Guest guest Posted June 21, 2006 Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 Refreshing Summer Cologne - FormulaInspired by Better Basics for the Home, by Annie B. Bond (Three Rivers Press, 1999). Simple SolutionJust because artificial fragrances can be harmful to our health doesn’t mean we can’t still smell delicious without them. This cologne formula is light and very refreshing--just the thing for warm summer days--and it uses all-natural ingredients. Not only that, some of them are thought to be cheering, concentration-enhancing, and relaxing! Some of us like to keep this delightfully fresh cologne in the fridge for a cooling, uplifting spritz when we need one. Read the formula here: INGREDIENTS 1/2 part essential oil blend1 1/2 parts water8 parts vodka, rum, or brandy Essential Oil Blend 10 parts lemon essential oil10 parts rosemary essential oil5 parts lavender essential oil5 parts bergamot essential oil 1. Combine ingredients thoroughly, pour into a glass jar with a screw lid, and allow to sit for 3 to 6 weeks. 2. Decant finished cologne into a spritz bottle or a blue or amber glass bottle.Helpful HintsPlease be sure to use only pure essential oils. If you are pregnant, nursing, or have a serious health condition, consult a medical professional before using essential oils. Suzi What is a weed?
