Gentle Perfume Oil
Discover the DIY sensory wellness trend with alcohol-free perfume oils and soft botanical scents made for sensitive noses and low-fragrance living.
Equipment
- Carrier Oil (your base – choose one): Jojoba oil (closest to skin’s natural oils, my top pick), Sweet almond oil, Fractionated coconut oil (liquid, odorless)
- Scent (pick ONE to start): Vanilla oleoresin or vanilla-infused oil (great for sensitive noses), Lavender (calming, gentle), Sweet orange or bergamot (soft citrus, uplifting), but this can be any essential oil scent you want to try.
- Supplies: 10 ml roller bottle or small glass dropper bottle, dropper
Instructions
- For a 10 ml bottle: add 9.5 ml of carrier oil & 5 to 10 drops of essential oil
- Start with 5 drops if you’re sensitive. You can always add more later.
- Add essential oil first
- Drop 5–10 drops of your chosen essential oil into the empty bottle.
- Fill with carrier oil
- Pour your carrier oil in slowly, leaving a tiny bit of space at the top.
- Cap and gently roll
- Close the bottle and gently roll it between your hands to mix.
- (No shaking — we’re being kind to the oils.)
Notes
Rest the blend
Let it sit for 24–48 hours before wearing. Scents soften and blend as they rest.
