8 creative ways to use fragrance oil

Fragrance oils have many uses that many of us are not aware of. Here I will share with you 8 unique ways to use it, so let's get started:

Aromatic oils can be used to perfume

Aromatic oils in your home not only invite home fragrance, but you can customize it to your liking. Many people do not use perfume due to allergies; in this case, they can use perfume oil. Massage a small amount of essential oil on the pulse points of the body, such as wrists, neck, and ear lobes. If you want, you can mix a small amount of oil with an equal amount of water and use it on your hair. However, this essential oil has many uses.

Freshen up wax melts

If you enjoy melting wax, you know that wax loses its scent as it melts. But you can easily reuse unscented wax blocks. All you need to do to do this is take a candle and light it. When the wax melts in the heat of the fire, rub a few drops of essential oil with a toothpick. Only then can you reuse it. Using scented oils with beeswax will not only brighten up your room but also give off a lovely fragrance.

Use a Potpourri

A good way to add a wonderful scent to your home is with the right use of essential oils in potpourri. Mix herbs, dried flowers, and spices with a few drops of fragrance oil, keep it in a corner of the room, and enjoy the sweet smell. For various occasions like family gets together, an anniversary, Christmas, etc. Place potpourri in vases or decorative containers that will envelop your guests in a relaxing aroma.

Use Fabric Freshener

You can add your favorite fragrance oil to your decorative curtains, furniture, or bedding to add a fresh scent. Add 2-3 drops of perfume oil to a small amount of water in a spray bottle. Then, spray the furniture and wipe it with a clean, soft cloth. To fill your room with a fresh scent, lightly sprinkle water mixed with oil on curtains or bedding.

Note: Chemicals in perfume oils can damage fabrics, so don't use too much perfume oil.

Can use fragrance oils in bath salts

Bath Salts are a luxurious fragrance for bathing. It is available everywhere on the market, but due to its high cost, everyone can't use it. Add a few drops of perfume oil to the bath water and make bath salts for yourself. You can also make it by mixing 1/2 perfume oil with the liquid body wash you have in your bathroom.

Can Use Diffusers

You can use essential oils in an electric diffuser or an old-fashioned burner. It will create a nice, classic atmosphere around your home, which will give you a cozy feeling.

Soaked Cotton Balls

The use of cotton balls soaked in aromatic oil is increasing day by day. It is used everywhere, like the bathroom and cupboard drawers. To make it, make a small ball of clean, dry cotton, add a small amount of essential oil to it, and hang it where you will use it.

Use Room Sprays

DIY room sprays are a great way to quickly fill the bedroom with a fresh scent. Mix 2/3 drops of essential oil with water in a spray bottle and spritz around the room and on the linens, and you'll see the scent wafting through the room in no time.
