Basic Solid Perfume Recipe

Use a bain-marie or double-boiler if you have one. If not, simply put a small bowl into a saucepan that contains about 1 inch of water. Pour the almond oil and beeswax in the small bowl and turn on the stove top.

Let the wax melt, then remove it from the heat. Use a chopstick or other small utensil to stir the oil and beeswax and add the essential oils. Then pour the mixture into your small container.

Let it cool for 30 minutes then seal it.

If you can't make up your mind on the type of oils to use, feel free to read more on the benefits or particular aromatherapy essential oils.

I personally enjoy jasmine, vanilla and any type of citrus scented oil.
