How I Make My Room & Linen Sprays (Updated)
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Please note that everything shown in this video is just what works best for me. There is no wrong or right way of doing things. I urge you to do your own research and testing.
Just a heads up, certain heavier or more complex FO's may appear cloudy at a higher fragrance load percentage. If you experience this, try a 2-3% fragrance load and it should appear more clear. Also, the base won’t play well with bakery scented. The odor attacking enzymes will think the bakery scent is an odor to eliminate.

I was using your homemade with the polysorbate 20. Im just curious why you went to the premade base. What are rhe pros and cons in your expert opinion? Thank you so much for sharing AND your expertise. ♥️
@calafiacandleco
7 ай бұрын
I would say the pros are how quick and easy it is to use, the clear formula, that it’s also an odor eliminator, and I do find the scent to last longer. The cons would be that you go through it fast. One 16oz bottle of the base will only make four 4oz sprays, so you do have to bulk up on the base if you’re going to be making a lot.

Hey, new subbie...I have a couple of questions. Is the preservative already added to the pre-mixed base? And how long does room sprays normally last after made 🤔?
@calafiacandleco
11 ай бұрын
Hello! Yes, you don't need to add anything to the base. That's a great question and I don't know that I have the best answer for that. I would say probably a year or so, as most fragrance oil companies will say their fragrance oils have a shelf life of about a year. I've also read that oils can stay good for two years or longer if stored in a dark, cool place.

Hi there. You would just use the same idea but swap out the 4oz for 2. Convert to grams if you wish. So, if you choose to do 5% fragrance load, you would multiply .05 x 2oz to get the amount of fragrance you would need.
Thanks for information so its 107.3 grams of base and add 5.7grams of fragrance oil to make one bottle
