I will give you some tips about how to choose essential oils in this recipe and how to prepare your homemade perfume.

How to Choose Essential Oils

There are key thing when you are choosing your essential oils for your perfume. Every perfume has three notes: top note, middle note, and base note. Each of these notes have different fragrances and all three notes determine the overall fragrance of your perfume.

It is important to select the right essential oils for these notes. Sometimes, you may create amazing smells by combining the correct oils at correct ratio. Generally, you need to follow a certain ratio for these notes.

Top notes should correspond to 5-20% of the mixture. Middle note should have 50-80% and base notes should have 5-20% of the blend. This ratios can change based on the intensity of the essential oil you are using at each note.

Top note, sweet orange essential oil, bergamot essential oil, lemon essential oil, and grapefruit essential oil can be a good choice.

Middle note, marjoram essential oil, rosemary essential oil, or neroli essential oil can be selected.

Base note on the other hand, cedarwood essential oil, sandalwood essential oil, or bezoin essential oil will be good options. Base note should have stronger and more permanent scent. Depending on the essential oils you choose, you can create unique perfumes for yourself.

Some Important Notes

First, if you are using citrus essential oil as one of the notes in your perfume, there is this one thing you need to know. Citrus will make your skin sensitive for sun. So, if you will use citrus essential oil, you need to avoid sunlight. Also, it is advised to avoid sunlight for 12 hours if you apply citrus essential oil.

Another thing is if you have sensitive skin, you may want to test if you are allergic to essential oils. It is easy to make this test.

Before applying the roll on perfume on your wrists or other part of your body, apply this mixture to a small area. If there is no reaction, you can safely use this perfume. But, if there is any irritation or redness, you should not use this perfume. It may cause severe allergies.
