Genius Hour: Introduction

Hello my name is Inaiya I am 13 years old and welcome to my blog. I live in edmonton and I am in grade 8. I am a cancer but I have been told I have more scorpio traits. I enjoy playing volleyball and basketball for fun. My grandmother was always a big cook which influenced me as I enjoy experimenting in the kitchen.

For my first project I have decided to make my own perfume. I am going to try to do around 3 or 4 scents (maybe 2 if it is trickier). I’m going to try a herb scent which will probably be lavender, a citrus scent like orange, grapefruit or lemon ect. And also a floral scent like rose petals or japenese cherry blossoms ect. I am also going to try 2 ways to make them. With an oil base by finding a carrier oil as well as a base note a middle note and a top note (which are basically 3 scents to achive the overall scent). This sounds kind of confusing but I will explain later on how to do it. I am going to try this one first as it is easier because you don’t need to extract your own scent. The next one I’m going to try is a steam base which is boiling the fruit or herb or flower and grabbing the steam and letting it turn into water vapor. Also if I have time I will mix them together by boiling 2 things at a time. I hope this gave some info about my project and tune in every week for an update.

Thank you.
