I received my perfumer’s alcohol today to prepare hedione mix. However the data sheet MSDS of the perfumer’s alcohol sounds like a toxic product with which any contact should be avoided at all cost, including skin contact, with comments like “flush the area and consult a doctor”. I understand one should not drink the thing, but if the point of this product is to use it as a dilution base 1:3 for perfume making, and it is sold as perfume making alcohol, is it safe, or will I turn into a toxic pumpkin? Any thoughts from those who already used perfumer’s alcohol and did look at the MSDS?

You have used the stuff if you have used almost any spray phero from any maker - Its just SD-40 in its most concentrated form and reading MSDS sheets too intently will give you conniptions at the best of times.

Dilute it down to a suitable/practical percentage and you will be just fine.

Happy to hear it from a survivor (lol).

Ok, as soon as my hedione arrives, I’ll make that batch.
