Creating Your Own Seduction Scent

There are many ways to seduce a man. Some use charm while others rely on the outfit. One thing that always works even in a crowded room is the scent that is sprayed on a woman's body.

For this to work, the person has to figure out which scent works best. This can only be done by walking into a store and trying the various bottles that are on display.

Instead of just smelling it, it is best  to apply this on the skin. This is because the contents of each bottle will react differently to one's natural chemicals.

Since it is hard to distinguish one smell from the other after a few trials, the person should stop and smell some coffee beans first so the nose will be sensitive once again to the other products.

The rule of thumb when selecting the perfume is that those who have dry skin should use one that has a strong scent. Those who are oily should use something lighter in order for it to last for a few hours.

Since women use various creams to keep the body healthy, it is best to check if this will have a negative reaction when these are mixed. Those who do should change this to the same brand as the perfume that can be purchased separately or in a traveler's kit.

Another tip to seduce the man will be to use unscented toiletries so the focus will be on the perfume that was sprayed on.

The perfume being used might be expensive on the woman's budget. There is a cheaper alternative and that is by coming up with one that is custom made.

For this to work, the customer will have to buy the essential oils and know the importance of each one. These are divided into three namely called the top, middle and base notes.

These are derived from plant extracts that are also used by perfume manufacturers. The person has the option of creating a scent similar to that favorite perfume or make one up that is much better.

After getting all the ingredients, this is the time that these will be mixed with together. The person should not throw everything in at once. This should be done drop by drop so the woman will be able to smell it and see how it does.

When the right mix has been made, the person should stop and add the bridge note and the alcohol. It will take time for the contents to settle down so this should be stored somewhere for the next 48 hours.

The last part about making your own perfume will be adding some water and then filtering this to make sure there are no solid contents. This practice is also being done by perfume manufacturers to make sure it is pure.

Some perfumes may stain when this is sprayed on clothes. Since it is hard to tell if the homemade one will do it, the person should spray this on the skin before putting anything on.

These places should include the wrists, behind the neck and ears, around the joints from the elbows to the knees and of course on one's chest 

The nice thing about custom-made perfume is that this can’t be bought from the store making the item and the man exclusively the woman's.

While perfume can be very expensive, understand that you can make your own perfumes.

The basic source of natural fragrances used in the creation of perfume are plant extracts called essential oils. Essential oils are the extracted concentrated scents from plants, which is used as the base of perfumes. It will be interesting to note that sometimes, the different parts of a particular aromatic plant can produce different smells and the nuances of each can be used and blended along with other essential oils from totally different plants to create that wonderfully unique fragrance.

When making your own perfume, you can opt to purchase ready made essential oils or do your own extraction.

The higher the concentration of the essential oils, the more aromatic it is.

To make and extract your own essential oils, you will be using a multitude of plant parts to be able to achieve the fragrance that you want. For instance, some plants will have aromatic barks, or just have aromatic flowers. In case of fruits though, it is easier and best to extract essential oils from the rind of citrus fruits.

Not all fruits will be able to yield the expected scents when extracted so you're better off sticking to the fruits from the citrus family. These plant parts are not the only areas where you can extract scents though. There are of course leaves like those the chamomile and violet plants. You can also extract essential oils from some roots and some seeds.

Making your own perfume solves the problem if certain allergic reactions from highly processed and synthetic scents that are available in the market. So make your own perfume and have fun with creating your own blends that is just right for you.

Elegance, sophisticated in one blend: your own

Blending perfumes is not a joke nor is it easy. It involves handling various natural oils and blending them into something that smells beautiful. Essential oils and absolutes are usually used in making perfume.

These substances emit very strong odors that could make you really sick especially if you work in unventilated environments. Thus, it is necessary that you safeguard your blending procedures taking time to install safety procedures.

When working with aromatic oils and such, there's a tendency to become too accustomed with the smell. At times your nose has been exposed too long on the smell of oils and various blends that you become somewhat "immune" to the smell.

At this point, you really need to take some short breaks. You could take a walk and get some fresh air or run a couple of lapses or any activity which would result to some heavy breathing. This will clear you nose. Another common practice not only by those blending perfumes but as well as those trying various types of perfumes on a single time, is sniffing coffee beans.

As a perfume blender, you should always try and give each blend a chance. Let the blend evolve in a bottle first. This will allow a fresh blend to properly meld and mellow which creates rather surprising scents and character. You should treat each blend this way. You need some patience and let things settle down. Never rush things.

It is like making wine, you blend the wind, seal it in barrels and wait for years to drink the brew. At least for perfumes, it will not take you that long. Also, once you put a perfume on, let it settle and evolve on your skin. As you left the perfume on your skin, the blend reacts and changes because of your body heat. Allow the base tones to emerge first before passing judgment on the blend itself.

Basically when you start blending natural perfumes, you're mixing three oils: to top note, the heart note and the base note oils. You choose what oils appeal to you and start mixing them up together. Ideal top notes include citrus oils like bergamot, lemon, mandarin and orange.

Also popular top notes are conifer oils, mint oils, cardamom, basil, chamomile, juniperberry, ginger, petitgrain and rosemary. Middle notes, on the other hand, use various floral oils and absolutes like elemi, coriander, galbanum, sweet marjoram, geranium, lavender and nutmeg. The best base oils are wood oils like cedarwood, gaiac, linaloe wood and sandalwood and resin oils like frankincense and myrrh.

You get one oil from each note and start putting them together in separate a bottle. Be sure to write down how many drops of each you blending. Start working on combinations. You could start with equal amounts moving on to some other mixes until you get a sniff of the scent you're looking for.

If you think you got a great blend, cover the bottle and warm by rolling the bottle between your palms. Turn it upside down to blend the mix further. Smell your concoction. Just remember that the top note oils will fade more quickly than the middle and base notes so having a strong top note may not be that bad. As I mentioned earlier, let the perfume evolve.

Get a strip of coffee filter and apply a drop of perfume on it. Let is stay on for a while. In an interval of a couple of minutes to a couple of hours, keep sniffing the strip so you could get an idea of how the perfume evolves.

You really need a lot of patience when you make your own perfume. If you want the easy way then you could always buy one from the mall. But you will never experience the joy and triumph one experiences when they maker their own perfume.
