The cool breezes return, as does the rain here in the Willamette Valley. The days grow shorter, and leaves put their vibrant yellows, oranges, and reds on display. Autumn is fleeting, and finding beauty and respite in this ephemeral time of year can help us transition smoothly into cooler weather. I created these three essential oil blends based on my own memories and impressions in the fall, and I hope you find them as uplifting and aromatically inspiring as I do! I used [organic fractionated coconut MCT oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/fractionated-coconut-mct-oil/profile) for these roll-on recipes due to its neutral scent and ability to absorb quickly into skin without the oily residue. If MCT is not your thing, any favorite carrier oil will do! [Almond oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/almond-sweet-oil/profile), [organic argan oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/argan-oil/profile), [organic chia seed oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/chia-seed-oil/profile), [organic camellia seed oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/camellia-seed-oil/profile), [organic jojoba oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/jojoba-oil/profile), and [organic sacha inchi oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/sacha-inchi-oil/profile) are all great for the skin, though some may add their own unique scents to a blend. ## Sugar and Spice Blend - 3 drops [Peru balsam essential oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/peru-balsam-essential-oil/profile) - 3 drops [organic pink pepper essential oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/pink-pepper-essential-oil/profile) - 2 drops [organic lemon essential oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/lemon-essential-oil/profile) - 1 drop [organic clove essential oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/clove-bud-essential-oil/profile) - 6 drops[ vitamin E oil (option for fresh herbs*)](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/vitamin-e-oil/profile) - 1 oz. [carrier oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/catalog/ingredients/carrier-oils) This blend is sweet and slightly spiced, and it’s also my favorite out of the three! Peru balsam is a thicker oil, though it’s steam-distilled and blends well into the carrier. It smells like rich and earthy vanilla, which I absolutely love in perfume blends, and this is a wonderful alternative to vanilla absolute! The dark color of Peru balsam essential oil turned my blend a light brown, and you may see a few light brown flecks, which is totally normal for Peru balsam. ***Pro Tip**: At 9 drops, this blend is a 1.5% dilution when mixed with 1 oz. of carrier oil and a 1% dilution of vitamin E oil as a preservative. This is only necessary when using fresh herbs. ## Classic Fall Spices Blend - 3 drops [organic cardamom essential oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/cardamom-essential-oil/profile) - 3 drops [organic sweet orange essential oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/orange-sweet-essential-oil/profile) - 2 drops [organic dried ginger essential oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/ginger-essential-oil/profile) - 2 drops [organic clove essential oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/clove-bud-essential-oil/profile) - 2 drops [organic pink pepper essential oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/pink-pepper-essential-oil/profile) - 6 drops [vitamin E oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/vitamin-e-oil/profile) - 1 oz. [carrier oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/catalog/ingredients/carrier-oils) For a traditional autumnal blend, this combination uses warm fall spices with festive sweet orange. Other options for a fall spice blend include [nutmeg](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/nutmeg-essential-oil/profile), [cinnamon](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/cinnamon-leaf-essential-oil/profile), and [allspice essential oils](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/allspice-essential-oil/profile), or any substitutions that fit your fancy! This recipe includes a 1% dilution of vitamin E oil as a preservative. ## Misty Woodland Blend - 4 drops [Virginia cedarwood essential oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/cedarwood-virginia-essential-oil/profile) - 3 drops [organic scotch pine essential oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/scotch-pine-essential-oil/profile) - 2 drops [organic rosemary essential oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/rosemary-essential-oil/profile) - 2 drops [organic armoise essential oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/armoise-essential-oil/profile) - 1 drop [organic spearmint essential oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/spearmint-essential-oil/profile) - 6 drops [vitamin E oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/vitamin-e-oil/profile) - 1 oz. [carrier oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/catalog/ingredients/carrier-oils) Not a fan of the spiced combinations? This aroma blend reminds me of Oregon's forests when autumn rains return after the end of a hot and dry summer. Herbaceous and woodsy, with a hint of mint and fragrant cedar trees. This recipe includes a 1% dilution of vitamin E oil as a preservative.   **Directions** 1. Carefully drop essential oils and vitamin E oil into a [glass bottle with roll top](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/roll-top-glass-bottle/profile). 2. Top with MCT oil or other preferred carrier oil. 3. Attach roller top and lid. 4. Gently roll or invert bottle to mix. 5. Apply as a personal perfume or sniff the bottle for a quick pick-me-up! ** ** **Pro Tips** - These recipes can easily be increased to make larger quantities. - We recommend keeping essential oils at a dilution rate of 2% or lower to avoid potential skin irritations. - If you prefer or already have it on hand, please feel free to replace the pink pepper oil with [black pepper essential oil](https://www.mountainroseherbs.com/products/black-pepper-essential-oil/profile). It will add a slightly spicier note to the blend. I like to use pink pepper essential oil for its bright, citrusy character while still adding a kick of spice. - You can easily make substitutions to match your taste, and you can also leave out certain oils as desired. - Use our [Essential Oil Dilution Guide with Calculator](https://blog.mountainroseherbs.com/essential-oil-dilutions?hsLang=en-us) to measure the correct dilution percentage.   ### Need Another Way to Enjoy A Fall Aroma? ## [Try This Ginger and Citrus Aroma Spray Recipe!](https://blog.mountainroseherbs.com/diy-ginger-citrus-spray?hsLang=en-us)   You May Also Be Interested In: [How to Create Your Own Essential Oil Blends](https://blog.mountainroseherbs.com/tips-blending?hsLang=en-us) [Fuss-Free Fragrance with Our Roll-On Perfume Oils](https://blog.mountainroseherbs.com/aroma-oils?hsLang=en-us) [Floral Essential Oil Perfume Roll-On Recipes for Spring](https://blog.mountainroseherbs.com/spring-roll-on-perfume-blends?hsLang=en-us)         [View full post](https://blog.mountainroseherbs.com/3-fall-roll-on-recipes) ```json { "@context" : "http://schema.org", "@type" : "BlogPosting", "author" : { "@type" : "Person", "name" : "Kendle" }, "dateModified" : "2019-10-31T22:46:22.048Z", "datePublished" : "2019-10-17T19:14:00Z", "headline" : "3 DIY Fall Roll-On Perfume Oil Recipes", "image" : { "@type" : "ImageObject", "height" : 325, "url" : "https://blog.mountainroseherbs.com/hubfs/FallBlendsEO_Header-2.jpg", "width" : 800 }, "mainEntityOfPage" : "https://blog.mountainroseherbs.com/3-fall-roll-on-recipes", "publisher" : { "@type" : "Organization", "logo" : { "@type" : "ImageObject", "height" : 60.0, "url" : "https://blog.mountainroseherbs.com/hubfs/MRHLogo_Color_TransparentBackground-1.png", "width" : 161.9469 }, "name" : "Our Blog" } } ```
