We used to make Spaish water!
I also used to make 'perfume' which looked very similar [brown & dirty looking] by putting rose petals in old pop bottles filled with water. l used to sell them door to door, [our poor neighbours!]
lt didn't have a name, but l hope Soft Mick would have been proud of me. Today l'd call it something catchy like 'Micky' [bit too much like 'Charlie',] or' ' Miss Micky', a lighter fragrance for a younger market.
