Recipe: "Ooo la la" Eau de Toilette (Roll-On)

You will need:

Fragrance Blend (or experiment to create your own!):


10 ml (2 tsp)
Orchard Peach Natural Fragrance Oil
5 ml (1 tsp)
Lemon Essential Oil
1.25 ml (1/4 tsp)
Cinnamon Leaf Essential Oil
2.5 ml (1/2 tsp)
Rosewood (Renewable Source) Essential Oil
2.5 ml (1/2 tsp)
Amber Musk Natural Fragrance Oil

Base Solvent:
Jojoba Oil, Clear (Organic)

Container:
Roll On Bottle, 7 ml

Using a clean dropper for each scent, blend all of your scent options in a glass bottle. For best results, allow scents to marry overnight to allow the blend to develop. This allows you to tweak ratios before diluting the concentrated fragrance.

Make sure you keep detailed notes so that you are able to duplicate the blend at a future date. There is nothing more frustrating than achieving your perfect scent and then not being able to duplicate it. Once you have achieved the scent profile you prefer, it is time to dilute!


In most Eau de Toilette Fragrances, the scent is diluted at 5-10% of the base. For easy math, this translates to 3 ml fragrance blend to 27 ml jojoba oil to yield 1 oz of Perfume. Once you have diluted the fragrance blend and mixed it well to incorporate, it's time to package your masterpiece. We suggest convenient roll-on applicators for oil-based perfumes.
