Homemade mens cologne in 10ml roller bottle. with dried lemon and cinnamon stick

I love using my essential oils to make perfume for myself and decided it was time to make cologne for my husband.  I was hesitant at first to do this because I was worried it wouldn’t smell “manly” enough.

Now, several essential oils actually have a wonderful woodsy scent, and pairing them with a spice and citrus essential oil smelled amazing.  When my husband tried it, he liked it too.

To make this, you will need an empty roller bottle, fractionated coconut oil, and essential oils.
