Body oils and perfume oils

Perfume oil and body oil: what is the difference?

A perfume oil is a concentrated scented oil. Our fragrance body oils are perfume oils made for the skin: alcohol-free, unlike a spray perfume or cologne, and sold as both body oil and burning oil.

Body oils: Questions

What are body oils?

Body oils are scented oils you wear on your skin. Ours are alcohol-free fragrance body oils, in over 100 scents from clean musks and sweet vanillas to warm ambers and florals. The same oils are also sold as burning oils for an oil burner.

What is the difference between body oil and perfume oil?

A perfume oil is a concentrated scented oil worn as a fragrance, and our fragrance body oils are used that way: alcohol-free and applied to the skin, unlike a spray perfume or cologne. Many come as roll-ons that are easy to carry, with larger bottles for home.

How do I wear a fragrance body oil?

Apply the oil directly to your skin. Our oils are highly concentrated and alcohol-free, so start with a small amount. Roll-on bottles in 1/3 oz and 1 oz sizes are easy to carry, and larger bottles suit home. Follow the directions on the bottle you buy.

How long does a body oil last?

Longevity varies by fragrance and by individual body chemistry. Our oils are highly concentrated and alcohol-free, and many customers find that fragrance oils last longer than traditional sprays. Try a small roll-on first to see how a scent wears on you.
