Recipe for Perfume with Herbs

Basic Perfume and After Body Splash Recipe

Basic Perfume Recipe
This is the base for the 2nd recipe
Ingredients:
1 cup water
1 cup fresh chopped flower blossoms
Directions:
1. In a bowl place one cheese cloth where the edges are hanging over the bowl.
2. Fill with 1 cup of flower blossoms of your choice.
3. Pour water over the flowers until they are completely covered. Cover and let sit overnight.
4. The next day using the edges of cheesecloth pull it out of the bowl and gently squeeze the scented water into a small pot.
5. Simmer the water until about 1 teaspoon is left. Cool and place into a small bottle.
NOTE: Making perfume this way has a shelf life of about 1 month.
I recommend adding a little bit of alcohol or Witch Hazel as a perservative for the water and herb mixture. You can also add a 1/4 tsp of salt if you would like to keep the water neutralized.
Some suggestions for flowers: Lavender, Lilac, Orange Blossoms or even Honeysuckle.
Anything that is highly fragrant works best.

Angels can be perceived in many different ways. They are mostly reports as being seen as a physical manifestation of a winged being.  Angels are androgynous and can take form by manifesting as a male or a female.   Rather Watch The Video? Click Here ​ ​ S M L Two examples of physical manifestations of winged angels are from the Bible such as when an Angel appeared to the shepherds in the fields in Bethlehem announcing the birth of Jesus. An Angel came to The Virgin Mary and spoke to her explaining her immaculate conception. Angels can also manifest in the form of humans. An example of this was in The Bible-Genesis 18; Abraham was visited by three travelers that were actually Angels of the Lord. Angels also show themselves in the form of white or colored flashes of light.
