can someone please tell me what ratio you would blend these two EOs. Im thinking 2 parts rosemary to 1 part peppermint. But I've never done this before.

A fun way to determine mix is to use q tips and drip by drop fro onto the tip. Set the tip into a jar and in two days or so see if you like the mix (waiting melds the fragrance together to mello it out). Peppermint is very strong so use at 1/2 that of other Essential oils, in my mixing experience.

So I like Rosemary vanilla mint at 2 drop rosemary 1 drop mint and 1 drop vanilla. After your experimentation make what you like and convert to ounces; 2 ounces rosemary 1 ounce mint (I'd probably do 1/2 ounce) and 1 ounce of vanilla. Or try 3 rosemary 2 vanilla and 1 mint. Be sure to write down a note and attach to the bottle so you know what you were testing and know how to duplicate it if you like the mix! Very IMPORTANT! :lol:

By starting out small and experimenting you save your supplies for something you truly enjoy the fragrance of. HTH

I've done it the other way around. I would try the q-tips and see how you like it first.

I like full on peppermint buy itself. :) I wouldn't have thought to add vanilla to the mix, thanks Mella. I'll have to try your blend.

I did a 2/1 spearmint/rosemary last night (okay, reeeaaaallly early this morning). I'm happy with the fragrance. I'll post pictures when I get it unmolded.

I did 2 lemon, 1 peppermint, 1 rosemary, and it worked--but it was much more mint than either lemon or rosemary (this was in a balm, not CP). So sometimes, ya get surprised!
