Dear Mandy,
Thank you so much for this warm review — welcome to the world of fragrance making, and we're thrilled to hear the service and delivery have made such a great first impression!
As for mixing tips, we'd love to help you get started. A few basics to keep in mind:
Always dilute your fragrance oils in a suitable carrier like Fragrasol before use — never apply fragrance oil neat.
Start with a small test batch and a known ratio (e.g. 10-20% fragrance oil to 80-90% alcohol) so you can adjust to your preferred strength.
Let your blend rest ('mature') for a few days, — this allows the scent to settle and develop more fully.
Keep good notes on your ratios so you can recreate (or tweak) a blend you love.
please feel free to email us at hello@solvents.co.za and we'll gladly assist further. Thanks again for choosing us, and welcome aboard!
