Blending Instructions
-
Blend the Top Notes: Start by combining Mandarin, Bergamot, and Lemon essences in a clean glass vial. Let them sit for a few hours to meld and develop.
-
Add the Heart Notes: After the top notes have settled, add Jasmine, Rose, and Ylang-Ylang. Allow the blend to mature for at least 24 hours for the floral notes to balance.
-
Incorporate the Base Notes: Add Patchouli, Amber, and Vanilla, stirring gently to integrate each layer.
-
Let it Mature: Seal the blend and allow it to mature for a minimum of 1-2 weeks in a cool, dark place to let the notes harmonize.
-
Dilute and Test: Dilute your blend with alcohol (typically around 70-80%) to make it wearable, and test to ensure it captures the essence of Devour Flora’s sophisticated, alluring character.
