Distilled Water & Oils
Perfumes can be distilled by the use of a glass retort. A napkin wet with cold water should beplaced about the tube and a reciever placed upon the table. A lamp should be kept burning under the retort, removed far away to prevent the liqiud running. It should pass drop by drop into the reciever, and when inclined to run the lamp should be removed…
I remember making my own perfume-pink blossum flowers and water seal into a bottle and kept for days and I think it pretended to smell, well at first it did then the flowers went brownish.
Cinnamon Water: Powdered cinnamon 20 ounces, water 2 gallons: distill 1 gallon.
