You are a wealth of knowledge.. I often come and watch and send others to do the same so they may learn what you have to offer. Thank you for doing what you do.. haters and trolls... are omnipresent - especially when you are helping ppl.. its how u know youre doing good things,.
@CamndoMr All you need is vodka and any one of these essential oils--Sage--Rosemary--Summer SAvoury ( winter causes the libido to stay south ) Pine--cajeput--cade or juniper 1 ounce of vodka to 5 drops and percuss it 80-100 times and then let sit for a day or 2 and you will have made your woodsy outdoor scent let me know how it goes
the leathery scent can either be a synthetic or a mixture of esssential oils reacting with the leather--juniper---cedar---cypress and rosemary or sace can be pu together and once they reaction is over in a ix you can sometimes replicate that scent---depending what these oils gwet exposed to Tony
what are you trying to achieve reduction of scent or drying out---reduction of scent---use any e/o of choice in a carrier---reduction of sweat use sage internally and make a rince as well Tony
@lavendderrable No worries the vinegar will be a tad strong and not pleasant to wear but you could ingest this to increase relief from anxiety---to be able to rst---to disinfect a wound topically--to use for different type of bug bites---hope this gives you some ideas
@lawfour there are 2 frames of thought on this some say blend the oils and allow to set for a week because this will give the essentialm oils time to mix ---another is that it will as well and maybe alter it in a different way---either way I have found work---and you get a different effect as well with the different combos and sometimes you cannot replicate what you did the first time SO explore and expand and do not get caught up on being restricted---use common sense and explore
@robbynood if you are in north america a good tripled filtered quadripled distilled will work smirnoff-skye-silent sam--are some to utilize but look at the filtering and distilling Tony
add an essential oil to the oil you wish to burn orrr add a drop(s) of the essential oil in a water container in a shallow metal container that you can sit over a candle and allow the heat to evaporate the water and oil---so mostly it is a fusion of an oil --in candles they rarely are coming out in the melting of the candle due to the limited mix in the waxes T
@wayofsalaf --herbal shops--aromatherapy shops---online---the trick is to figure this out--I have never used it so I would know but in putting them togetheruse only 1-5 drops butttt the key again is to decide which one to use that high or low and to let sit for a bit ( 2 weeks or longer ) allowing the oils to mix then add the alcohol of choice aftrewards---but this will be a trial an error till you figure it out so do not be impatient---some things do take time and process
@JepMaster8 Ok the only thing I could think of is either A) the essential oil was a dilution more then an actual oil because this will happen when you add a regular oil to the mix or it may have some kind of solvent---dmso when added to alcohol will initially do this as well--the essence is again a bastardation so this would be expected B) the alcohol but the svedka as far as I know is clean like smirnoff---was there any residue from something else leftover in the bottle?
The Practice of Aromatherapy by Jean Valnet---one of the best references I can tell you and Culpepper for herbalism---with these 2 books anyone who would study could be a formidable healer and be a real PIA to the medica field but a boon to humanity Tony
@balancedesign2010 yes 40 proof is good--more then enough---if you are getting clouding then the essential oil maybe ---less purified then it should be or they used a solvent to get the oils out if they did then this would explain the reason--make sure you got steam distilled essential oils--look them up online and see how they are distilling there oils T
@JepMaster8 What type of ESSENTIAL oil are you using??and are you mixing it with anything else---if so that could be why--usually with the e/o there is not this cloudiness it usually is clear unless the oil itself is processed with a solvent---then this maybe the cause as well
@nico27004 as long as the store bought--it will depend on the grade of essential oil you use lower quality it dies off sooner the higher the frequency of the oil and no base note then again it will disissipate quicker
WELL it sounds good to me but corn starch will not work for some people it can bring on other odours depending butttt I think you should make it and allow people to tweak ---so go for it---a simple deoderant would be just an essential oil diluted with oi and applied---ir take a lemon peel and rub under the pit ---just suggestions Tony
@tamishay4life you can use what you wish but then it will not be a cologne---use an oil or even water or any other carrier but a cologne is alcohol based---but in saying then it does not mean you cannot make a scented oil to wear or even a type of hydro oil--but keep in mind this was a demo for making a colgne but you can Mkae it any way you like--make it better and share what you learned
@MrCUZZ107 Yes to the last part you can use whatever essential oils do not use synthetics--if you want to utilize an oil with this then you are making a perfume--read and research the oils --I do not advocate soybean or canola oil at all under no circumstances--due to the toxicity of these oils and when mixing these essential oils some are estrrogenic and will exasperate the endocrine system with soy-almond-apricot-coconut-palm -jojoba-sunflower-sesame are options to utilize T
@SenorPipaDeLaPaz Almost immediately or sometimes i just let them sit--remember the alcohol and the essential oils are solvents--they will penetrate almost immediately--and the longer you let them sit the more they adjust---so the features you get in one month may become more potent by the third or change entirely this is where you get to play and observe
these are essential oils...so they would be all steam distilled.....and that would depend on the use of the oils to develop this...everyday use and direct sunlight could do this if using it on the skin but if you spray it on clothing ...then there is no issues or if sprayed on feet before applying socks and shoes.....again it will depend as well on how strong you would make your cologne...i used 3 drops.....you can go lowere as well or higher....and then use accordingly
@kiddfresh2191 usually anything citrus or herbal or woodsey--and combining them---lest say balsaam fir with a sage and lemon as an example--make them and the apply them you can then see which is the ones that will be most attractive to you T
@lawfour Hi Depends what you are trying to achieve ---some aromaterhaapist will put in a few or alot depending again what the condition is---just as a cologne usually 3 is adequate ---sometimes one is---it again depends on the issues and what you are trying to achieve
@mssalafiyyah Cinnamon---if added to differnt things can sustain preservation--for fat sage and thyme and bay leaf and rosemary---use either essential oil or herb--- utilizing citric acid as well as salt will act as a preservative---do a hunt on some places and get some other ideas--lots to choose from-- T
@balancedesign2010 save your money unless you are doing something that specifically has to have thee--if your making a colgne thenall you need is what you have --if you are making a perfume then add oil with it other then the essential oils---which essential oils did you use? Tony
@nico27004 How clean do you want it??? the reason I am using clear is due to the fact it is cleaner then the other as far as whiskey goes it is dirtier--brandy is as well but cleaner then whiskey---if you are going to use anything it would be to your best interst to minimize anything that is not as clean or pure as possible ( nothing is 100% ) butt you get the jest--rubbing alcohol is out od the question --I know someone will ask this next
@boldhero44 My hands or her hands ---any of the woddy oils or spice oils to alleviate the pain--would use peanut oil + lanolin combo with pine --maybe terbinth( turpentine)-and rosemary--as one suggestion T
the cleaner the better---here I will either use anything tripled distilled--quadrupled filtered--so depending where you live access the cleanest you can get---even everclear or spyritus or grappa( home made) is good Tony
@wayofsalaf this is what I found--Praline, Lemon, Kalamanzi, Tagète, Sage, Cinnamon, Black Cardamom, Rosewood, Tolu Balm, Ebony, Patchouli, Black Amber, Calabrian --- T
@HerbsPlusBeadWorks Went to the site and seen alot of there oils are not showing distilation--neroli and geranium---alot of the rest are---maybe that is the issue Tony
@balancedesign2010 what oils??? you should be just using essential oils and nothing else unless you are making a scented oil then yes it will be cloudy--if you are using just alcohol and the essential oils and you are getting cloud then the essential oil is counterfeited with other materials or the alcohol you are using is low grade---what brand of E/O are you using? T
Do you make beard oils ? And would you recommend using essentials oils for beards ? This weekend I made a little beard oil which I put johoba oil, lime juice, cinnamon, cocunut oil, the scent is pretty good and sweet with a soothing scent as well but can I use these? And keep up the great work great vid!
hope you get some ideas from this you can look at some good info from a book called The Practice of Aromatherapy by Jean Valnet...one of the best out there for anyone who has an interest in Essential oils and there uses for external and Internal as well
@HerbsPlusBeadWorks Hi and thanks for the reply. I used an essential oil called: "Nature's Alchemy - Ylang Ylang 100% essential Oil" alone and mixed it with Svedka Vodka. I also tried another bottle using fragrance oils + the vodka just to see if it would make a difference but they didn't. Both mixes are cloudy as soon as I shake it up. Smells awesome but cloudy.
@wayofsalaf ok I am hoping you are using the term fragrance as a scent not a synthetic--if you use anything only essential oils ---I would be using vodka or gin or grappa---any will do and you might get a different reaction with the different alcohols as well
@paopaomanalansan you can use it ---but it is not as penetrating you can even use an oil and alcohol mix as well --remember the alcohol allows for better and depper pentration just use the alocohl you would drink like vodka---sky line ---smirnoff--- should help
Hey buddy, I really appreciate you taking out the time to show this video. I just have two questions.You used three different essential oil (Base, Mid, and Top), four drops of each; I'm trying to make a cologne to mimick the smell of my favorite cologne, but I noticed that there's more than one base, and mid, and top. What would you reccomend for drops for the base, mid, and top? Thank you
play with it--sometimes the longer they sit the more they change and something you start out with can be something completely different over time---this allows the freq to really meld and mix offering a different tone --play with them see what you come up with Tony
Do you not need water in this mix does the alcohol have it? I thought you need atleast 10% water? I am so thankful i clicked on your video you the man!!!! I always wanted to make my own scent.
Is the Oil of Orange the Sweet or Bitter variety? Thanks in advance.

Hi How to apply "Transversal Notes" what percentage should I apply. For example: Lancome LA VIE EST BELLE EAU DE PARFUM INTENSE used Transversal Notes are Iris, Fine delicacies Accord. I would really appreciate if you explain about this. Thank you 😊
he also gave you arsenic---do you know how to apply this to heal?? it's all about application and use---and in your case you need to use your grey matter and exercise this and utilize this not to deaden but to awaken and utilize-- T
hi i love learning about the making of cologne and i find thats your vid has been the most ed info of all. i like how you keep it plain and simple. when i make my own is it illegal to sell on streets and lable it my self?
is it the garden of life diet 360?? would work like my iodine and butter or coconut oil combo and reducing the grains---if it is this it is basically caffeine with iodine and coconut and with the other components to expedite the stuff in the system---5 kilos is about right per month anything more then that will have a double relapse---sounds good Tony
@TheNaturalWoman -- remember --it is your house ( body) you are protecting and covering---so do what works and if others cannot handle it---they will either grow or you will move one---either way it is a development and a evolving in learning
Thanks for the great tutorial! I'm just having one problem. My mix is coming out cloudy. i.e. Not clear like the colognes I'm used to. Will this cloudiness go away within the 2 weeks? I'm using 80 proof, 5 times distilled vodka. Thanks.
I don't know--I use from a company in AZ herbstop and use karroch- some NOW and aura cassia--but if I want high end with specific oils herbstop is where I get them T
@niksinthe916 it's better hands down--the colognes you buy today are laoded with the same alcohol they make antifreeze---so yo are already ahead---I have had stuff I made stand for 3-5 years depending and it changes as well--based on the frequency of the oils -as far as projection goes -ll depends on time of the month for a gal her pheromones will be stronger so the impact with colognes more so-for guys again will be when there t levels are on a surge diet as well will determine the potency T
I'm trying to learn the ways of herbalism and aromatherapy. Can you recommend a book. And where can I get different mixtures of essential oils to make into colognes/perfumes? Love all your videos! Keep it up ehh
I do not use anything else do to the fact that I want something to penetrate and do not want anything Like glycerin which is soy based and as a result increasing estrogens and cancers----you can use a carrier oil instead but then it would be a rub on rather then a spray due to the fact that the oil would be to thick to go through a mister---so oil or even a cream base would maybe suffice
@HerbsPlusBeadWorks i am using just essential oils, from the health food store. the brand is atlantic aromatics. the alcohol is 40 proof - i cant get anything higher as every shop i ve been to in dublin says it's illegal but i heard i might get it at the chemists. some sites have told me 40 proof vodka is ok so thats what i used.
Hey Tony, cool channel. I plan on reading the book you talk about in the video. My question is, would there be any benefits to using oil to extract essential oils rather than alcohol? If I were making lemon extract to use as a natural preservative(for instance), does the alcohol kill off or inhibit any of the anti-oxidant properties? I don't mind using something like Everclear in the least bit, it's just something I've always wondered about.
At least how many days would you say the oils and vodka should be left sitting untouched before being used? How many days do you leave them alone before giving them to your clients? Thanks Eddie
Thanks for responding one more thing I actually was hoping to create my own fragrance won't that mean i will have to mix quite a few oils together to get a different scent and if 1 drop is enough and I am using a carrier oil would it be best to mix the essential oils together first then add a carrier oil. On another subject I been watching your other video and they are great, u made me want to get a juicer to make my own juices. I look forward to watch the other videos. Thanks for taking
Hey Tony, As always your stuff is great and I hope to help spread the knowledge. I had a question, If I order the oils form the place you recommend, what happens to them when they cross the border and get radiated, I am in Ontario. How will the radiation affect them ??
hey Tony, in this video you add a total of 16 drops of cajeput, cypres, orange & grapefruit to a total volume of 60ml including vodka, my question is regarding the proportion for the eau de cologne which usually is 85% vodka (75-100 proof) and 15% oils which in this video is different. Will this affect the strength of the fragrance or is it fine? Also did not get the author's name you mentioned for Art of Aromatherapy "Jee Val Ne?"
Jean Valnet-- maybe --remember you can modify this so there is no set amount ~ you can make it strong or weak as you like~ not everyone wants to be overwhelmed Tony
Nice video Tony. to make the scent stick do you also add glycerin as some have suggested to the mix? If so what percentage of vodka, glycerin and oils to make a 3.4oz? Also, can you use body oils that are replicas of famouse fragrances such as cool water etc. in this mix? Please let me know. Sunscribed!!
went to see if I could locate them and I could not find them online---I found atlanta school--I found some nuclear site---so is there some url you have send it to me in the message Thanks

@jardidge UMMM I didn't thinl I was talking our of my backside---whatt part of the essential oils healing are you having a hard time with??? they use them in the food industry as a natural prtectant agins pathogens of all sorts to protect and preserve then foods we eat--if you need assistance to become enlightened I acan direct you to any number of references but don;t stay ignorant it will be your undoing
@HerbsPlusBeadWorks Pardon me. I think straight Henna Flower (Gul Heena in Indian pharmacoepia) is also of that nature of a fragrance, but after lingering for about 10 minutes. Cedar and sage sound good, maybe with frankincense Medium) or agarwood oud (strong) or tobacco (strong) essentials.
You are a wealth of knowledge.. I often come and watch and send others to do the same so they may learn what you have to offer. Thank you for doing what you do.. haters and trolls... are omnipresent - especially when you are helping ppl.. its how u know youre doing good things,.
I love making Cologne with my Young Living Essential Oils. Looking for more recipes and this is how I found you. Thank you for all of your knowledge!
More videos on essential oils and perfume making please. You are straight to the important points
@CamndoMr All you need is vodka and any one of these essential oils--Sage--Rosemary--Summer SAvoury ( winter causes the libido to stay south ) Pine--cajeput--cade or juniper 1 ounce of vodka to 5 drops and percuss it 80-100 times and then let sit for a day or 2 and you will have made your woodsy outdoor scent
let me know how it goes
the leathery scent can either be a synthetic or a mixture of esssential oils reacting with the leather--juniper---cedar---cypress and rosemary or sace can be pu together and once they reaction is over in a ix you can sometimes replicate that scent---depending what these oils gwet exposed to
Tony
what are you trying to achieve reduction of scent or drying out---reduction of scent---use any e/o of choice in a carrier---reduction of sweat use sage internally and make a rince as well
Tony
@lavendderrable No worries
the vinegar will be a tad strong and not pleasant to wear but you could ingest this to increase relief from anxiety---to be able to rst---to disinfect a wound topically--to use for different type of bug bites---hope this gives you some ideas
@lawfour there are 2 frames of thought on this
some say blend the oils and allow to set for a week because this will give the essentialm oils time to mix ---another is that it will as well and maybe alter it in a different way---either way I have found work---and you get a different effect as well with the different combos and sometimes you cannot replicate what you did the first time
SO explore and expand and do not get caught up on being restricted---use common sense and explore
@robbynood if you are in north america a good tripled filtered quadripled distilled will work
smirnoff-skye-silent sam--are some to utilize but look at the filtering and distilling
Tony
add an essential oil to the oil you wish to burn orrr add a drop(s) of the essential oil in a water container in a shallow metal container that you can sit over a candle and allow the heat to evaporate the water and oil---so mostly it is a fusion of an oil --in candles they rarely are coming out in the melting of the candle due to the limited mix in the waxes
T
@wayofsalaf --herbal shops--aromatherapy shops---online---the trick is to figure this out--I have never used it so I would know but in putting them togetheruse only 1-5 drops butttt the key again is to decide which one to use that high or low and to let sit for a bit ( 2 weeks or longer ) allowing the oils to mix then add the alcohol of choice aftrewards---but this will be a trial an error till you figure it out
so do not be impatient---some things do take time and process
@JepMaster8 Ok the only thing I could think of is either A) the essential oil was a dilution more then an actual oil because this will happen when you add a regular oil to the mix or it may have some kind of solvent---dmso when added to alcohol will initially do this as well--the essence is again a bastardation so this would be expected B) the alcohol but the svedka as far as I know is clean like smirnoff---was there any residue from something else leftover in the bottle?
The Practice of Aromatherapy by Jean Valnet---one of the best references I can tell you
and Culpepper for herbalism---with these 2 books anyone who would study could be a formidable healer and be a real PIA to the medica field but a boon to humanity
Tony
little goes along way and would depend on how many drops as well and how long you let it sit so it can mix--
Tony
@balancedesign2010 yes 40 proof is good--more then enough---if you are getting clouding then the essential oil maybe ---less purified then it should be or they used a solvent to get the oils out if they did then this would explain the reason--make sure you got steam distilled essential oils--look them up online and see how they are distilling there oils
T
@JepMaster8 What type of ESSENTIAL oil are you using??and are you mixing it with anything else---if so that could be why--usually with the e/o there is not this cloudiness it usually is clear unless the oil itself is processed with a solvent---then this maybe the cause as well
@nico27004 as long as the store bought--it will depend on the grade of essential oil you use lower quality it dies off sooner the higher the frequency of the oil and no base note then again it will disissipate quicker
Love this video very informative... Specially the blooper at the end lol
WELL it sounds good to me but corn starch will not work for some people it can bring on other odours depending butttt I think you should make it and allow people to tweak ---so go for it---a simple deoderant would be just an essential oil diluted with oi and applied---ir take a lemon peel and rub under the pit ---just suggestions
Tony
I love this. Can't wait to try it!
annnnndddd you will make them better and share the health
Tony
@tamishay4life you can use what you wish but then it will not be a cologne---use an oil or even water or any other carrier but a cologne is alcohol based---but in saying then it does not mean you cannot make a scented oil to wear or even a type of hydro oil--but keep in mind this was a demo for making a colgne
but you can Mkae it any way you like--make it better and share what you learned
how are you planning to use----would be my question?
Tony
Thank You for the timely response.
Hey brother
Thank you so much for your video. Hope you make another one. God bless.
@MrCUZZ107 Yes to the last part you can use whatever essential oils do not use synthetics--if you want to utilize an oil with this then you are making a perfume--read and research the oils --I do not advocate soybean or canola oil at all under no circumstances--due to the toxicity of these oils and when mixing these essential oils some are estrrogenic and will exasperate the endocrine system with soy-almond-apricot-coconut-palm -jojoba-sunflower-sesame are options to utilize

@SenorPipaDeLaPaz Almost immediately or sometimes i just let them sit--remember the alcohol and the essential oils are solvents--they will penetrate almost immediately--and the longer you let them sit the more they adjust---so the features you get in one month may become more potent by the third or change entirely this is where you get to play and observe
i really enjoyed this video...thankx
@CamndoMr use a sage and cedar wood essential oil this should accomodate this
with alcohol
T
these are essential oils...so they would be all steam distilled.....and that would depend on the use of the oils to develop this...everyday use and direct sunlight could do this if using it on the skin but if you spray it on clothing ...then there is no issues

@nico27004 yes --depending on which oil you use --some can irritate

if it is an essence it will be weak but if it is an essential oil then yes your stuff will rock--yarrow-blue chamomile--rose and jasmine
Tony
if im using only one oil, would I then use 16 drops of the one oil? just wondering what the ratio should be of drops to ml/cc of alcohol
Thanks bro plain and simple instructions
Do you not need water in this mix does the alcohol have it? I thought you need atleast 10% water? I am so thankful i clicked on your video you the man!!!! I always wanted to make my own scent.

I never had that shot before.
What's it taste like?
is it the garden of life diet 360?? would work like my iodine and butter or coconut oil combo and reducing the grains---if it is this it is basically caffeine with iodine and coconut and with the other components to expedite the stuff in the system---5 kilos is about right per month anything more then that will have a double relapse---sounds good

@niksinthe916 it's better hands down--the colognes you buy today are laoded with the same alcohol they make antifreeze---so yo are already ahead---I have had stuff I made stand for 3-5 years depending and it changes as well--based on the frequency of the oils -as far as projection goes -ll depends on time of the month for a gal her pheromones will be stronger so the impact with colognes more so-for guys again will be when there t levels are on a surge diet as well will determine the potency

I'm trying to learn the ways of herbalism and aromatherapy. Can you recommend a book. And where can I get different mixtures of essential oils to make into colognes/perfumes? Love all your videos! Keep it up ehh
I have 'I am juicy coulter' perfume and want to make it oil base what kind of oil can I use so the smell can last long
@Diamob ok
I don;t watch TV so I would not know who he is---thanks for the heads up on who he is
T
I coudn't understand what the last oil was? Is there a recipe listed somewhere on here?
I do not use anything else do to the fact that I want something to penetrate and do not want anything Like glycerin which is soy based and as a result increasing estrogens and cancers----you can use a carrier oil instead but then it would be a rub on rather then a spray due to the fact that the oil would be to thick to go through a mister---so oil or even a cream base would maybe suffice
@HerbsPlusBeadWorks i am using just essential oils, from the health food store. the brand is atlantic aromatics. the alcohol is 40 proof - i cant get anything higher as every shop i ve been to in dublin says it's illegal but i heard i might get it at the chemists. some sites have told me 40 proof vodka is ok so thats what i used.
Hey Tony, cool channel. I plan on reading the book you talk about in the video. My question is, would there be any benefits to using oil to extract essential oils rather than alcohol? If I were making lemon extract to use as a natural preservative(for instance), does the alcohol kill off or inhibit any of the anti-oxidant properties? I don't mind using something like Everclear in the least bit, it's just something I've always wondered about.
What are some oils that the combination smells fresh, like water, with a hint of citrus?
At least how many days would you say the oils and vodka should be left sitting untouched before being used? How many days do you leave them alone before giving them to your clients? Thanks
Eddie
I really like bergamot and patchouli! Patchouli smells really earthy and gets better with age. Sometimes I wear patchouli with my perfume.
@woweewooza meaning??
Tony
Good morning. Can you please put a couple recipes for essential oil cologne. Thank you so much! Have a wonderful day.
some men's cologne smells so good I would buy them!! there was one that kinda had a watermelon musky smell to it and omg
Thanks for responding one more thing I actually was hoping to create my own fragrance won't that mean i will have to mix quite a few oils together to get a different scent and if 1 drop is enough and I am using a carrier oil would it be best to mix the essential oils together first then add a carrier oil. On another subject I been watching your other video and they are great, u made me want to get a juicer to make my own juices. I look forward to watch the other videos. Thanks for taking
Hey Tony, As always your stuff is great and I hope to help spread the knowledge. I had a question, If I order the oils form the place you recommend, what happens to them when they cross the border and get radiated, I am in Ontario. How will the radiation affect them ??
hey Tony, in this video you add a total of 16 drops of cajeput, cypres, orange & grapefruit to a total volume of 60ml including vodka, my question is regarding the proportion for the eau de cologne which usually is 85% vodka (75-100 proof) and 15% oils which in this video is different. Will this affect the strength of the fragrance or is it fine? Also did not get the author's name you mentioned for Art of Aromatherapy "Jee Val Ne?"
Jean Valnet-- maybe --remember you can modify this so there is no set amount ~ you can make it strong or weak as you like~ not everyone wants to be overwhelmed
Tony
@nico27004 yes ---definitely---even the stuff from poland that is 190 proof
T
Nice video Tony. to make the scent stick do you also add glycerin as some have suggested to the mix? If so what percentage of vodka, glycerin and oils to make a 3.4oz? Also, can you use body oils that are replicas of famouse fragrances such as cool water etc. in this mix? Please let me know. Sunscribed!!
I never use anything other then the alcohol and E/O
anything else is something else
Tony
try speciality bottle supply
Tony
went to see if I could locate them and I could not find them online---I found atlanta school--I found some nuclear site---so is there some url you have send it to me in the message
Thanks
Have you tried new directions? I know the shipping is pricey but I like the eos they provide. I make soap with them instead of perfuming.

Hey Tony, great video ! Can you write your recipe (the oils) ? I wrote grapefruit, orange, (cyprus?) and (catch...?) Thank you !
Cajeput🙏
@jardidge UMMM I didn't thinl I was talking our of my backside---whatt part of the essential oils healing are you having a hard time with??? they use them in the food industry as a natural prtectant agins pathogens of all sorts to protect and preserve then foods we eat--if you need assistance to become enlightened I acan direct you to any number of references but don;t stay ignorant it will be your undoing
how much vodka is ok to drink
@HerbsPlusBeadWorks
Pardon me.
I think straight Henna Flower (Gul Heena in Indian pharmacoepia) is also of that nature of a fragrance, but after lingering for about 10 minutes. Cedar and sage sound good, maybe with frankincense Medium) or agarwood oud (strong) or tobacco (strong) essentials.
I missed the last oil too. It was grapefruit, orange, cypress. And?
