Cologne Dilution Rates

When making cologne, it’s crucial to understand the appropriate dilution rates to ensure the right concentration of essential oils and avoid skin irritation. Here are some recommended dilution rates for colognes:

  • Light strength (1-2%): 6-12 drops of essential oil per 1 oz. of base
  • Medium strength (3-4%): 18-24 drops of essential oil per 1 oz. of base
  • Strong strength (5-6%): 30-36 drops of essential oil per 1 oz. of base

How To Make Cologne With Essential Oils Example:

In this example, we will create a medium-strength, 1 oz. cologne using a blend of bergamot, lavender, and sandalwood essential oils.

1. Mix your base ingredients: combine 3/4 oz. of alcohol (such as vodka) with 1/4 oz. of distilled water in a glass container.

2. Add essential oils: combine 9 drops of bergamot, 7 drops of lavender, and 6 drops of sandalwood (22 drops total).

3. Stir gently to blend the essential oils and base ingredients.

4. Transfer the cologne to your choice of container: a glass spray bottle, rollerball, or dropper bottle. You can choose any container that’s convenient for you.

5. Allow the cologne to sit in a cool, dark place for at least two weeks to allow the scent to fully develop.

Congratulations! You have successfully created your very own cologne using essential oils.
