- Please note that everything shown in this video is just what works best for me. There is no wrong or right way of doing things. I urge you to do your own research and testing.
Just a heads up, certain heavier or more complex FO's may appear cloudy at a higher fragrance load percentage. If you experience this, try a 2-3% fragrance load and it should appear more clear. Also, the base won’t play well with bakery scented. The odor attacking enzymes will think the bakery scent is an odor to eliminate.

You are always soooo graceful in the way you share your information. THANK YOU, Bree.
Thank YOU!
@@calafiacandleco Are these scents suitable for using on skin as in Fragrances? Thanks
You'll have to look at your fragrance oil supplier's product description on their website. They usually list if the fragrance oil is skin safe or not. @@ethimself5064
@@calafiacandleco I checked the supplier and Yes as in premixed. Thanks
Such a great video. I love making my own products for my small business, and I recently discovered glass stir rods which you’re such a lifesaver.
No product at all is wasted, and they can be reused over and over and are sterilized easily.
THANKS FOR THE INFO IF YOU READ THE COMMENTS YOU SEE SHE ANSWERED WHAT SIZE LABELS SHE USE!
I have this room spray base and I too LOVE it. I used to make mine just like your recipe from before, but ordered this from Midwest because of the odor-eliminating element. Thank you for sharing the new scent you just received too.
I’ve just started testing their room spray base & body mist and even after letting them sit for 2 weeks all I smell is the base in both ? I used the 5% fragrance load… do you know how I can fix this? Thanks
@@GG-xz7nv- I have never experienced what you are experiencing. For this base, I use Midwest fragrances - as well as, Makesy, Brambleberry, Morouge Canada and Crafter’s Choice - at 5% fragrance load. I am a shaker so I shake the base before mixing it with the FO, after mixing and then even before I spray it. What brand FO are you using?
@@BellaRayneJewelryCo I used Midwest’s FO and I shake them each time as well, so I’m not sure why the base smell is still so strong either, but I did read other reviews on the base saying they’re also smelling a strong scent from the base too, so I’m confused.
@@GG-xz7nv - after I responded to your comment, I went and sprayed more in the restroom on the shower curtain and I only smell the base for a few seconds and then the Black Sea fragrance comes through. I just asked our daughter too - she uses them and she is not experiencing a strong base smell. Keep me posted - I am going to keep a close eye out too.
@@BellaRayneJewelryCo Thanks for your feedback. I’ll have to try the Black Sea one. Seems that it’s just certain scents that don’t perform well with it. Others have also said more sweet gourmand bakery/food type scents didn’t work well for them because the odor eliminating ingredient, so I think it may also have something to do with the vanillin percentage in each FO as well as the ingredients each one is made from etc. More testing in my future lol, gotta love it.😅
Thank you so much for sharing! We're so happy to hear you liked these Christmas fragrances!
So good! Thanks for watching. :)
Thank you for this video, I made the mistake by accident and ordered base from another company, my fault I wasn’t paying attention I did follow your recipe and my room spray had an after smell of the base. So I just ordered the correct base and a scale from your Amazon page.
Oh that’s interesting about the after smell! I don’t notice any smells with this base. Thanks for the support! :)
I’ve just started testing the Midwest room spray base & body mist and even after letting them sit for 2 weeks all I smell is the base in both ? I used the 5% fragrance load… do you know how I can fix this? Thanks
I am obsessed with Northwood's Twisted Peppermint!!! ❤❤❤❤
As a chandler, I love ordering from other small businesses and wanted to test out your new recipe on room sprays (and I had to add the beautiful concrete candle as well.)
Oh! Was that you who placed an order earlier? That is so kind. Thank you! I will send it out first thing Monday morning. 🤍
@@calafiacandleco yes that was me 🥰
You’re amazing and not annoying at all lol!!! Thank you so much, really appreciate this info and can’t wait to try 😊
I use Northwood and mostly like!
You're an amazing human for sharing this! I seriously am in debt!
Aw thanks for watching!
Hi I m from PAKISTAN your video is very helpful thanks 👍
Relaxing even watching this. Should you rinse the beaker with the base to get as much of the fragrance oil as possible?
Thank you for this room spray recipe love it and it works amazing for me 🤗
Oh good, I'm so glad! Thank you!
Love the new intro! So much more your vibe❤
Thanks, Karissa! Felt like it was time for a change. 😊
Hi are u using fragrance oil to midwest water base? Do theg mix evern if its oil and water?
So I’ve tried your method. I bought 10 pounds of base and wow it’s amazing how much it takes to make 10 bottles. I was expecting with 10 pounds I’d make the 50 bottles I bought. Am I doing something wrong lol
Also could you do the calculation for a 2oz bottle
I’ve started testing the Midwest room spray & body mist base. Even after letting them both sit for 2 weeks all I smell is the base in both ? I used 5% fragrance load. How can I fix this? Thanks
Love your content and information, Thank you for sharing🙂
The 'base' w essential lil. Gee i needed a video & 25min of my time to figure thiz out.
Love this video! Do you find that using the fragrance oils from midwest work best or it doesn't matter?
I use Midwest oils in all but one of my scents, but I don’t think it matters!
@@calafiacandleco thank you for your reply! Be blessed 🙏🏽
Thanks for sharing your process. Do you allow them time to set up or”cure ” before they can be used or are they good to go right after you make the room spray?
I wanted to know this as well
I’m wondering as well because I’ve just started testing the Midwest room spray base & body mist and even after letting them sit for 2 weeks all I smell is the base in both ? I used the 5% fragrance load… do you know how I can fix this? Thanks
Hi! Love your videos! In your opinion do you sell a lot of room sprays? I am just getting started with those, but kind of want an idea on how big of a seller it is? Thanks!
THANK-YOU for sharing your knowledge! Does all of the above apply when using Essential Oils instead of Fragrance Oil?
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching. I’m not too sure, as I’ve never used essential oils for room sprays. I would think so though?
@@calafiacandleco OKAY, THANKS!
I was using your homemade with the polysorbate 20. Im just curious why you went to the premade base. What are rhe pros and cons in your expert opinion? Thank you so much for sharing AND your expertise. ♥️
I would say the pros are how quick and easy it is to use, the clear formula, that it’s also an odor eliminator, and I do find the scent to last longer. The cons would be that you go through it fast. One 16oz bottle of the base will only make four 4oz sprays, so you do have to bulk up on the base if you’re going to be making a lot.
Thank you
That's OK I understand. I am looking for a layout of how to label roomspay bottle not your designs. Thanks
Hi! I love this. Im using the same room spray base with about a 3% FL. I’m using a magnetic mixer too and for some reason after it sets, I’m seeing oil bubbles in the spray. Is there a reason for that?
I’ve just started testing their room spray base & body mist and even after letting them sit for 2 weeks all I smell is the base in both ? I used the 5% fragrance load… do you know how I can fix this? Thanks
Thank you for the video this was very helpful, also do you know the shelf life of the product once combined?
You’re so welcome! The manufacturer of the base states 6-12 month shelf life.
Thank you thank you I am so subscribed!
Please tell me about your Base !
Thank you for this!💕
Hello i see you didn’t use any preservative like Germall plus or polysobate how does it stay preserved ? Thank you.
Everything you need is already included in the base, including preservative. You just need to add the fragrance and that’s all! So easy.
Hello. I am new to this craft. How long after making them. Can you use them? I just bought the base and am waiting for it to arrive. So exciting!
I use mine immediately and have no issues
What would be the formula for 2 oz bottles ?
Hi there. You would just use the same idea but swap out the 4oz for 2. Convert to grams if you wish. So, if you choose to do 5% fragrance load, you would multiply .05 x 2oz to get the amount of fragrance you would need.
Just the information I needed all in one fairly short video. Thank you for this 🙏🏾
You're so welcome! Thanks for watching! 🙂
Hey, new subbie...I have a couple of questions. Is the preservative already added to the pre-mixed base? And how long does room sprays normally last after made 🤔?
Hello! Yes, you don't need to add anything to the base. That's a great question and I don't know that I have the best answer for that. I would say probably a year or so, as most fragrance oil companies will say their fragrance oils have a shelf life of about a year. I've also read that oils can stay good for two years or longer if stored in a dark, cool place.
Very nice
How to remove ethanol smell
Hello. I’m not quite sure what you mean. I don’t notice any smell.
How long do you notice that it lingers?
Thank you for the video! My question is about the spritzer bottles. The pumps on mine get stuck once you press the pump down . Have you had that problem and if so how did you fix it ?
Oh strange! I haven’t had that issue before. If you try to pull it back up does it just fall back down again?
I’m researching and trying to understand calculations. Ifra for the mango scent used shows 10% max but you used 5% correct? I hope I’m asking this correctly lol
Hello and thank you for the video, I will definitely try the pre base for my room sprays, I wanted to ask what size labels you use? I use 2.165 x1.678 from Avery .
Thank you for watching! My labels are 2.125" x 2.125".
Thank you for sharing!!
Thanks for watching!
About how many 4 oz bottles of spray do you get from the base?
With the 16oz base, you can get 4 sprays.
Hi Bree - I enjoy watching your videos - do you mind telling what camera you use?
Thanks so much! I have it linked in my Amazon storefront. I do love the quality of video it takes, but there are a few cons with it in my opinion. The battery dies rather quickly, and it also overheats after not too long of filming.
Did you have any issues with the base or the fragrance ruining furniture if it dripped on the furniture? I noticed my room spray with this base and fragrances from midwest fragrance takes the paint off my table. Am i doing something wrong?
How close are you spraying it to the table? I just do mists up in the air and let it lightly fall. I've never had any issues.
Thank you😁
Can you explain how you use Canva and Maestro? If you use Canva can’t you just print them without needed a label designer? Also, thanks for this informative video!
You need to use the label designer because it has the templates figured out for printing. If you just printed from Canva, they most likely won't be aligned correct with the labels on the sheet.
hola veo que tienes una nueva olla electrica la adaptaste o es de alguna marca soy de mexico y aqui todo es super caro gracias por compartir !!
Hello! Are you referring to the presto pot for melting wax? I've actually had it for quite some time now. I ordered it off of Amazon and my husband installed the spout by following a video tutorial from Standley Handcrafted.
@@calafiacandleco muchas gracias!
Nice! Quick question
What ways can I make the room sprays that neutral odors? I’m No longer interested in buying Febreze and all this other stuff. I just really wanna make it neutral, but neutralizing and still hold its fragrance in the air thank you so much.
Sorry for the late reply here! The room spray base shown in this video has an odor eliminating aspect. That's part of the reason why I love it so much!
@@calafiacandleco
Awww Ty and np you responded right on time Hv a great day!
Thanks for information so its 107.3 grams of base and add 5.7grams of fragrance oil to make one bottle
Sorry for the late reply here! That is correct. Of course the calculation will vary depending on what size bottle you’re using.
Hey there! Just stumbled across your video linked somewhere on doing room sprays. Is there a reason you use glass bottles over plastic?
Just preference! 😊
Hello
I was wondering where did you find the direction instructions to put on the back.
Hi Natasha, the FDA has the labeling guidelines
What about alchohol?
No alcohol needed with this base. I know some recipes where you make your own base require alcohol, but you do not need to add anything to this base.
Hi . , Do you think the room spray base runs out fast given how much you have to put in the bottles , vs if you were adding water
Hi there. Yes, you do go through it quite fast versus the old formula I would use featuring distilled water. I don't mind it though because it takes so much less time for me to make them now, and it's a lot easier. Time is money!
Hi, I have been making car diffusers using CS eco diffuser base. Curious if you know if that base that you are using could be used for diffusers/ car air fresheners?
I'm not sure. Sorry! I would ask Midwest.
You have to use a reed diffuser base. Midwest fragrance co has that as well. Fragrance load would be different as well.
Are these special fragrances or can I use the same fragrance that’s is used in candle making?
Nope you can use the same fragrances! That’s what I do. :)
Thank you for this video. May I ask what size labels are these? ❤
You're welcome! I use 2.125" x 2.125"
@@calafiacandleco Thanks 😀
if making room sprays for yourself at home, do u reuse the glass bottle for diff scent? if so, any suggestion how to get rid of the smell of the old scent from the glass bottle? thanks!
I personally haven't tried reusing the bottles. I'm wondering if pouring some rubbing alcohol in there and swirling it around and pouring out would help get rid of the previous scent.
I love the scent retention on this base. However, for me, the floor gets greasy when I spray it. Have you experienced this too?
Oh no! My house is all carpet so I haven’t noticed that
I’ve noticed this as well! Our vinyl ends up with a “grease spot” from the spray 😭
Do your labels bleed?
They do not bleed, but with the kraft paper if you rub them too much the lettering will start to fade. @@stanwong2856
Can these fragrance oils be used in candle making as well please
Yes they can!
Is this base all non-toxic?
How does that bottle spray out? I have a pre-made base but mine squirt out instead of misting.
Oh really? These spray a fine mist.
@@calafiacandlecosame problem with the squirting instead of misting
Hello new to your Channel do you use other fragrance companies with your new room spray base ? I wanna try the new room spray base but they are always sold out :)
I have! All the companies I have tried work great with this base. Sign up for the notification e-mail on their website for when they restock. That's what I always do. :)
@calafiacandleco awww thank you so much for replying your so kind 😊 ❤️
What is the percentage of the pre-mad base for room sprays.
Hi there. It depends on what fragrance load percentage you are wanting to use. For 5% fragrance, it would be 95% base.
what about a preservative ?
You don’t need to add anything to the base. It already has everything you need in it.
Sorry to bother you I am a candle maker, my question is can you email me template of the label for room spay and wax melts please.
Hi there, the label is something I spent time designing and creating myself, and therefore am not open to sharing. So sorry!
Hi! How do you convert bottle ml to grams? Or did you weigh your bottle?
I weigh out all of my ingredients by grams, so the 4oz is the total net weight of the ingredients.
@@calafiacandleco thank you for letting me know ❤️
What size of labels are you using?
These are 2.125" x 2.125"
Do you wash the bottles?
Hey there! I don't wash them, but I do wipe them down with a paper towel sprayed with alcohol.
What size are those labels
They are 2.125” x 2.125” from online labels
How is the base working for you?
I love it! I really love the odor eliminating aspect.
I just received this base today. Can’t wait to try it 😊
what size label do you use?
These are 2.125” x 2.125”
Hi Bree! I see on your ingredient list for the room spray, you list optiphen as an ingredient, which isn't an ingredient listed in Midwest's base. What percentage should that be? When did you add the optiphen? I re-watched the video but must be missing that part? Thanks Bree
Hey there! I don't add it. The ingredients listed are what is in the base from MWFC plus fragrance oil.
@@calafiacandleco Thanks Bree!
Is this spray safe around pets?:)
I wouldn’t recommend spraying it directly near pets, but yes you can use it in homes with pets. I do :)
