"There are two ways of being creative. One can sing and dance. Or one can create an environment in which singers and dancers flourish."
Warren G. Bennis
When I had been to Ahmedabad some 2years back, during December, I had come across the Art of Aromatics. When I heard that perfumes can be made at home I was astonished. The curiosity in me had started buildng up. I was impatient to learn and know how it was possible to make it at home. I was even told that it take less than 5 minutes to prepare a bottle of 30ml. The next day itself I took my cousin along to meet the person who was teaching this art.
I was excited and curious to create fragrances in my own combination. This further was developed by me as I learnt the Art of Perfume making. The knowledge of making perfume was basic but my creativity helped me to create new fragrances like Black lily,Nature treat,Ice spice,etc.
My life was filled with aroma and I wanted to spread the fragrance of perfume around. I would love to share the process of making perfumes.
Materials required:-
- Ps (Basic liquid used often called alcohol)
- Ss (Fragrance available)
- Fixo-lite (A medium added to keep the fragrance long lasting)
- Funnel jar (Used to mix)
- Glass rod or any medium to stir.
- Beautiful refillable bottles
Steps to making perfumes:-
(For 30ml bottle)
- Take 25ml of Ps in the funnel jar.
- Add 3ml of Ss and 2ml of Fixo-lite in the jar.
- Stir them well and later after 2 minutes fill them in the refillable bottle.
- The long lasting and aromatic fragrance is made in less then 5minutes:-)
Perfumes can be made at home at little expense and gives me the satisfaction of creating something different. It is a nice gift people are forever asking me to make perfumes for them. May be in future I might create a Perfumery and provide employment opportunities for a few people. Well this is also a kind of creation.
