Materials Needed
- 10 kg. weighing scale of kitchen scale
- Plastic cups
- Stirring rod
- Small beaker
- 1,000 ml beaker
- Volumetric flask with cover
- 70 g triple deodorized alcohol (TDOH) at about P200 per liter
- 15 g fragrance at P500 per 100 g
- 5 g muscol (MCL) at P400 per 100 g
- 5 g moisturizer (propylene glycol or PPG) at P250 per liter
- 5 g distilled water at P10 per 300 ml
How To Make the Perfume and Cologne

- Put all the raw materials - except the alcohol - in small plastic containers or beakers for weighing. The alcohol needs to be weighed last because it easily evaporates when exposed to air. For accuracy, all the ingredients must be weighed in grams. Accuracy is crucial, so make sure your scale is always set to zero before you take your measurements.
- When the materials are ready, pour MCL into the beaker containing the alcohol. To make sure that the container of MCL is thoroughly emptied of the MCL, rinse it with the weighed alcohol, mix the resulting solution with a stirring rod, then add the thoroughly mixed solution to the MCL in the beaker. Stir the contents of the beaker until the MCL is fully dispersed in the alcohol. (Take note that for MCL to disperse completely, it should be mixed first in alcohol. If you mix the MCL in water first, it will harden.)
- Add the PPG to the mixture and stir. Always stir each time you add another ingredient, and make sure to completely disperse the substance before adding another ingredient to the mixture.
- Finally, add the distilled water. To completely clean the empty container of the remainder of its contents, rinse it with water and add the resulting solution to the mixture in the beaker.
- Thoroughly mix all the ingredients in the beaker until the perfume solution becomes homogeneous, then get your bottles and fill them with the perfume. Label and package your perfumes as desired, based on where you intend to sell them.
How Much Will I Make
This formulation for 100 grams of perfume yields 12 to 13 roll-on bottles. Given this your production cost will be P110.42. You can mark up the production anywhere from 100 to 300 percent.

Hi! I’m interested in the perfume and cologne business. As beginner, where can I buy the cheapest raw materials and packaging for the perfume. Where can I attend a free seminar on the perfume and cologne business. Is it really worth venturing in said business. Is it easy to market the products. Can you refer me to a marketing company to market my products. Thank you and God bless.
