Q&A for How to Make Rosewater Perfume

Rosewater can be used for skincare, and has a very gentle rose scent. It is possible to use ready rosewater as perfume. The scent will wear off as the day goes on, so you may need to retouch a lot.

You have to experiment with different essential oils and scents until you find the notes that appeal the most to you. Do you prefer light citrusy notes, sweet floral notes, or deep woodsy ones? Smell is very subjective - what smells good to one person might smell horrid to the next. Also, you have to know what smells good on you. Body chemistry affects scents. Once you know what notes appeal to you, then you can begin to experiment with blends - a very tricky thing, that! That's why we pay Chanel the big bucks! Again, experiment and explore. Study the basic blends, but don't be afraid to mix it up a bit. Your nose knows best.
