Description from the creator

Be your own perfumer!
Reagents and equipment: small spray bottle, 10mL unscented base oil (such as almond oil), orange zest, cinnamon sticks, anise, glitter.
Pour the base oil in a small spray bottle, add some orange zest, a cinnamon stick, a piece of anise, and glitter. Mix thoroughly.
As essential oils are soluble in fats, the oils in the orange zest, cinnamon, and anise dissolve in the base oil. The process of dissolving certain substances from a solution or dry mixture in a suitable solvent is called extraction. The previously-unscented oil now has a pleasant natural aroma. Their lightness and subtlety set them apart from alcohol-based fragrances. Experiment by adding whatever you want to the base – for instance, visit a spice shop or buy your favorite fruits.
Safety precautions: Do not eat! Do not ignite! Do not apply to clothing; the oils will leave greasy marks! Possible allergens.
