Have you ever tried to make your own perfume? It’s actually pretty easy. Of course, it takes a lot of trial and error to get the right combination. But you can make your own perfume oil for a fraction of what you would pay in a store. And you will have your own unique, personal fragrance.

Here are some tips:

1. Use a base that will not degrade quickly, so your scent does not spoil over time. Jojoba oil is the best base I’ve found. It’s actually a liquid wax. It’s odorless and has a bright yellow color. Sweet almond oil is also good. It won’t last quite as long as jojoba oil, but it is colorless and odorless.
