Recreating Blends:
At some point in your profession, you will have a client come to you asking you to recreate a blend that they have experienced somewhere else. This is possible. All you have to know is what was in the blend to begin with. That's actually the hardest part. Usually, if they have bought it from an oil company, the company will have what is in the blend on record. From there, the order of ingredients is from the greatest amount to the smallest.
Aromatic signatures:
No two people can create an identical smelling blend, even though they may use the exact same oils and ratio. There are hundreds of oils, and the same essential oil can change from season to season. If a person comes to you with the idea of recreating a blend that someone else had made for them, it needs to be explained to the client that you may very well come close to creating the same scent, but it will not be exact. This is not a bad thing. The blend that you create will have your own energies surrounding it. You will have your own way of blending that will be different from anyone else. This is what will make your blends unique.
