What are the Best Essential Oil Combinations for Perfume? by Loving Essential Oils

From floral to woodsy and musky, essential oils offer a variety of fragrances that you can use to create your own signature scent. Not only are essential oils pleasing to the senses, but many of them come with health benefits as well. Here are some of the best essential oil combinations for perfume blends.

Let's first take a look at what essential oils are.

What are Essential Oils?

Essential oils are concentrated extracts derived from various parts of plants such as leaves, flowers, stems, bark, and roots. Each oil has its own distinct aroma and healing properties.

The most popular essential oils include lavender, eucalyptus, peppermint, tea tree, rosemary, and lemon. These can be used in various ways including aromatherapy diffusers, massage oils or added to bathwater as well as in homemade DIY beauty products such as facial masks and perfumes.

Roller Bottles for Perfume Blends:

Roller bottles are perfect for making essential oil roll on perfume. These are glass bottles that have a roller top on them that are great for using essential oils topically.

You can dilute your essential oil or blend with the carrier oil of your choice and have it ready for use when using these bottles. Then just roll the perfume blend on to pulse points like the neck and wrists.

The best sized roller bottles that I like to use are 10 ml, usually with colored glass like, amber or blue. You can use clear bottles too but must ensure that these bottles are not exposed to light, otherwise the essential oils will degrade.

Blending Aromatherapy for the Perfect Perfume

If you’re looking to make a custom perfume, aromatherapy could be the perfect way to make it unique and special. Blending essential oils is a great way to create a scent that’s just right for you or someone special. But with all of the available essential oils, how do you know which ones will work together?

Let’s explore some of the best aromatherapy combinations to use when making your own custom perfume.

The Basics of Blending Aromatherapy Oils

When blending aromatherapy oils, there are three categories of scents that can be used – top notes, middle notes, and base notes.

Top Notes

Top notes are designed to be strong and short-lived; they quickly evaporate but have a strong impact on the overall aroma of your blend. Some popular top note options include lemon, bergamot, grapefruit, orange, tea tree, and eucalyptus.

Middle Notes

Middle notes are considered the heart of your blend; they provide an underlying support for your other scents and help them last longer throughout the day. Popular middle note choices include lavender, rosemary, geranium, chamomile, ylang-ylang and jasmine.

Base Notes

Finally, base notes provide depth and longevity to your blend; they will linger throughout your day as top notes fade out after just a few hours on your skin. Base note suggestions include patchouli, sandalwood, cedarwood and vetiver.

Essential Oil Blending by Perfume Notes

Blending by notes is another way in which we can blend essential oils. In note theory, oils are separated into base, middle, and top notes. This is generally based off of their volatility.

A blend, according to note theory, will consist of the following:

20-30% of blend in top notes
40-80% of the blend in middle notes
10-25% of the blend in base notes

Tips for Essential Oil Perfume Combinations

When creating your own custom perfume with aromatherapy blends it is important to keep in mind that not all essential oils will mix well together; some may overpower one another while others can cause irritation when applied directly to the skin.

To ensure compatibility between essential oils it is recommended that complementary combinations be used such as citrus and floral or woody and herbaceous scents.

Additionally, adding carrier oil such as jojoba or almond oil can help balance out any harshness in certain combinations while still allowing you to experience the full benefits of each oil.

Finally it is important to remember that everyone's body chemistry is unique so what smells amazing on one person may not have the same effect on another person – so feel free to experiment with different combinations until you find something perfect for you!

When creating your own custom perfume using aromatherapy blends there are many factors to consider such as scent type (top/middle/base), complementary pairings between essential oils and adding carrier oil if needed for dilution purposes. Taking these things into account will allow you create an aromatic masterpiece that fits perfectly with who you are!

Final Thoughts on Essential Oil Blends for Perfume

Creating your own custom scent with essential oils is fun way to express yourself while also reaping all of the benefits that come with aromatherapy!

With so many scents available it can be overwhelming trying to decide which ones will work best together but these tried-and-true essential oil combinations listed here should get you started on making the perfect signature scent.

Be sure to use caution when experimenting with any new aromas – remember that less is more when it comes to using essential oils. With this knowledge in hand why not grab yourself some essential oils today and start blending away.

With practice you'll soon become an aromatherapy expert - so get started now! Happy blending!
