Perfume Oils — FAQs
Learn more about natural perfume oils, how they differ from traditional perfume and the best way to wear them.
What is perfume oil? +
Perfume oil is fragrance blended into an oil base rather than alcohol. It is applied directly to the skin, usually on pulse points such as the wrists, neck and behind the ears.
BYRON BE natural perfume oils are handcrafted in Byron Bay with pure essential oils, botanical extracts and other plant-derived aromatic ingredients. The fragrance sits close to the skin and gradually evolves as you wear it.
What is the difference between perfume oil and spray perfume? +
The main difference is the fragrance base and the way the perfume is applied. Perfume oils use an oil base and are rolled directly onto the skin, while traditional spray perfumes commonly use alcohol to disperse fragrance into the air.
Perfume oils generally create a more personal, close-to-the-skin fragrance, while alcohol-based sprays usually offer greater projection. Natural perfume oils also develop gradually as they warm on the skin, allowing the botanical notes to evolve throughout wear.
How do I apply perfume oil? +
Apply perfume oil to pulse points such as the wrists, neck and behind the ears. These naturally warmer areas of the body allow the fragrance to unfold gradually.
Allow the perfume oil to settle naturally onto the skin rather than rubbing your wrists together. Natural perfume oils are beautifully subtle and can be reapplied throughout the day whenever you wish to refresh your fragrance.
How long does natural perfume oil last? +
The longevity of natural perfume oil varies depending on the botanical ingredients, fragrance concentration, your skin and how much is applied.
BYRON BE's CHAKRA perfume oils are intentionally light and subtle and may be refreshed throughout the day. Our Path of the Goddess oil-based extrait de parfums contain approximately 30% botanical fragrance concentration and provide a richer, more layered fragrance experience.
Natural fragrance is designed to evolve and soften on the skin, so reapplication is a normal part of wearing botanical perfume oil.
Do BYRON BE perfume oils contain alcohol or synthetic fragrance? +
No. BYRON BE perfume oils are 100% natural and alcohol-free and contain no synthetic fragrance. They are handcrafted with pure essential oils and other botanical aromatic ingredients in an oil base.
Our perfume oils are also vegan, cruelty-free and handmade in small batches in Byron Bay, Australia. Selected perfumes contain crystals and are Reiki-charged with intention, bringing an additional mindful element to the ritual of wearing fragrance.
As essential oils are naturally concentrated botanical ingredients, we recommend patch testing before use, particularly if you have sensitive skin or known sensitivities to essential oils.
