Mackenzies smelling salts is popular and widely available in the UK.
They are quite out of fashion in the US.Hospitals use ammonia ampules. If you want to make some, find a bottle with a 1/2 inch diameter opening. Fill 1/2 with rock salt, like pickling salt or ice cream salt. Add 1 Tbl ammonia, alittle essential oil like lavendar or lemon verbena. stick a cotton ball on top. Close tightly and shake a bit. Keep tightly closed. When used, just wave back and forth under victims nose about 2 inches under nostrils. DO NOT shove bottle right up to nostrils or hold steady right under the nose.
If that's too much work, just keep some asofoetida in a bottle. It's smells bad enough to wake the dead and is a natural herb.
Hospitals use ammonia ampoules, and I have not seen any smelling salts commercially in the US since the 1950's.
