So I have received my order from http://www.thefragranceshop.com, around two weeks ago.
I have ordered a couple of oil fragrance samples (the $6 ones).

This whole scene of fragrance oil is new to me and it is only recent that I have learned that we can make our own fragrance. So since the colognes we buy from stores are mostly alcohol and that's why they don't last as long on us (which is very true in my case. I always wonder why I even bother applying alcohol since the scent is gone 1-2 hours later.

I have went on Youtube but the ones I have found talk about making a perfume with vanilla, roses, etc. but I'm looking to convert my fragrance oils to cologne sprays that would be stronger than the ones we buy from stores (so I guess higher oil fragrance concentration). For example, I sprayed 1 million on my left wrist and applied the oil that I bought from them on my right wrist. I prefer the original spray version. I'm not sure if it's because they didn't do it close enough to the original or if it smells a bit different due to its lack of alcohol.

What's SteveO's diffusion technology? (This one here. Do I buy this and simply pour an amount of oil in it?

I have know idea , bt,i plan on keeping an eye on this thread to find out

I third Im watching this thread.

I want to make my own cover scents. Im interested in essential oils. Will some of you post your exact recipes please? Also, what flavors are you using?

If you can get this down pat you should buy some hedione to add

The most basic method is 50/50 oils with alcohol. Vodka works just fine, and it's what I do when I turn Love Potion fragrances into something I can spray. They need a little steep time after you mix them, though.

I bought a bottle of everclear and mixed it with EO with great success. We made a bug replant and a cologne.
