    i dig on the oil, but i know someone who knows someone who makes it into a spray...ive been trying to get some with no luck...does anyone here make this? or know how to? or want to give me some at a small or no cost? :rolleyes:

    it's so cliche for a dirty dreaded hippie girl to reak of the patch, but i'm just so infatuated with the scent, i want to wrap myself in it!

    www.patchouligarden.com

    They have both patchouli and nag champa spray. I don't know the cost offhand, and I haven't actually used either, but I do know they make it.

    the thing about sprays, is that most of them contain alcohol, which evaporates quickly. i've always opted for the oils over the sprays myself. and mixing it with water would dilute it, which would weaken the smell, and make you use more of it.

    i've been trying to look some recipes up for you. i don't make them, but i do make a lot of body stuff, so i kind of know what direction to go...

    the eo + water spray would work as something cheap and easy. like he said, though, just make sure you shake it up every time you use it.

    i agree with you on the alcohol, i don't like it in the stuff i use either. i did find a couple recipes for you, but you said cheap or free and there's at least one ingredient in each of them that most people don't have lying around the house. but let me know if you want me to send you a recipe.

    if you are looking for a place to buy it from, this sounds like what you're looking for:
    http://www.indigowild.com/shopping/productdetail.cfm?ID=648&catPg=%2Fshopping%2Fzum%5Fmist%5Fbody%5Froom%5Fspray%2Ecfm

    ingredients: Purified water, pure essential oil, aloe and vegetable glycerin.

    eta: they don't ship to canada.

    you could try this place, they have BOTH and do ship to canada, and the price looks reasonable (and no alcohol!), but i've never heard of them.

    Herbs and Arts in Denver makes "Hippie Shower" which is EO patchouli tempered with their Earth blend.
    Diluted into water (it's a carrier just as alcohol is without being drying and in Colorado, you do NOT want drying.) and in a spray bottle. I'm sure they'd mail a vial of the oil to CA. Get your own water sprayer.

    Sus can comment on their mail service, I believe.

    Herbs and Arts has mailed me their Hippie Shower oil and spray to both Pennsylvania and Georgia...came very quickly. It's one of my favorite oils, and the one I use the most. I don't know about shipping to Canada, but they probably would.

    chance to make $$: yeah, John 'll go for it.
    only question is the cash translation: maybe using a charge card will fix that.
