water would not work because oil doesn't dissolve in water. you could maybe use coconut oil, but spraying yourself with that would make you feel greasy. overall, i'd recommend just using vodka; it's not 100% natural but it's not any more processed than coconut oil or essential oils are, and humans have been making it for hundreds of years.
fantastic! I always wondered, now know...I always learn something from you Astar, since I've subscribed ! I do have a question though , have you heard of..... (I'm sure you have) of a tree or shrub called Bay Rum? ,I think they used to use it in making men's cologne way back in the day.. and something about it being popular amongst seamen? which kind of makes sense to me , I find a little reminiscent of Old Spice.....BUT ~~~oh so much better!! simular but completely Worlds Apart it's lovely, would you have any idea on how to incorporate this ..or use this by itself as a cologne maybe even like the original recipe (probably asking for too much now ) just seems like you guys are closer to Old English roots of recipes and such.. in any case, I for one" would be truly grateful... thank you so much Astar! sincerely, Kelsib Wells Austin,Texas*
KELSIB WELLS Hi Kelsib, thanks for your email. Coming soon is a recipe using Bay essential oil suitable for a man and it kind of smells like old spice only better. So very pleased I found my old Nans recipe book. I had know idea how clever she was. Cheers Astar
Hi i am trying to create my own to was wondering i have a favorite beard conditioner the smell i get from it is devine to me is there any way i can extract the scent or make it into a body mist
Hi Ely, where are you based? If I have this information, I'll do a search and try and track some down for you. Like you, I had a terrible job seeking it here in NZ. Warm regards Astar
I used a recipe online that calls for vegetable glycerin as a preservative. Do you recommend that? Also, why do you have to let it sit so long before using it?
@@AstarsPlace this is what Aveda says about the "Pure-Formance Grooming Clay" fragrance...: "The Aveda Men Pure-formance products feature a rich, spicy, refreshing aroma comprised of kunzea, citrus and certified organic essential oils of spearmint, vetiver and lavender." :)
This is awesome , thank you for your response. I actually got the Glycine orange water convo. I was wondering if that would benefit or harm it. Orange water is so lovely as well. Once again , thank you for replying.
Rudy Chavarria Hello again Ruby, I'm not sure about that ingredient!!! Maybe someone better informed might be able to help us both. Fingers crossed that help isn't far away. A lot of my concoctions have been hit and miss but I get there in the end. Astar
My goodness!! I love that room you’re in! So rustic and antique!
Thanks very much. I haven't used cologne or perfume because of the synthetic ingredients but I'm going to try your method.
lovely , i really want to learn that from you. i love fragrances.
Very inspirational. Keep up the grand work!
Does it have to sit for two to three weeks?
Would Isopropyl 99.9% be safe to use as the base?
I don't think that would be advisable. When I clean my car windows with this, I get a rash on my skin. But then again, it could just be me....
I want to keep it as natural as possible, could I substitute with water or coconut oil instead of alcohol?
Alcohol is natural
water would not work because oil doesn't dissolve in water. you could maybe use coconut oil, but spraying yourself with that would make you feel greasy. overall, i'd recommend just using vodka; it's not 100% natural but it's not any more processed than coconut oil or essential oils are, and humans have been making it for hundreds of years.
I'd love to ask how do you start making a business on it
Seems like a good investment
Vodka? Really? Well I know my mom has some of that. I bet my life on it
That's what I thought but it worked. Kind regards Astar
Question...can you use any type of spray bottle as long as its glass? I know the spray tube is plastic but will that still be ok? Thanks
So beautiful 💚💚💚💚💛💚💛💛💚
Hi thanks for this inspiring tutorial...Can I ask where you got the big bottle of perfumers alcohol from?!
Subscribing right now !
what does it smell like?
Would have poured alcohol from tray back into mixing cup back into funnel
fantastic!

I do have a question though ,

which kind of makes sense to me , I find a little reminiscent of Old Spice.....BUT ~~~oh so much better!!
simular but completely Worlds Apart it's lovely, would you have any idea on how to incorporate this ..or use this by itself as a cologne maybe even like the original recipe (probably asking for too much now ) just seems like you guys are closer to Old English roots of recipes and such.. in any case, I for one" would be truly grateful... thank you so much Astar!

Ummm 2-3 weeks?
Will pure nature ship to the USA?
Good video. Quick question, why did you add musk oil?
Starts off by pouring it everywhere, so basically all measurements are out the window immediately.
Richard Aldrich hahahahahahhaha
all of the materials im using i got from pure nature thats at New zealand pure nature NZ pure nature here in New Zealand
Smelt fine to me.
Note that I have the latest version of smell-o-vision though.
Hi i am trying to create my own to was wondering i have a favorite beard conditioner the smell i get from it is devine to me is there any way i can extract the scent or make it into a body mist
Please if you you have a answer for me would love to hear it
Yes, what does it smell like?
rose, lavander, and lemon
Does pure nature ship to the USA?
I am having a hard time finding a trusted source that sells pure musk essential oil, and not toxic fragrance oil or God knows what else.
Any ideas?

You can use it before but it develops the scent nicely like how wine ages
Ty
Have you developed your own line?
There used to be a great cologne called Cigar. It still exists but is rubbish. How do you get the tobacco aroma in a cologne, please?
amazing
What type of alcohol
Tbh, I just use high quality vodka. Hope this helps, Astar
anyone knows how to create a scent that comes close to the "Aveda Men Pure-Formance Grooming Clay" scent?
I too love that fragrance. I'll have a play around and see what I can come up.
@@AstarsPlace oh really? that would be so awesome! i want to make a diy beard balm.

Do you need a carrier oil?
Hi there Vana Vana, no need for carrier. According to everything I've been taught is mix is diluted sufficiently. Hope this helps, kind regards Astar
Done plij
Wow
Hello, great video!! Why do you use orange water ?
Rudy Chavarria Hello Ruby, I use the orange water because it's better than topping up with water plus it was in my Nana recipe. Love Astar
