Orange Spice Room Spray

Reminiscent of warmth and freshness, this room refresher will clear the air and make everything smell wonderfully!

7.5 oz. distilled water

1 oz. polysorbate 20

1/4 teaspoon sweet orange essential oil

1/4 tspn vanilla extract or vanilla fragrance

3/4 teaspoon glycerin

1/4 teaspoon potassium sorbate

Mix together water and rest of ingredients in an 8 oz. bottle. Cap with mister/sprayer and shake well.

Clear Body Mist I

This easy recipe uses polysorbate 20 to emulsify the mix. The perfumer's alcohol will clarify it. Leaves skin feeling cooled and lightly scented.

 

6 oz. perfumer's alcohol + 1 oz. perfumer's alcohol (set aside)

1 oz. polysorbate 20

1/4 tspn ylang ylang
1/4 tspn tangerine

Mix together the alcohol and polysorbate 20. You should have a clear mix. Add the EO's. You should have a turbid mix. Allow to sit for 12 hours. If the mix doesn't clarify, add another 1 oz. alcohol and allow to sit for
several more hours to clear.

HINT: Add a little glycerin to your facial, body and room sprays. It helps keep the water in place on your skin, and in a room spray, it helps the scent linger a little longer.

 

Clear Body Mist II

Add a little more perfumer's alcohol and polysorbate to emulsify absolutes and resinous oils such as patchouli.

8 oz perfumer's alcohol

2 oz. polysorbate 20

1/4 teas. vanilla FO

1/4 tspn jasmin absolute

1/4 tspn patchouli EO

Mix all ingredients together. This should result in a clear mix. If not, allow to sit for several hours. If it still doesn't clear, add 1/2 oz. more alcohol.
