SCENTING
Scenting your snuff does not always involve directly adding ingredients. Some scents can be transferred by simply leaving in a closed environment with your snuff. An example would be to put a cover over two separate containers one being your snuff and the other being your scenting material. In some cases (pun) you can hydrate a snuff with a fragrant humidity but it is not absolutely necessary your snuff be dry to be transferred a scent. Tonka beans, vanilla beans, mint species leaves, and various other things can also be put directly in your snuff box to add scent. Mixing in essential oils can be done with some scents. If using a combination it is best to mix the scents first before adding to snuff. The amounts used can vary widely and it would be wise to go one drop at a time. Scented oils which are not the same as essential oils may not be the best choice for mixing in directly and may be more suitable for the indirect method of scenting. The nice thing about making your own snuff is that you can choose your own natural ingredients for scenting. Or if you like you could try to make a snuff with the same scenting ingredients the big boys use. Like for Doppelaroma, it has ethyl acetate, triacetin, 3-methyl butyl acetate, iso amylvaleranat, and ethyl alcohol as aromatic agents. To be fair some of these ingredients do occur naturally but they just got them from the laboratory instead.
