Creating your own cologne can be a rewarding experience, allowing you to craft a scent that’s uniquely yours. If you’re interested in learning how to make cologne from fragrance oils, you’ve come to the right place. With a few simple steps, you can create a personalized fragrance that reflects your style. And with Hotel Collection’s premium fragrance oils, you’re guaranteed a high-quality base for your creation.

Step-by-Step Guide to Making Cologne

  • Gather Your Materials: To start, you’ll need fragrance oils, a carrier oil (such as jojoba or fractionated coconut oil), distilled water, and an empty spray bottle. Hotel Collection offers a range of high-quality fragrance oils that can serve as the foundation for your cologne.
  • Create Your Scent Blend: In a small mixing container, combine your chosen fragrance oils. A typical cologne recipe might include 10-15 drops of fragrance oil per ounce of carrier oil, but you can adjust this to suit your preferences. For a well-balanced scent, consider blending different notes like floral, woody, and citrus.
  • Mix the Ingredients: Once you’ve blended your fragrance oils, add carrier oil to the mixture. The carrier oil dilutes the fragrance, making it suitable for skin application. Combine 1-part fragrance oil blend with 2 parts carrier oil.
  • Add Distilled Water: To complete the cologne, add a splash of distilled water. This step helps to make the scent lighter and more wearable. Typically, you’ll use about 10-15% water in your mixture. Shake the bottle well to guarantee all fixings are completely combined.
  • Let It Age: For the best results, let your cologne blend sit for at least 48 hours, preferably up to two weeks. This aging process allows the scents to meld together and develop a more refined fragrance. Store your cologne in a cool, dark place during this time.

Final Touches and Application

Once your cologne has aged, it’s ready to use. Exchange the blend into a splash bottle for simple application. Hotel Collection’s fragrance oils ensure a long-lasting and rich scent experience. When applying, spray a small amount on pulse points like your wrists and neck for the best results.

Learning how to make cologne from fragrance oils is a fun and creative way to personalize your scent. By using high-quality products from Hotel Collection, you can create a sophisticated and unique fragrance that stands out
