Toilet Rouges

Blue saucers and pink saucers contain the most beautiful tints of these colors

 

Are prepared of different shades by mixing fine carmine with talc powder, in different proportions, say, one drachm of carmine to two ounces of talc, or one of carmine to three of talc, and so on. These
rouges are sold in powder, and also in cake or china pots; for the latter the rouge is mixed with a minute portion of solution of gum tragacanth.

M. Titard prepares a great variety of rouges. In some instances the coloring-matter of the cochineal is spread upon thick paper and dried very gradually; it then assumes a beautiful green tint. This curious optical effect is also observed in "pink saucers." What is known as Chinese book rouge is evidently made in the same way, and has been imported into this country for many years.

When the bronze green cards are moistened with a piece of damp cotton wool, and applied to the lips or cheeks, the color assumes a beautiful rosy hue. Common sorts of rouge, called "theatre rouge," are made from the Brazil-wood lake; another kind is derived from the safflower (Carthamus tinctorius); from this plant also is made:

PINK SAUCERS.

The safflower is washed in water until the yellow coloring-matter is removed; the carthamine or color principle is then dissolved out by a weak solution of carbonate of soda; the coloring is then precipitated into the saucers by the addition of sulphuric acid to the solution.

Cotton wool and crepe being colored in the same way are used for the same purpose, the former being sold as Spanish wool, the latter as Crepon rouge.

Various Ambergris Formulas

Top notes: orange blossom, reseda

MIddle notes: rose, orris, jasmine, geranium

Base notes: ambergris, civet, musk, vanilla, tonka bean, benzoin, styrax, patchouli, ambrette, tolu balsam

Essence of Ambergris:

Take:

• 1/4 ounce Ambergris
• 1/4 ounce Sugar Candy
• 1/2 drachm  Musk
• 2 grains Civet

Rub them together, and put the mixture into a Phial : pour upon it a quarter of a pint of tartarifed Spirit of Wine, tightly stopper the Phial, which set in a gentle sand heat for four or five days, and then decant the clear Tincture for use. This makes the best of perfumes; the least touch of it leaves its scent upon any thing a great time; and in constitutions where such sweets are not offensive to the head, nothing can be a more immediate Cordial.

Huile a l'Ambre:

Oil of Ambergris; Huile d'Ambergris, or Huile a` l'Ambre Parfum. 

Take:

• 4 to 6 drachms finest ambergris
• 1 pint oil (almond, olive, or ben "moringa")

Proceed by infusion.A second quality is made by working the residuum with 1/2 pint of fresh oil.


Concentrated Tincture of Ambergris:

Essence of Ambergris; or Concentrated Tincture of Ambergris. 

Take:

• 10 drachms 95 per cent, ambergris 
• 1 pint rectified spirit

Put them into a strong bottle or tin can, secure the mouth perfectly and very firmly, and keep the vessel in a room exposed to the heat of the sun, or equally warm, for a month or two, observing to briskly agitate it daily during the whole time. Lastly, after repose, decant the clear portion, and, if necessary, filter it rapidly through soft blotting paper. 

Very fine. It forms the strongest and finest simple essence of ambergris of the Paris houses,  The common practice in making the essence is to cut the ambergris up small before digesting it; but a much better plan is to rub down both the ambergris and musk with a little powdered glass, clean silicious sand, or dry lump-sugar, observing afterwards to rinse the mortar out well two or three times, with portions of the spirit, so that nothing may be lost.

 A second quality may be made by employing half the quantity of ambergris to the same amount of spirit.

Essence of Ambergris:

• 10 drachms Ambergris
• 3 drachms grain musk (Tonquin or Chinese pure)
• 1 quart rectified spirit

Proceed as in the last receipt. The products of the above two receipts form a delightful perfume highly esteemed in the fashionable world. A very small quantity of any one of them added to eau de Cologne, lavender-water, tooth-powder, hair-powder, pomades, wash-balls, etc., communicates a delicious fragrance. 

A few drops added to sweet-scented spirits, liqueurs, wines, etc., improve their flavor and aroma. 1 or 11/2 fluid drachms added to a hogshead of claret, imparts a flavor and bouquet to the wine which is regarded by many as delicious.

Extrait d'Ambre:

• 1/2 pint Esprit de rose triple
• 1 pint Extract of ambergris
• 1/4 pint Essence of musk
• 2 oz Extract of vanilla

This perfume has such a lasting odor, that a handkerchief being well perfumed with it, will still retain an odor even after it has been washed.

The fact is, that both musk and ambergris contain a substance which clings pertinaciously to woven fabrics, and not being soluble in weak alkaline lyes, is still found upon the material after passing through the lavatory ordeal.

Powdered ambergris is used in the manufacture of cassolettes—little ivory or bone boxes perforated—which are made to contain a paste of strong-smelling substances, to carry in the pocket or reticule; also in the making of peau d'Espagne, or Spanish skin, used for perfuming writing paper and envelopes, and which will be described hereafter.


Tincture of Ambergris.

Powder thoroughly 1 ounce ambergris and 1/2 ounce sugar in a warm mortar; then dissolve 1/2 ounce carbonate of potash in 14 ounces alcoholate of roses, and add to it 31/2 ounces tincture of musk; macerate the whole for about 1 month, and filter.

To Clean Kid Gloves

Make a solution of one quart of distilled benzine with one-fourth of an ounce of carbonate of ammonia, one-fourth of an ounce of fluid chloroform, one-fourth of an ounce of sulphuric ether. Pour a small quantity into a saucer, put on the gloves, and wash, as if washing the hands, changing the solution until the gloves are clean. Rub them clean and as dry as possible with a clean dry cloth, and take them off and hang them where there is a good current of air to dry. This solution is also excellent for cleaning ribbons, silks, etc., and is perfectly harmless to the most delicate tints. Do not get near the fire when using, as the benzine is very inflammable.

Washing the gloves in turpentine, the same as above, is also a good means of cleaning them.

Lip Salves and Rouges

German Lip Salve:

Butter of cacao, 1/2 ounce; oil of almonds, 1/4 ounce; melt together with a gentle heat, and add 6 drops essence of lemon.

French Lip Salve:

Mix together 16 ounces lard, 2 ounces white wax, nitre and alum in fine powder, of each, 1/2 ounce; alkanet to color.

Glycerine Lip Salve:

This is prepared by adding 1/6 to 1/8 part of glycerine to any one of the above whilst in the melted state, and stirring the mixture assiduously until it begins to cool.

White Lip Salve:

Take 1/2 pound spermaceti ointment, liquify it by the heat of warm water, and stir in 1/2 drachm neroli or essence de petitgrain as before.

White Lip Salve #2:

• 1/4 lb Almond oil
• 1 oz Wax
• 1 oz Spermaceti
• 1/2 drachm Otto of almonds
• 1/4 drachm Otto of geranium

After lip salve is poured into the pots and got cold, a red-hot iron must be held over them for a minute or so, in order that the heat radiated from the irons may melt the surface of the salve and give it an even face.

Peruvian Red Lip Salve:

Take:

• 1/2 pound spermaceti ointment
• 3 or 4 drachms alkanet root

Digest, at a gentle heat, until the first has acquired a rich deep red color, then pass it through a coarse strainer.

Lastly, before it cools, pour it into the pots or boxes. The product forms the finest and most esteemed Up salve. 2 or 3 drops of essence of ambergris, or of essence royale, improve and vary it.

Rose Lip Salve:

As the above, but using only 1 1/2 drachms balsam of Peru, and replacing the oil of cloves with a few drops of attar of roses, or sufficient to give the mixture a marked odor of roses. Some makers omit the balsam altogether. If uncol-ored, it forms white rose lip salve.

• 2 oz Spermaceti and wax
• 2 oz Alkanet root
• 1/4 drachm Otto of roses

Place the wax, sperm, and oil on to the alkanet root in a vessel heated by steam or water-bath; after the materials are melted, they must digest on the alkanet to extract its color for at least four or five hours; finally, strain through fine muslin, then add the perfume just before it cools.

Common Lip Salve:

Is made simply of equal parts of lard and suet, colored with alkanet root, and perfumed with an ounce of bergamot to every pound of salve.

Eastern Essence

• 3 oz patchouly extract
• 1 oz verbena extract

Mix together.

Coffee Flowers Extract

Also known as Fleurs du Cafeyer d'Arabie.

• 1 oz cassie essence
• 1 oz tuberose essence
• 1 oz rose spirit
• fifty grains of freshly roasted coffee (bruised)
• 2 oz deodorized alcohol

Digest the coffee with the alcohol for two days, filter, adding sufficient alcohol to make the resulting tincture measure two fluid ounces; then add to it the other ingredients.

Coffee flowers give excellent perfume reminiscent of jasmine, cassia and mimosa. The resemblance between name and odor is probably as imaginary here as in the case above. The extract is peculiar, but, save as a novelty, received but little attention.
