@greensnacks I was inspired by your lilac perfume post. Now I want to make some. How did it turn out?

@SpiritSkye that's so cool, I hope you try and even if you fail, is still fun.
And yes, I still have a pending update about that. So, I made it with gin instead of alcohol, (internet told me I can, and the gin would evaporate) but I can still smell it. It smells VERY sweet, I guess the Liliac released this smell(it wasn't like this before).
I left it a bit longer than I should've but some places say you can leave it "marinate" in the alcohol up to several months, so I'm not afraid about that. I aired out the jar couple of times, the gin smell decreased in intensity, but it's still there. I am afraid not to make myself a "drunk fool" perfume 😅😅😅 but I will read up a bit more these days and should come back to it see how can I further purify it and see if I can add some ingredients that would omit that smell.
I will post here an update once I do 😊😁
But yeah, it's cool that it has inspired you, I was inspired by others as well, neat😁
