This is great!! I used to sell oils and mix some. I created some great scents, but now....I don't have the recipes. I will start making my own fragrances again because you have inspired me!! THANK YOU! THE LORD BLESS YOU!!

[@pepperplums]

I really liked this tutorial. I feel more courageous to try my own purfumes now. Thank you

[@eva-janemiddleton434]

I followed another video and thought I was doomed to make a batch of perfume with separation difficulties. Thank you so much for your professionalism, no corner cutting information and I must ask. What do you use on your face. You just glow with health.

[@bramble-berry]

You're welcome, glad the recipe turned out well for you! This may not surprise you, but I love to use handmade soap and lotion on my face! It keeps it feeling fresh and moisturized. I'll include some of my favorite recipes below. =) Sea Clay Avocado Facial Bar: www.soapqueen.com/bath-and-body-tutorials/cold-process-soap/sea-clay-avocado-facial-bar/ Fresh Face Skincare Recipes: www.soapqueen.com/bath-and-body-tutorials/chamomile-calendula-infused-toner/

[@eva-janemiddleton434]

wow. Thank you so much. You are a walking advert for your products. I will be aiming to make items for myself as well as test batches on friends. I just made a rose water body lotion. I wanted a lychee scent. Low and behold. Rosewater mixed with certain oils gave me the exact smell. Hope the smell doesn't evaporate. Ive made up 4 litres and put them in 100g bottles that are clear to see how they fare over time. I'd hate to gift something that loses it's scent. It's white and ive tested it on my excema and so far it's ok 3 days in. I wish brambleberry were closer as we pay customs fees from the states. I am watching your videos over and over . I am unable to work short term so I would be climbing the trees without something to do. Again thank you for the links. I wish I had half your energy for life. Best wishes from eva x

[@belovedby5759]

Hi. I substitute the rubbing alcohol for the grain alcohol but perfume had same millky color, then I add more polysorbate and it's clear now!!! Thank you very much Soapqueen and be blessed.

[@lindabakker3743]

I find that tucking a cotton swab test patch in your bra for a few hours is a good way to test the fragrance! Not just how it smells but how it makes you feel.

[@amandaestinson]

I am glad you showed the spray one, because a lot of videos on KZbin show the recipe with vodka. I was uncomfortable with doing that and was looking for an alternative. Thanks!

[@bramble-berry]

Hi Amanda! You're welcome! =)

[@Tymartha]

Excellent video - informative, straightforward and great delivery! Just what I was looking for.

[@pamelaorock3444]

Thank u so much Ann Marie. U are such a blessing to this generation. This is what God meant in His word when He gave these scriptures in Exodus 31:1-5; Exodus 35:30-35 talking abt filling Bazalel with His Spirit to forge Jewelry, design, embroider n weave stuff. Please also read Mark 4:20 abt the good soil n Matthew 8:15. God is talking abt people like u on this planet earth. God bless u woman of god. Ure soap episodes are un-palatable-- more than educating n inspiring. God bless u the anointed one.

[@Rosecitycrafterdarylhallfan]

Maybe for 2014,i will try making my own perfumes.very good info.

[@stancexpunks]

Just made this with the rose quartz fragrance! Thanks Anne Marie!

[@bramble-berry]

Hi Sylvia Moeckel! You can use sweet almond oil if you like! It is lightweight and moisturizing like avocado oil, and feels great on your skin. =) Sweet almond oil: www.brambleberry.com/Sweet-Almond-Oil-P3205.aspx

[@rivergal47]

Thank you, always so professional. I'm one of your customers who is always happy with any box from you and your's in WA Jamie in southeastern (rock climbing) KY.

[@airamsasuet]

Thank you Anne, I ok I will buy the optiphen and the rest of the products, thanks again! blessing with your baby

[@aliceaandrea]

You must be super squeaky clean with all the soaps and bath things you make! Extremely interested in this BrambleBerry.com!

[@GoodGolly.MissLolly]

Wow - didn't realise it was so simple!

[@MegaFairandsquare]

Greetings Ann, I always enjoy your tutorial. Always clear and detailed. I have a special request though: I am a big fan of floriental fragrances. Are you considering doing a tutorial on that in the future? Also, I was wondering what the proportion of this blend would be if I wanted to make a 4oz bottle body spray. Thank you and keep up the good work.

[@bramble-berry]

Hi there! It's definitely something we could look into =) I would recommend simply using the same ratio for the fragrance and other ingredients, and increasing them all accordingly.

[@MegaFairandsquare]

Yayyyy ! I will definitely do so. Thanks a million!

[@belovedby5759]

Hi. Thank you very much for respond to my message. I was using euphoria type fragrance oil and everclear grain alcohol. Thank you again.

[@MegaFairandsquare]

Greetings Anne-Marie! I have all my ingredients (through brambleberry) and cannot wait to start blending my white ginger tea body spray/perfume. This recipe seems so simple but I was wondering of making a body spray with it. If so, what would be the amount of perfumer's alcohol, water and polysorbate would I need. Thank you

[@toosweet241]

That was a wonderful video, ur a natural teacher thank you

[@Bonstergirl]

Good to see you again. I always enjoy your videos.

[@z2010able]

Whenever you get around to seeing this... Back in the day, I loved Paco Rabanne's Calandre. I've been trying to find out the florals in this perfume. It may have been discontinued; in any event, I can't afford to buy it any more. Thanks.

[@sallybaldwin2065]

hi anne-marie. I have just returned from holiday in miami. and I have made some toiletries. which I used organic ingredients. sea water from the beach. hibiscus flowers and the cats whiskers from the garden centre.

[@bramble-berry]

That sounds awesome!

[@chelseet11]

Wonderful video! Very informative. Id love to try this sometime!

[@Nahla_OJ]

Hi, its very nice recipe thanks for sharing. I need to know how to make natural body mist

[@passion0914]

i've been watching your videos and i'am really excited about learning as much as i can from you and eventually opening up my own business. what do you recommend for a begginer as far as learning material?

[@sallybaldwin2065]

hi Ann marie I have made the the perfect mothers day perfume called flower garden .

[@bramble-berry]

That sounds awesome!

[@ILuvbebo001]

I bet it smells good!

[@MyLily54]

Thanks for sharing yr video n recipe of How to Make Solid & Spray Perfume. Have a great day!

[@X9x6XArmageddonX9x6X]

Could you please tell how should I create the base in which I will add the essential oils? I've been trying for months to create a proper base but I've failed. I used jojoba oil and vodka as alcohol, kept the mixture for about 6 weeks and in the end there was a blurry, whitish liquid because the alcohol and the oil couldn't have mixed together. Is there any successful alternative for perfumes alcohol? Any advice would be very helpful. Thank you in advance.

[@stancexpunks]

Just use the recipe she used in this video...

[@skatardrummer1]

Would you consider a video on scent typing popular scents to make your own?

[@elaineb2733]

Thank you so much for this. Wonderful information 💞

[@hassenaahcandleco.6503]

Hi Can you use a natural cane alcohol, fractionated coconut oil, and fragrance? To make a perfume?

[@ElaineLombardo]

OMG Definitely!! Thank you so much for the reply. The only change I am making is switching the alcohol for witch hazel, other than that this recipe is perfect! Thank you! On an off-note, how does someone submit their photos in the "facebook photo of the week" contest?

[@juicylolipop93]

Can the fragrance oils (from the website) be used for perfume, or are they too concentrated for skin? Say, for instance, " Shave and a Haircut "? I'd think they are, since they're used for soap.

[@bramble-berry]

Hi Jamila! You can definitely use our fragrance oils in your perfume! They would smell great. Just make sure to use the fragrance oils at the same amount as the recipes in the video. If used in the correct amounts, our fragrances are 100% skin safe. =) Fragrance oils: www.brambleberry.com/Alphabetical-C162.aspx

[@utube2825]

Soap Queen TV but you said, in an above post, that you can add more FO to make a stronger smelling/longer lasting spray perfume. At what point would adding extra FO compromise skin safety? sorry, im not trying to be rude, i love your videos and want to make this recipe ☺

[@TomboyCactus101]

I've noooo idea where to get the ingredients in my country. Sad, cause this looks like the best and least complicated out of all the perfume-making videos

[@parfumstation924]

Jus lov ur presentation n ur method of sharing knowledge. 👍 👌 👍

[@MothFaeryDreads]

This is a very informative video! I've tried other methods of perfume making, but they didn't work so well. Would it be possible for you to make a video of perfume oils? Like the roll on kind in the drams? They're the only kind of perfume that I really like to use, as they seem to last for over 10 hours, and they're fairly cheap to buy from sellers on artfire and etsy so I'd imagine the materials can't cost much which is nice for people like me who are on a budget. Thanks for all your helpful videos!

[@bramble-berry]

Hi Ashley! Thanks for the suggestion, I will take it into consideration! =) You can actually use essential oils or fragrance oils and simply put them in a glass, roll-on container to make a perfume =)

[@zainpiper6407]

Wonderful video. Quick question, what kind of oil should we use to make spray perfume (Essential or Fragrance). Appreciate if you can help with this question...

[@firdauswangu716]

Thanks alot dear

[@kathryncastanares525]

on so i think i may know what i did wrong, but i wanted to ask an expert that i trust to give me the correct answers. anyway, i made my first perfume with all the ingredients you used but with different sent. but the cloudiness never went away. i followed the measurements exactly but i added the polysorvate last. could that be why? its not separating or anything and smells great. its just still that milky color. it looked as though it WAS turning clear as i was first mixing, but it clouded right back up. i mixed forever thinking that may be the issue but it did not help:( i was also wondering if i could use soap dye to give some color and maybe try to hide the milky look.?lol thank you so much! you and Bramble berry have helped me so much and provided me countless hours of enjoyment creating my own cosmetics and many other things. thank you so so much!! forever a huge fan!!! and forever a loyal customer of BB!!!

[@bramble-berry]

I think you may need a bit more Polysorbate! That cloudiness usually means the recipe isn't fully emulsified. I would recommend adding another mL and mixing again. You can do that until the mixture goes clear. =) Polysorbate 80: www.brambleberry.com/Polysorbate-80-P4438.aspx

[@kathryncastanares525]

Soap Queen TV thank you so much!! thank you for always responding to my questions when it ask. Thanks to all of your wonderful and helpful advice and videos, i have been very successful in my journey making my own cosmetics. thank you! oh and yoi were right! definitely needed more polysorbate.lol

[@emmanuellelee6236]

Hi Ann, I was wondering how much of each ingredient you would need if you were making a large spray perfume bottle thankyou!

[@waxandwanefilms]

Hello! Great video. If I want to make a 2oz bottle of spray perfume, what math would I need to do with your ingredients to make the perfect amount? Also, if I wanted to make a batch so I could create multiple 2oz bottles of my perfume. Thanks for the help!

[@bramble-berry]

Hello! A great way to resize your recipes is to find out the percentage of each ingredient. To do that, add up all the amounts in the recipe to get the total. Then, divide each individual amount by the total. Once you have the percentages, you can resize based on your spray bottle. I'll include a blog post that has more helpful information! =) Soapy Math: www.soapqueen.com/bath-and-body-tutorials/tips-and-tricks/math-soapers/

[@KingPharroh]

This sounds so neat! I would love to make my own custom blended perfumes. How long do the perfumes that you make last before turning bad?

[@bramble-berry]

They last around 1 - 2 years, although the scent may weaken and the base may become dry after much longer =)

[@passion0914]

i love you soapqueen!!!!!! your my inspiration,

[@normazaharioudakis1090]

Hello first of all I thank you for all your videos, I have a question I made a massage bar and it’s too soft thank you

[@exitosa888]

Hi AnneMarie! I did the recipe for spray perfume exactly how you said and stayed cloudy! Never got clear. I used 1ml vanilla select and 1 ml jasmine dreams fragrance oil that I bought from bramble berry. What do you think I did wrong? Thank you for your support.

[@nayelischoice]

Is there certain essential oils that I can an cant use on MP soap? Thank you :)

[@AnhNguyen-em2wb]

Fantastic ~^^~ I really love it and I'll try it but what is the shelf life of the spray perfume?

[@Hijabis4ever]

Hi I watched like 5 of your vids and I am addicted. Where were you when I was in Seattle, I wanted to learn how to make soaps and parfumes. Okay now I will subscribe. Can you please make a perfume oil without alcohol. Thank you much.

[@stancexpunks]

The first recipe was a perfume oil without alcohol. If you want it to be a liquid oil, replace the hard butters with liquid oils.

[@brieezy373]

Hello! Thanks so much for all your tutorials! Could phenonip be used in place of optiphen?

[@brieezy373]

Also what is the difference between Polysorbate 80 and Polysorbate 20?

[@bramble-berry]

+Brie Clark Hi Brie! We didn't try Phenonip in this recipe, but I believe it would work just fine! Phenonip is a great all-purpose preservative that works in a wide variety of products. You can use it at 1% of the total weight of your recipe. I would recommend making a small test batch just to see if it works well. =) Learn more about using preservatives here: www.soapqueen.com/bath-and-body-tutorials/lotion/talk-it-out-tuesday-preservatives/ Also, Polysorbate 20 is typically used to emulsify fragrance or essential oils, while Polysorbate 80 is used to emulsify heavier carrier oils, like olive oil. If you have a trickier fragrance or essential oil, Polysorbate 80 can really help get it emulsified. We tested 20 and 80 with our perfume and found 80 worked better. It may take a bit of testing with your recipe, as each fragrance oil is a bit different! Read more about the difference in this awesome post by Susan Barclay-Nichols: swiftcraftymonkey.blogspot.com/2010/05/question-polysorbate-20-vs-polysorbate.html

[@lindaking7664]

thank you

[@taramalhotra9804]

Love all your videos!! You're such an inspiration!! Got a query and I hope I get a response :( I made this perfume spray with lavender FO but the colour is a very pale yellow it has not become clear like the one you've made... Do you think that's because of the fragrance oil?

[@avinashawasthi8567]

Very nice.

[@carriebadereddine3534]

Hello your amazing. I have a quick question. i want to fill a 8 oz bottle, do i just keep doubling the recipe until its full? Or are there different measurements for 8oz bottles? I appreciate your help.

[@yourbeautiful7]

Hello, :) I would very much like to try some of your products, but... shipping to Canada is so high

[@bramble-berry]

Hi Marilyn! Our shipping costs are based on weight and distance, and because Canada is considered international it can be a bit more pricey. You can read more about that in our international shipping policies: www.brambleberry.com/International-Shipping-Policies.aspx Some of our international customers like to go together on orders so they can split the shipping costs. That may be an option for you! Thanks so much for your feedback. We really appreciate it. =)

[@MegaZidzid]

WOW, thank you

[@hailieasdfjkl]

If you leave out the distilled water and just use alcohol, do you still need the preservative? And do you need the emulsifier if you don't care about having to shake it?

[@BeanSTL03]

Thanks

[@curlyj8551]

can you mix essential oils and fragrant oils together to make a solid perfume?

[@stancexpunks]

Curly J yes

[@kinnerygarg]

Why Poysorbate 80 is used? Polysorbate 80 is use to emulsify carrier oils to water. We are using fragrance oil in this receipe. So can we use Polysorbate20?

[@stancexpunks]

kinnery garg I’m sure both can be used but I heard Polysorbate 20 leaves a milky look

[@bramble-berry]

Hi Isobel de Gier! You can customize your soapmaking to your budget. For instance, you can use items from around your household to create molds. =) How to Recycle Your Recyclables: www.soapqueen.com/bath-and-body-tutorials/melt-and-pour-soap/how-to-recycle-your-recyclables/

[@lolitacakes]

Do you think you could add cocoa or shea butter to the solid perfume recipe? Would that throw off how the scent stays on your skin?

[@peterkailas7819]

Absolutely great! Thank you, Soap Queen TV!! But, my question is.. Why Brand Companies using so many other ingredients like ( Limonene,Lianlool,Hexyal Cinnamal,Eugenol,Alpha Methyl Ionone etc) ? Are these things so useful??

[@bramble-berry]

+Peter KaIlas Hi Peter! I believe those are aroma chemicals! They are used as components in synthetic fragrance oils. Each one gives a different note to the fragrance. If you prefer a more natural option, you can use essential oils. =) Essential oils: www.brambleberry.com/Essential-Oils-C157.aspx

[@stephhopex]

Great video as always!!! x

[@jennalen7922]

Thanks for the details. I really wonder why you put water and preservative instead of using more amount of alcohol (like perfume base alcohol). Can you explain me? Thanks

[@imonthetube8674]

Google result "A fragrance including water would seem richer to the nostrils since the water would aid unleash the aroma from essential oils, whereas the alcohol concentration would keep it behind. When low alcohol and high water concentration are made, it can result in a middle ground in which little scent can generate the necessary "odor intensity.""

[@Gaafer2007]

Can you show us how to make pheromone perfume or cologne

[@noelgalopante-thesparklepa4827]

Can I substitute yellow beeswax for white? And are essential oils and fragrance oils swappable? Same amounts?

[@airamsasuet]

If I don't have polysorbate what can I replace it with? and can I replace the optiphen with vitamin E oil? also can I replace acohol with witchhazel? sorry too many questions hope you can answer them for me thanks for your time love your videos!

[@shaimamisli2516]

hello, this is a great vid!! I wanna make a perfume with essential oil but no alcohol. Can I just use distilled water or is it better using jojoba oil?

[@bmdwell3882]

When we buy the lip balm containers the tube kind.. or any of the containers.. are they ready to use or do we have to sterilize them before filling?

[@EncouragerbyGrace]

Hi Anne Marie, I really enjoy the product information. Any suggestions of blends for guys that are clean, airly, and crisp. Something not remotely sweet or too citrus? Thanks!!!

[@bramble-berry]

Hello! I think a great fragrance to start out with is Moroccan Mint Fragrance Oil. It would smell great with Green Tea Fragrance Oil or Fresh Linen Cybilla Fragrance Oil. =) Fragrance oils: www.brambleberry.com/Alphabetical-C162.aspx

[@Zoralda]

In our country we do not use oz, so can you write me how is it to ml? Thy for the video, its useful very much.

[@TERTOTREN]

I was wondering if I used the fresh mango to make perfume would I still need a middle and base note since the fragrance already has it?

[@vidaldavenell]

Thank you for uploading this video. Ive been wanting to get into the perfume business and create my own line because I love perfume so much! I have a question: When making a spray perfume, how do you know how much of each ingredient to add to the fragrance oil to create a large batch of perfume? Thank you in advance for your response.

[@ElaineLombardo]

Hi - I'd like to make enough to fill a 2oz bottle. Could you give me some help in figuring out how much of each ingredient I should be adding to make up that much? Thank you!!

[@lesleythomas9865]

Hello, I want to make a perfume spray for dogs. Can I use this recipe, is it oily when finished,would it make the fur greasy? Really enjoyed your video.

[@bermygirl2]

Hi Ann-Marie If you can use just cyclomethicone as the base for you perfume why add DPG and 91% Alcohol? What are the benefits to adding the extra ingredients?

[@SunATCtrade]

If anyone could answer.... what is the life span of the spray perfume? How long would it last?

[@SuzannahRandomerrZannahAHS]

I love this video!! How long would this take to make? And would I be able to make this using other fragrances to make my own signature scent? Finally where can I get the spray bottles? Could I get them at my local craft store?

[@belovedby5759]

Hi. I did this recipe twice and my perfume doesn't look clear but white milky color. I don't know why I think maybe my polysorbate is more thick consistency. Please help !!! What have I done wrong? Thank you very much.

[@mokienatrix]

Is there a general rule on proportions for hard/soft/liquid components?

[@paridhiagarwal5677]

Wow Wowww wowwww Just love it!!!!!

[@Miriansp1]

Great explanation! thank-you.

[@bramble-berry]

You're welcome! So glad you enjoyed the video. =)

[@rasmanda]

Very good Vdo. Can you tell me different between fragrance oil and essential oil i am confused :). And Is those product is easily avaiable in market?.

[@eileenfb1948]

Polysorbate 80 is synthetic. Rubbing alcohol is cheap but use good vodka instead. Never put on your skin anything you wouldn't feel was fit to eat, then add essential oils.

[@bramble-berry]

+eileenfb1948 Everything in this recipe is skin safe! We have done a lot of research and testing on this recipe and feel safe using it on our skin. If you're not comfortable with the liquid option, you may like the solid perfume! It's made with oils like coconut, meadowfoam, avocado and beeswax. Because it's all oil and wax, no emulsifier is needed. =) Solid Perfume Base: www.brambleberry.com/Solid-Perfume-Base-P5884.aspx

[@ramkumarchinnappa6283]

Hi I want use the perfumes in detergents powder and liquids Can I use essential oils with Polysorbate 20, 80?or Do you have any another suggestion ?

[@Dalante420]

Do you have to dilute the essential oils before you mix them?

[@giselleneale9237]

Can u use everclear vodka instead of the rubbing alcohol ?

[@chelseet11]

hi! i had a few questions and was hoping you can help. one, i like really strong scents. using this method, could i double the amount of fragrance oil while still keeping the amount of optiphen, alcohol, polysorbate, and water? two, i noticed on the bramble berry site, the essential oils and fragrance oils don't mention in the description that they can be used for perfume. most of the descriptions talk about how they can be used in soaps and stuff, and most people who review the oils don't mention anything about using them in perfumes. do you ever have any problems using these oils in perfumes? is there a difference between fragrance oil and essential oil? if i make a spray perfume, can i combine both of these types? thanks!

[@LadyLahdeedah]

***** Any oil that can be used in soaps can be used in perfumes. If they can be used in soaps, they are cosmetic grade or "skin-safe". Essential oils are extracted from plants. Fragrance oils can be synthetic or blended esentials oils to produce a specific scent. You can combine essential oils and fragrance oils so long as they are both cosmetic grade or "skin-safe".

[@stancexpunks]

You should watch her fragrance and essential oils video. She explains it well. The reason why you don’t often see the reviews mentioning perfume is because perfume is not often made. Soap is much more commonly made also considering that brambleberry is mostly a soap supply store

[@mannalovejoyb496]

Hello! Thank you so much for all your videos that you post they are always so helpful. I have two question number one Can you give me a formula that i can use making perfumes using vodka that is one ounce or more. number two some essential oils like rose frankincense have carrier oil already in them how do i factor it in without it seperating

[@ladymsoaps]

Can you add a little extra fragrance without it compromising the recipe? My husband likes what I made but he said he’d love it to be stronger

[@MegaFairandsquare]

I must say that these mini sprayers are very high qualities Ann! I will be ordering more in the near future. & Please please think about working on a floriental blend tutorial for your very loyal fan. Thank you....Talk to you soon on the soap queen blog

[@bramble-berry]

I'm so glad to hear that you enjoy them, and thanks for the suggestion =)

[@deelange8496]

I LOVE the Black Amber & Lavender oil. I'd like to make a spray perfume. What should I use for the different notes? I really just want the scent to be the BA& L. Thanks for your help!

[@1gr8lpta]

Always great

[@sockmonkey828]

I was just looking into making my own solid perfume and then you upload this! Thanks! :) I have a question, would I be able to use my own perfume to scent it? Are there essential oil blends available to buy that smell like commercial perfumes?

Sorry forgot to ask if you can share with some essential oils perfume recipe because I can't smell for a years but I want to smell good for my husband. Please help! !! Thank you again.

I have done this several times and my mix never turns clear. Why is that? Is this a problem? I am using everything correctly.

[@Vetiver386]

Hi Soap Queen! Quick question: is it ok to mix essential oils with fragrance oils? And if so, do I still need to use preservative? Thanks for the video!

You can mix fragrance and essential oils! They smell really nice together. Also, preservatives are needed when the recipe contains water. So you will still need a preservative for the spray perfume recipe, but not for the solid perfume recipe. =) Read more about preservatives here: www.soapqueen.com/bath-and-body-tutorials/lotion/talk-it-out-tuesday-preservatives/ How to Blend Essential Oils Safely: www.soapqueen.com/bath-and-body-tutorials/tips-and-tricks/how-to-blend-essential-oils-safely/ Fragrance Oil Blending Tips: www.soapqueen.com/bath-and-body-tutorials/tips-and-tricks/fragrance-oil-blending-tips/

Is there any concern for the oils to mess up the plastic bottles? I remember when I first found a really nice smelling oil a long time ago. I added it to a travel size pray bottle as a way to diffuse it when I wore it. I didn't know that oils and plastics don't get along. I know you added an emulsifier. Does that play a role, or do you use a specific grade/type of plastic bottle?

Hi, Great question! You're right, it is never a good idea to leave undiluted essential or fragrance oil in a plastic container -- it will eat through the plastic (I learned that the hard way too)! However, because this essential oil is being mixed into a base of oils and waxes, it won't eat through plastic like it would if it was just plain oil =)

Will you still need the Optiphen if you take out the water and just use alcohol?
