This homemade perfume can be used as a roll-on or in a spray bottle. There are two ways to make natural perfume, with alcohol or with a carrier oil. I’ve shared both methods below.
Homemade Perfume Roll-On Recipes
Recipe #1 – Alcohol Based Perfume Roll-On
This recipe takes 2-6 weeks to make (the longer it sits, the better the fragrance).
Ingredients:
- Organic vanilla bean
- Everclear or club190 Alcohol (94%+)
- Essential Oils
Instructions:
- Fill each rollon bottle 3⁄4 the way full of alcohol.
- Add 10-25 drops of essential oils of your choice.
- Use more if you would like a stronger perfume. I prefer it more subtle so I only use 10-12 drops.
Homemade Alcohol Based Perfume Roll-Ons
Ingredients
- Ingredients:
- 1 Organic Vanilla Bean
- Everclear or club190 Alcohol (94%+)
- Essential Oils
Instructions
- Cut the vanilla bean open and chop it up into pieces.
- Scoop the vanilla bean pieces into an 8 ounce glass bottle.
- Fill the bottle with everclear or club190 Alcohol (94%+).
- Secure the bottle with a lid and place it in a dark cool place.
- Shake the bottle up every 3-4 days.
- Smell the vanilla after 2 or more weeks. It’ll smell beautiful! You can make this perfume as soon as 2 weeks, but the longer the vanilla sits the better it’ll be.
- Strain the vanilla beans from the vanilla.
- Fill perfume bottle or rollon bottles with vanilla.
- Add 2 drops of essential oils for each tablespoon of finished vanilla perfume. Add more essential oil if you desire a stronger perfume.
My favorite essential oils to use in this recipe:
- Lavender
- Clary Sage
- Sandalwood
- Chamomile
- Peppermint (This combo smells like a candy cane!)

Recipe #2 – Oil Based Perfume Roll-On
This method is quicker than the alcohol based recipe. You must shake the bottle before each use to mix the essential oils with the carrier oil.
Ingredients:
- Liquid Carrier Oil (fractionated coconut oil, jojoba oil, almond oil or V6 all work well)
- Essential Oils
Instructions:
- Fill each rollon bottle 3⁄4 the way full of carrier oil.
- Add 10-25 drops of essential oils of your choice.
- Use more if you would like a stronger perfume. I prefer it more subtle so I only use 10-12 drops.
