Aveda inspired scent, work with me?

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
So I've quiet using Aveda products for a few years now, but I still miss the orgasm inducing scents from their products. I've done a little internet research and I want to try and replicate some similar fragrances out of essential oils to perfume my own unscented shampoos, bath salts ect.

I'm hoping that I can work with some other people on getting some good recipes. Anyone interested in working with me on this one?

I've got a list of the starting notes, but will need to figure out the ratios. This week I picked up the essential oils needed from whole foods and am ready to start formulating.

I'm subbing to see what you come up with! I had a massage at an Aveda spa and couldn't quit sniffing myself all day. It was delicious!

the aveda hacks

Here's what I am working from which I found on the internet.

#1: Key Element Earth -- Notes: Peppermint, Lemon, Orange
#2: Key Element Water -- Notes: Rose, Geranium, Eucalyptus
#3: Key Element Fire -- Notes: Ylang Ylang, Jasmine, Rose
#4: Key Element Air -- Notes: Clove, Rose, Jasmine
#5: Key Element Infinity -- Notes: Petitgrain, Orange, Lemon
#6: Key Element Water/Air -- Notes: Ylang Ylang, Bergomot, Orange
#7: Key Element Air/Water -- Notes: Lime, Orange, Lemon
#9: Key Element Water/Air/Fire -- Notes: Patchouli, Sandalwood, Jasmine
#12: Key Element Earth -- Notes: Peppermint, Eucalyptus
#15: Key Element Water -- Notes: Clove, Anise, Fennel
#20: Key Element Fire -- Notes: Sandalwood, Ylang Ylang, Violet Leaves
#25: Key Element Infinity -- Notes: Lime, Lavender

#5 is like the scent used in the Brilliant line

#6 is like the scent used in Shampure

#7 -- smells a lot like the old Chakra III scent Equipose

Diffuser Oils/Candle Scents:

Euphoric = Key Element #4
Lavandou = Key Elements #3 + #15
Madagascar = Key Elements #5 + #25
Rainforest = Key Elements #9 + #15
Valencia = Key Elements #1 + #7

I'd like to start with figuring out the ratios with number six. I will start mixing a few drops of essential oils into an almond oil base. Anyone up for joining me and posting what ratios they found worked best?

After this one I would like to experiment with #2.
