Formula for Reed Diffuser Perfume

To make reed diffuser perfume for sale, you can follow this general formula, building upon the advice previously given:

• Fragrance Oil: 25-30%
• Reed Diffuser Base: 70-75%

Here's a breakdown of the components and how to use them:

1. Fragrance Oil: Choose your desired scent. Examples include Strawberry Fragrance Oil, Jasmine Fragrance Oil, or Lavender Fragrance Oil. The concentration of 25-30% is a standard starting point, but you can adjust this based on the strength of the fragrance oil and the desired intensity of the scent.

2. Reed Diffuser Base (Type 2): This base helps dissolve the fragrance oil and allows it to travel up the reeds to disperse the scent into the air. Mix the fragrance oil directly into the Reed Diffuser Base (Type 2) according to the recommended ratio.

3. Dipropylene Glycol (DPG): As mentioned previously, Dipropylene Glycol can be used to adjust the rate of scent diffusion. It acts as a diluent and can help the fragrance evaporate more slowly, making the scent last longer. You can add a small amount of Dipropylene Glycol to your Reed Diffuser Base if you wish to slow down the diffusion rate. Start with a small percentage and test the diffusion.

Instructions:

• Measure the desired amounts of fragrance oil and Reed Diffuser Base (Type 2) based on your total batch size and the 25-30% fragrance ratio.
• Combine the fragrance oil and base in a container and stir gently until fully mixed.
• If using, add Dipropylene Glycol in small increments to the mixture and stir, testing the diffusion rate with reeds in a small sample.
• Pour the mixture into your diffuser bottles and insert the reeds.

It is recommended to make a small test batch first to ensure the scent strength and diffusion rate are to your liking before making larger quantities for sale.
