EAU DE COLOGNE, a well-known perfume, prepared in many different ways. The recipe of Jean Maria Farina may be found in Ure's Dictionary of Arts, but it appears to be needlessly complicated. A good imitation of the genuine Eau de Cologne may be thus prepared: To one pint of very pure alcohol add the following ingredients: oils of bergamot, rosemary, and orange-peel, of each 1 drachm; cardamom seeds, 1 drachm; orange-flower water, 1 pint; and distil off one pint from a water bath.
