How to make
Ingredients
- Essential oils
- Pure grain alcohol (vodka)
- Water
Directions: First, mix 25 drops of essential oils comprising base, middle and top notes. As you add the oils, keep smelling them. Now, add a few drips of the bridge oil. Now, add 2.5 oz. of alcohol and shake it for a few minutes and then keep it as it is for the next 48 hours or a total of six weeks because the longer it sits, the stronger the fragrance. Add 2 tablespoons of spring water and stir it and pour it through a coffee filter and store it in a bottle.
Now your perfume is ready-all you have left to do is to give it a name. Go ahead, the world is waiting for your signature perfume.

There is a brand that comes in a green box and little packets called Stevia Sweet Leaf. Publix has it in their Greenwise area. I’m not sure how it would do in baking because it has FOS in the powder & isn’t purely stevia. Just make sure whatever brand you buy is pure white stevia. Try to stay away from products that use the root as it is more bitter. Also stay away from the brown and green varieties. They are also bitter.I’m not sure if Amazon Herbs makes a powder, but their liquid is very high quality. You may want to check them out at amazonherbs.com.
