    Default A mix made in heaven.

    I had a few near empty bottles so I decided to mix three that had similar base scents of citrus. I mixed 1/5 Mandom, 2/5 Penhaligons Blenheim Bouquet and 2/5 Old Spice Lime (vintage).

    Wow, what a scent. Just beautiful. We're now getting well into Spring where I am and the temperate is now around 25-28 degrees and this mixture is just perfect for that.

    Very cool!
    I have done what you did extensively when it comes to soaps and creams that are getting used up.
    Every mix unique, and always a performer at least on par with the products individually.
    I should try to do as you and mix a few of the ones that are close to empty!
    Thanks for the tip!

    You just need to be careful and watch what you mix. Cousin Zeke did exactly that. He mixed some aftershaves and some glycerine and a few other things from his home chemistry set and unwittingly concocted nitroglycerin. When he applied it and then went outside and someone slammed the door in his face, well....
