How to Make Scented Body Spray


Making scented body sprays is pretty easy. This article will tell you how you can make body sprays from products at home you may already have. All women like to smell good and perfumes and body sprays can get expensive. Follow the steps below to make your own scented body spray. You will be able to determine which smell and strength you like best.

STEP 1

Make Clean Linen scent Body Spray. This body spray is my favorite. Make your clothes and body smell like fresh linen. Pour two tablespoons of Liquid Fabric softener into the empty spray bottle. Fill the remainder of the bottle up with warm tap water. Put the lid on the spray bottle and shake really well.

STEP 2

Make any body spray. You can either buy some strawberry scented oils, strawberry scented shampoo or conditioner. Pour a small amount of strawberry shampoo or oil into the spray bottle. Fill the rest up with water. Shake and spray to test the strawberry scented body spray.

STEP 3

Experiment with different scents. You can try to make coconut, pineapple, kiwi, green apple and many more fruity body sprays. Try using your favorite liquid detergent as Gain or Downey. Suavitel fabric softener smells really well as a body spray.

Tips & Warnings
  • You know what smells you like best, so experiment and have fun making your body smell good.
  • Spray the body spray on your clothes and not directly to the skin to avoid allergic reactions to the chemicals.
  • Liquid softeners are recommended. Laundry detergents that are powder, don't work as well.
  • Conditioners work better than shampoos because of the soap bubbles.

What Kind of Perfumes Should I Wear in Winter?

Winter perfumes, on the other hand, tend to be a bit heavier and evoke images of cool autumn and crisp winter days. Instead of remembering when you were lying on the beach, you think of taking a long walk through fallen leaves or snuggling in a warm coat.In the winter, most people wear more and heavier clothes. Unlike spring and summer, there’s not as much skin exposed. Perfumes worn in the winter should be able to overcome being mostly covered up with clothing, and that’s one reason the scents tend to be a bit stronger. The musk scent is a great example of a heavier scent more appropriate for winter than for summer.


Winter perfumes have scents that reflect the scents of the holidays and cold winter days also. For example, the scents may have a woody flair or remind the wearer of holiday desserts made with vanilla beans. Winter perfumes are usually sparsely worn so the scent is not overpowering. A winter perfume scent should be a subtle scent that makes the wearer think of sexy warmth.What kind of perfumes should I wear in winter? When you ask that question, the answer is to wear one that works distinctly for you. The same scent will produce a different result on each person. What smells good on one person may smell entirely different on your body. When choosing a winter perfume scent, select those scents which remind you of the season.
