A great many forms for the manufacture of Eau de Cologne have been published, the authors of some of the recipes evidently having no knowledge, in a practical sense, of what they were putting by theory on paper; other venturers, to show their lore, have searched out all the aromatics of Lindley's Botany, and would persuade us to use absinthe, hyssop, anise, juniper, marjoram, caraway, fennel, cumin, cardamom, cinnamon, nutmeg, serpolet, angelica, cloves, lavender, camphor, balm, peppermint, galanga, lemon thyme,etc



Durokereau's Eau de Cologne
To 7 quarts French tasteless alcohol, add:

• 11 drachms essence of Portugal
• 13 drachms essence of bergamot

• 1 ounce essence of rosemary
• 1 ounce essence of lavender

Piesse's Best Quality Cologne
Mix with agitation:

Although very fine eau de Cologne is often made by merely mixing the ingredients, it is better first to mix all the citrine attars with spirit, then distill the mixture, and afterwards add the rosemary and nerolies. This method is adopted by the most popular house in Cologne.

Essence of Cologne; Cologne-Essence ; Concentrated Eau de Cologne. 

This is prepared from the same odorous ingredients as " Eau de Cologne," but taking 7 or 8 times the quantity, and using alcohol or the strongest rectified spirit, without which a permanent solution of the whole of them cannot be formed. Used as a condensed and convenient substitute for ordinary "Eau de Cologne " by travelers, being less bulky. It is also kept in stock by druggists and perfumers, to enable them to prepare that article extemporaneously, by simply diluting it with 8 times its bulk of spirit of the appropriate strength.

• 30 fluid ozs tincture of heliotropine 
• 6 fluid ozs opoponax perfume 
• 1/2 fluid dr extract of ambergris 

Method: Mix and tinge with heliotropine color. The simple extracts enumerated had better be bought in bulk, though it would be cheaper to produce the tinctures where synthetic substances are named.

When desired, the perfumes may be diluted with distilled water, but too much must not be added, or cloudiness will ensue.

For the coloring a small quantity of the required aniline is dissolved in spirit, and kept in a bottle as required for use. This is added to the perfume drop by drop.
