How to Make Scented Sachets

These sachets are the perfect for cars, drawers, gym bags, lockers, or vacuum cleaners. Place them in a sunny window or near vents for an even stronger scent release.

They are SUPER EASY to make, as easy as 1, 2, 3 in fact and they make a great gift as well!

Our Potpourri & Sachet Unscented Fixative Base absorbs and holds the scent of the fragrance oil and will retain scent better than potpourri alone. 100% natural, plant-based, non toxic & biodegradable.
