You can find how to make any oil, bomb or potion and even parfume on this wiki. With exception of parfume any of those will create unknown potion/oil/bomb first time, but after you actualy use them once - they will be identified, you will get entry for the folmula and all.

Drink with drunkard in chapter one to get the book that have better sell price then formula for wife's tears in chapter II (those two drink contest exclude one another). Use info on this wiki to make one wife's tears potion prior, win, get book, drink potion - you get formula and you are sober and have a expensive and usefull book to read and then sell in chapter one.

Only stuff you can't make using formulas from this wiki before chapter 2 or 3 are those that require vermilion as there is only 2 of it in chapter 1 and must be bought from Abigail for 60 orens a piece.
