Perfume Oil Brewing: A Manly Scent for [profile] marxdarx

A Manly Scent for [livejournal.com profile] marxdarx


Slightly short of 1/4 cup almond oil (spill)
3 drops rosemary oil -- lid is broken -- should fix!
...Nice herbal piney evergreen smell to it
1 drop orange oil. Hm.
No Frankincense. Does not smell complimentary.
1 drop myrrh [oil]. Seems to cancel out other scents. Bummer.
3 more drops rosemary
1 drop orange Better. Damn, the myrrh's powerful!
2 rosemary
2 orange (oops, meant 1; ah well)
2 more rosemary
1 large pinch cinnamon
....--not quite it
1 large pinch cinnamon
2 drops rosemary -- better, not quite. --strong. --He likes.
1 drop orange
..............--yes.


[edit to mix]
[livejournal.com profile] votania says it lacks something.
The Viking says musk.
....--Or cedar, Votania says.
--smelling it, it's musk.
2 drops musk
......--little high on musk (Viking)
2 Rosemary
1 orange


...--Perfect. ([livejournal.com profile] votania & Viking.)




Yeah.
...This is also from the original brewing notes. Again, I'll have to come up with a summation recipe so others can duplicate it with more ease.

I should like to get some cinnamon oil, for ease of brewing. Mmm.




Oh yeah. This is delightful. [livejournal.com profile] marxdarx has never smelled anything like it, but it's him.

If it's skin contact that is the problem, you might *try* carefully putting some on his hair instead of his skin. Might not cause a reaction that way. I always put my perfume in my hair anyway; the scent lasts longer that way.

Speaking as somebody with skin allergies, putting it in my hair is almost as bad as skin contact, because I break out wherever my hair hits me.

hair scent?

Interesting. I never thought of that before. I'll try it.

Though I'll also have to figure out just which ingredient makes me allergic.
