Formulator's Alcohol

[LBussy]

Not sure if this is a B&B thing so please move if not.

Where can one get formulator's alcohol? I've done some searches and most end up at a defunct website.

Do you mean perfumer's alcohol? If so, here is one source: http://www.saveonscents.com/product_info.php/products_id/3572

But not a lot of companies carry it cuz it's extremely flammable.

Rustic Esscentuals/Aroma Haven carry Formulator's Alcohol.

Awesome, thank you both.

it can't be much more flammable than Everclear can it?

 

[DeeAnna]

No, I don't suppose it is. But not too many suppliers carry Everclear either. :mrgreen:

Pretty sure you can buy it in the Supermarket here. I've definitely been in states where one cannot (especially the 190 proof).

I don;t know why I want to mess with the formulator's or perfumer's alcohol but I thought I might to say I had. It's for my own use so I could use Everclear easily.

I'm very happy to live in one of the states that sells Everclear 190-proof legally. I buy it from the grocery store. It makes the best dilutent, hands down. If I were ever going to sell, I'd use the formulator's alcohol, but I don't know how well I would like it with those extra additives in there. I'd use it in the stuff I was going to sell, but I'd still use Everclear for personal use.

In the UK apparently that's a possibility - not in the US Amazon site.
