Is it safe to use this oil as a perfume? Is it necessary to dilute it before applying as a perfume?

It is my opinion and belief that essential oils are safe to wear and consume. Probably more so than some body lotions!

Sorry but the other answer is wrong. Not all essential oils are safe on skin or to consume. To use this like a perfume, mix with a little bit of another oil like coconut, jojoba or even olive oil. You can even make a solid perfume! Go on Pinterest to find lots of recipes. Hope this helps.

S. Tracy - I use it (about 5 drops to 1/2 ounce) of glycerin and jojoba oil as a moisturizer for my face. I always hesitate to use any of the citrus oils "straight" on my skin, but Neroli is derived from blossoms, so I think it would be safe without a carrier oil. It has a very pleasing fragrance - I wouldn't hesitate to use it in a diffuser.

That I am not sure of, but I would recommend diluting it if you are using it as a topical due to strength of oil. I would suggest researching it before using it. that way.

You can use it straight from the bottle but you may want to dilute it if you are putting the oil on your temples(if you have a headache) because the scent may be a bit strong for some people and it may feel warm. If you dilute, you can use coconut oil or olive oil.

Yes I have used it directly and I like mixing it with other oils or scents to add a little more ambery flair to my perfume sometimes.

Definitely not. I had a bottle of the original before, I would put 1 spray on and would be good for the entire day. With this 1 spray only gives you the aroma and its gone.

You may use fractionated coconut oil or just coconut oil to dilute any essential oil. If you post your question on google, you will find many websites addressing this, but here is one link that is helpful. http://www.everythingessential.me/Hints/CarrierOils.html

Yes, I use this beautiful fragrance directly on my skin and so do my daughters. We've also used it to scent massage oil, shampoo and conditioner, and bath salts too. Amber Romance is a heavenly scent!

The bottle says that it is for aromatherapy use, but doesn't say not to ingest it so I am not sure. I know there are recipes out there using essential oils and it's probably ok to use. Maybe you should check out NOW website or call their customer service to get their feedback.

This is a pure oil. You'll need to dilute it in a carrier before applying directly to your skin. Great price for it!

Since it's stated as being a fragrance oil and not an essential oil I would assume that it's not natural. But it does work straight out of the bottle as perfume. If you're going for natural though I suggest looking for pure essential oils.

As long as it has the indention on it for you to pour the fragrance in, if there is no indention, I would be hesitant to use it.

Yes it says on the bottle not to dilute it, just pour into spray bottle and use as usual.

When I used oil I only used a few drops. But I was using 100% lavender oil. So it got strong quick. So depending on the strength of the smell that you want and it also depends on what your making.

This oil is a pure essential oil. It is not diluted, make sure you do dilute it before using on skin.

I love vetiver and am looking for an oil to wear strictly for the scent. Would you recommend this for that use ?
