My humble EO collection in a new outfit.
View attachment 61672
Classification according to the top/heart/base notes (or, rather, soprano/alto/bass notes, with a nod to
@Zing ), was easy, yet intriguing (literature work). But I've thought for quite some time how to store/present them in a sensible way (I'm tired of lifting each bottle every time and read its label – but I still want to keep the set mobile). I found these
clear T&S plastic boxes, and put the EO bottles in there, together with a coloured “label” for easy locating (sorry, synaesthets). If I stay modest (don't exceed the 20 mL bottle size), I might squeeze up to 14 bottles into each box.
Though, combinatorics tell me that, with the things I already have, one bass note, 1…3 heart notes, and 1…2 top notes, already make 3444 possibilities to compose blends – not to mention proportions
. That should keep my nose busy for awhile…
The three boxes fit perfectly into that tin. However, unless I (or someone else) come up with a more clever idea, I have to set it tilted to one side, so that the EO bottles don' tip over when not full. Probably easiest is to just buy more EOs and stuff the boxes
.
