Hi all,
I have a new favorite body spray/cream from Victoria's Secret, but I would like to make it into a nice long-lasting perfume.
I was thinking of mixing some of the body spray with some type of carrier oil. Would this work?
Thanks!

| I don't think it will work. I think you'd have to find a dupe fragrance oil and work from that. |

| I don't think it's possible. What scent are you looking for? |

You'll need to use real perfume, eau de parfum or eau de toilette if you want a long-lasting scent.
The concentration of perfume in body sprays and body lotions is low, hence the scent fades away quickly when applied to your body. Adding oils etc to a body spray will dilute the perfume even more and give a fainter scent, just the opposite of what you want.
I hope you find your favorite scent in a small perfume bottle.  |
