanks to you! ❤

[@LucyMorningstar999]

Thank you for this video, it's straight to the point and very helpful. My 9 year old daughter wants to make a perfume from some of my roses in my garden, so off I go...lol.

[@JuneBug_87]

❤🌹

[@abdoumahrez1060]

may i ask if the process worked ?

[@duaaahmedgad]

Could i ask if you tried it and did it work?

[@tiny-tot]

i just tried this with a bunch of flowers/herbs from my backyard and made the most delicious smelling perfume!! thank you for the tutorial! the everclear was hard to find but it’s worth it. i left it sit for ~29 hours and the alcohol aroma is completely replaced by a light floral aroma! for anyone curious i used 75% gardenia flowers, a basil flower, a few pieces of rosemary and sage, petunias, and stuffed the rest of the jar with dried lavender :) it smells musky and fruity and just what i was looking for

[@janylove7432]

Where did you purchase the everclear?

[@pixieart8071]

This is the best video of making purfume I was searching all over and end up seeing this video, thankyou

[@benthemusicalchemist]

Yes. you can. You can use 90% rubbing alcohol, too. -Chemistry major

[@CharlieThePython]

I have 99% do you think that will work?

[@mandeepaksngh]

Thank you.🌛

[@benthemusicalchemist]

@@CharlieThePython For what it's worth, yes. It would probably work better than 90%!

[@avavania5274]

I tried it this way and the alcohol was too strong to even smell any hint of the flowers…

[@Classyk99]

That is really cool , you really know your stuff. What a wonderful way to preserve also memories of of special occasions where flowers are given.

[@simpdiy]

Extremely succinct and helpful, thank you!

[@WaqarQamri]

Thank you so much. Such a sweet presence.

[@zmarssojourner7435]

Can I put flowers with fruits and pieces of cedar wood in the bottle? I would like to have a flowery/ fruity/ woody perfume. Will it work? Thanks.

[@skittlesluver26]

[@ichigatsujohn]

This and all your videos are extremely helpful, thank you for uploading this.

[@MontyMole92]

@Tasha4646 u can, the smell wont be as strong... i did it, just add more flowers then usual and keep it in longer

[@DillionDillionDillionDillion]

Straight to the point and simple to do myself. Great video and method

[@JaveXtian]

i used rubbing alcohol.. nice it works... try it! any alcohol is possible bcoz they are made up of acid that can extract scent from petals

[@Pavi-nw2kh]

Hi jave can you pls some idea to give about perfume making

[@Thelonelyscavenger]

You had me at Everclear!

[@Computertechlighthouse]

Great Tutorial. May God Bless you. Thank you

[@aniou8126]

Are you supposed to use just the petals or can you use the pollen, stamen, etc?

[@aditi1998]

@Tasha4646 Water is not something that can extract the scent from another subsctance, in this case flower petals. Also, water will actually spoil the flower petals (rotting)

[@eja1022]

I was wondering if gardenia flowers would work?? My mother has a gardenia plant that is full of very fragrant flowers.

[@lloydpopp13]

Very inspiring!!! I live in Indonesia do u know if there's any alternative for that alcohol brand?? Coz I don't think it's exist here

[@章蟑螂]

Surgurical spirit or liquid hand sanitizer. Cause hand sanitizer made of alcohol

[@kenshinbattousai374]

Can you use denatured alcohol? That's what they put in all commercial perfume.

[@dixanella]

Does it smell nice? Is it a strong rose smell?

[@SylvusPresley]

What if I cannot get Everclear in my state?? Would I be able to use rubbing alcohol?…👀👀Or vodka???

[@khanalishbah]

hi so this way way can we o wid any flower and is dis an essential oil at d end ?

[@ayaaya24100]

Can this work without any alcohol??

[@hyperionsrevenge]

@6ajrocks everclear is dirt cheap. but it may be illegal in your home state. There's still places that sell it though. Like Mom & Pop liquor stores rather than from the supermarket.

[@ilydowa]

how do you do fruit parfumes like peach or pineapple or cherry, the same way you do with flowers?

[@cosmic_lively]

Can I do this with hyacinth petals?

[@brittanyhill9106]

Any fragrant flower I’d suppose 😊

[@migglep]

does anyone know if you can use vodka???

[@praveenmaryfamila366]

Can we use any alcohol of availability

[@Janette0220]

i am kinda sensitive to alchoho are there any other substitute can be used??

[@lucaspedromagnosantos3597]

A carrier Oil like Jojoba or Almond oil with a neutral smell it will be used as a rub in or cream though or you can do a cream with the ancient method of enfleurage good luck❤❤

[@xPhantomsx]

Thanks for the video I'm definitely going to try this out.

[@Xxvemoxx]

Can you use rubbing alcohol instead??? (im just 13 -.-)

[@Brittaniramblings]

THAT IS FREAKIN AMAZING!

[@quanchualuumanh]

okay there 2 kinds of everclear the 190 proof and 151 proof which one we suppose to use? how long after production date does the perfume expir? and if we use it alone as a perfume will it stick on the skin for long or will it be like one of those body spray that will smell good for only a few minutes?

[@TomboyCactus101]

@mortalkomyahoo Straining the flowers,, does it get rid of the little flower debris, leaves etc? Do you strain the flowers first then put in everclear?

[@itsdaj]

Does the tincture contain any alcohol smell or potency?

[@Siberaborn]

New subscriber love you're channel luv ❤

[@tricialarsen9593]

Awesome! Thanks for your instruction video - I'm going to try this.

[@jsparkleprincess]

PLEASE REPLY can i use any alcohol..or just everclear alcohol..cuz i can't find any everclear alcohol here in the philipines

[@awakenu1]

AWESOME! I HAVE TWO VERY UNIQUE ROSES, ONE IS FROM THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC CALLED BLACK PRINCE, AND THE OTHER IS A PALE LAVENDER ROSE CALLED STERLING SILVER! BOTH ARE UNEQUALED IN FRAGRANCE! WHERE CAN I BUY THE GRAIN ETOH?

[@RhiFoxx]

Okay, so you don't want to smoosh the petals into it? And, do you grow all of your own flowers, or do you buy them?

[@jojoeltabey]

Thank you very useful video

[@olgala1964]

can this be done with lime peels? thanks, love your videos.

[@TonyandDylan]

[@skadeet2221]

i cant wait to make some wisteria purfume out of it! 💐💐 I could only find a few and they were either mixed with onither scent or $80+ usd 💀

[@Salad_Bowl_102]

Loved this! thanks so much

[@avallonmist]

kurogane10 said it all. WOW, that is incredible. You made a really good video too. I love perfume and aroma therapy; and, this looks so enjoyable.

[@matty3430]

can you use water

[@TonyandDylan]

I've heard of using water and leaving it in the sun for a long time or pour boiling water over the flowers. The best option would be to use alcohol and if it smells like alcohol when your done then add water to dilute it.

[@leetomlee7265]

Thanks for sharing. What happens if i soak over 48 hours? Is any particular brand of EverClear better?

[@camesjory]

Everclear is actually the brand :)

[@annabanana3104]

Amazing!🩷💐

[@christinebeckman8395]

I really enjoyed learning from your video - Thank you : )

[@noblemanization]

is it ok if i use genebra?

[@niveasartshop]

I don't want to use alcohol so what should I do? Can i use water or olive oil?

[@LhawangPoSherpa]

Idk about oil but water will spoil the petals

[@Littlefrogintheocean]

how long perfume stay on skin?

[@REPLICNTX]

Afterwards how do you store it? How long does it last?

[@b3autifullife]

A tincture will last for many many years if stored in a dark coloured bottle and in a cool dark cupboard away from direct light. Whether the aroma will last that long, I don't know.

[@jedjunjunjed9048]

what flowers can i use to make perfume ?

[@jonasuwaleke-sj6nv]

Thank you so much

[@stlwrk932]

What brand of alcohol is good for making perfume and where can I find it

[@maggiemombourquette6881]

Thank you this is very helpful

[@digitalheena]

What can we use instead of alcohol. I dont hv alcohol

[@brittanyhill9106]

You can use rubbing alcohol. It comes in diff strengths

[@browngut65]

Thank You verY much... it heLps in My investigatory project..!

[@rameshsastry6779]

THANK YOU SO MUCH ITSVERY GOOD AND INFORMATIVE secret THANKS.

[@khanalishbah]

can we do des with fruits like oranges n strawberries or vanilla sticks ?

[@TonyandDylan]

Fruits have alot of water inside of them so it would slow the process if you did oranges I would probably use the peels if you did want to do a strawberry you might want to crush it and squeeze the liquid out then throw it in the highest percentage alcohol you can find then wait longer than 3 days because the fruits will still have more liquid than typical flowers.

[@ManjeetKaur-pk9of]

Can I take baby oil

[@adakass3108]

can i use anny alcohol?

[@TonyandDylan]

Sure as long as it has a high percentage of alcohol. Like 90 or above

[@SridharKondaUK]

Greatest video, thank uuuuuuuuuuuuu.... So much

[@niamh2739]

great video

[@No0onaELF]

How many flowers can make 1000 ml tencher?

[@albertirigoyen6731]

Can i use 80 proof skyy vodka?

[@TongTong-e6t]

One problem is there no perfume not using essential oil

[@kri733]

Thankyou

[@orn31la]

can u use any alcohol

[@TonyandDylan]

Sure you can just send it. Just make sure its above 90% alcohol

[@VicDior88]

So cool

[@2XxeveryxX6]

i did this but with rubbing alcohol but it was 50% and with red roses and to be honest its been there for about 17 hours and it smells just like turpentine hahaha idk what this is now ima let it stay longer and see what happens

[@reidb18]

that everclear stuff is far too expensive plus you'll be tempted to drink it. I'd recommend a cheaper substitute

[@janegriffo1]

Thank you for sharing Stephanie.

[@TheShift_OfEnergy]

ure beautiful, flower girl, all ppl that adore nature, are beautiful,

[@Nonapepsi1993]

Thanks sweetie btw does anyone can name me best flowers smell anything but roses that have a very good and sweet smell 😻💞

[@Nonapepsi1993]

gardenia are my favorite and the rest too thanks

[@chrisss3233]

I know this is six years ago 😅But to me the best flower scent ever is jasmine. There is a jasmine plant in my garden and i love it so much but I’m not sure which variant it is.

[@brittanyhill9106]

I have a pink jasmine in my garden that smells heavenly! Also a gardenia also! Several roses. And they do smell different not all roses smell the same! So…I actually don’t have any red roses 🫣 lol Because of that generic smell to me you know? I love a more citrus scent. Uhh oh! There are orchids that have scent also. Lilac! Lavender. Peony is a favorite. White oleander (smell like vanilla at night. They’re poisonous though so be careful handling them) and of course also honeysuckle! A favorite as a kid. I hope that helps 😊

[@brittanyhill9106]

@@chrisss3233I love jasmine too! Haha apparently we’re all still making fragrances years later! How did yours turn out? I’m going to try with some mixtures of my blooms this late spring

[@chrisss3233]

@@brittanyhill9106 it did so well! And it's amazingly preserved! I still have a bottle of it on a shelf with other flowers I tried and it's still got that same scent that instantly sends me down memory lane the way only a scent can.

[@bluetigressemoon]

@shamsasukarin : I was wondering the same thing..I was thinking about making some homemade perfume....so hopefully this quetion gets answered!

[@shahidafridi9460]

Hi very good video I like u

[@harshshah3084]

Video uploaded 15 years ago!!! Damn!!!

[@katreennicole2706]

CAN I USE OTHER ALCOHOL PLEASE REPLY

[@TonyandDylan]

Yes rubbing alcohol but it is usually only up to 92 percent, everclear is 95 percent so it's just a little stronger. To be honest I dont think It would matter either way but i would let it soak for maybe 3 days if its rubbing alcohol

[@jennelynloquias77]

The red rose is fading to a cloth....how to make that can't fade to the clothes? I need your reply for the investigatory project for my son

[@simplegrl]

but wont it smell to much like alcohol :/

[@Dorlinedainwen]

Most perfumes have alcohol in them, that is why it dries so quickly when you spray it on. It evaporates leaving the oils behind (where the scent comes from)

[@naturesuphoria]

Wanted to say hello! Anyone that loves hair like me needs to stick together!

[@XClACIX]

❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@mrLangeloNguyen]

you can use some kind of Vodka if you like

[@TonyandDylan]

If the percentage is above 90

[@Dontbullyme-]

This alcohol is illegal in California 😭😭
