How to Make Solid Perfume Stocking Stuffers

These perfumes make the perfect stocking stuffer and a great addition to your craft market offerings!

These little perfumes are a snap to make and a great way to experiment with essential oil blends. You can either use one of the blends suggested below, or formulate your own concoction. Check out our essential oil guide for more ideas and inspiration!

These solid perfumes are made using clear, deodorized jojoba oil and white beeswax pastilles. Jojoba is a light, non-greasy oil that has a very long shelf-life, making it perfect for a perfume. Our white beeswax pastilles are deodorized, so they won’t interfere with your fragrance. You can substitute Natural Golden Beeswax Pastilles, if you like, giving your perfumes a faint honey aroma.

Whatever your choice for scenting your perfumes, the recipient of this thoughtful gift is sure to be happy. Nothing says Happy Holidays like a homemade gift for those you love.
