What is the strongest scent I can buy to mix with my 91% alcohol to make my own Lampe Berger oil and where can I buy it? I tried Walmart. I bought the cheep one. Then I bought the expensive one and it still does not have a smell that is strong enough.

My local pharmacy sells really nice essential oils (you have to ask and they are behind the counter. I used to get a peppermint one and it worked great to take a few sniffs right out of the bottle if I felt a headache coming on. That is the only thing I would ever use them for, but that is me.
I always caution people about making home made oil products for burners. I had a fire from one years ago and I just like to remind people that this is really a safety first tool.
While even the store bought ones can be dangerous, the home made versions can be even more so. Just be VERY CAREFUL and never let anything burn unattended.
Thanks for listening!

aura cacia is a great, strong, and not expensive brand of essential oils. Oils with strong scents are patchouli (not for everyone), frankincense, ylang ylang (very floral/cloying), orange, and of course lavender. Eucalyptus is also a nice and strong but very astringent smell.
