Colognes and Perfumes



Deep Lemon Perfume

This is a delicious fragrance and the lemongrass makes it good for divination.

Cedar wood essential oil- 6 drops
Lavender essential oil- 30 drops
Rosemary essential oil- 20 drops
Cypress essential oil- 30 drops
Lemongrass essential oil- 30 drops
Alcohol base - Vodka


Add the essential oils drop by drop into a small measuring jug.
When all the essential oil is in the jug measure its total volume.
Take the total volume of essential oil to be "1 part". Add 4 parts vodka.

This means that the perfume will be 20% essential oil and 80% vodka which is a light, wearable concentration.

Shake well before each use - the essential oil sits on top of the vodka so it all needs to be mixed together
