A cheap form of Eau de Cologne may be made the following recipe:

  • 90 per cent spirit 1,000 ozs 
  • Bergamot oil 6 oz 
  • Lemon oil 15 oz 
  • Rosemary oil 1 oz

Eau de Cologne (La Deuxieme Qualite)
  • 6 gallons Spirit (from corn)
  • 2 oz Otto of orange peel
  • 2 oz Otto of lemon peel
  • 2 oz Otto of neroli, Petitgain
  • 2 oz Otto of neroli, Petale
  • 2 oz Otto of rosemary
  • 2 oz Otto of bergamot peel
Mix with agitation; then allow it to stand for a few days perfectly quiet, before bottling.

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 lemon
  • 10 drachms essence of neroli
  • 1 ounce essence of rosemary
  • 1 ounce essence of lavender
  • 14 drachms rose water
  • 13 drachms jasmin water
  • 15 drachms orange-flower water

Mix the whole together, let it stand 24 hours, and distill over a water-bath.



Piesse's Best Quality Cologne
Mix with agitation:

  • 3 ounces attar of neroli petals;
  • 1 ounce attar of neroli bigarade
  • 2 ounces attar of rosemary
  • 5 ounces attar of orange zest
  • 5 ounces attar of citron zest
  • 2 ounces attar of bergamot
  •  6 gallons 95 per cent, grape spirit

Let it stand perfectly quiet for a few days. 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.


Goufife's Eau de Cologne
  • 1/2 ounce each essence of lemon
  • 1/2 ounce each essence of  bergamot

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.

Georgian Cold Cream

Take:
  • 2 ounces of sweet oil of almonds
  • 3 drachms of white wax
  • 3 drachms of spermaceti
  • 2 ounces of rose-water
  • 1 drachm of oil of bergamot
  • 15 drops of oil of lavender
  • 15 drops of otto of roses
Melt the wax and spermaceti in the oil of almonds, by placing them together in a jar, which should be plunged into boiling water. Heat a mortar (which should, if possible, be marble) by pouring boiling water into it, and letting it remain there until the mortar is uniformly heated ; the water is to be poured away, and the mortar dried well. Pour the melted wax and spermaceti into the warm mortar, and add rose-water gradually, while the mixture is constantly stirred or whisked with an egg-whisp, until the whole is cold, and, when nearly finished, add the oils and otto of roses. In the absence of a mortar, a basin plunged into an other containing boiling water will answer the purpose.
