✨ Perfume Oils
These are the base of my layering routine. They sink into the skin and provide a long-lasting, rich foundation — whether I want something soft and musky or sweet and gourmand.
You get a ton of oil in each rollerball, so you have plenty of time and product to figure out your favorites!
Bestsellers Perfume Oil Discovery Kit
The epitome of your skin but better - smells like a long hug feels.
Amber Fragrance Oil
Complex musky sweet vanilla that I can’t get enough of.
Vanilla Musk fragrance Oil
Clean, crisp, slightly citrus base that smells insanely good over eos Pink Champagne.
000 Perfume Oil
Perfect layered with anything super fruity or a heavy pear, violet, and ambrette perfume.
Fleur de Blonde Perfume Oil
A musky vanilla delight. Use the dropper to make rollerballs, mix in with your moisturizer, or apply directly to the skin.
Innocence 50 ml Perfume Oil Dropper
Smells just like a certain wedding silk scent.
Lovers Lane Perfume Oil
☁️ Hair & Body Mists
Lightweight and versatile, these add a quick refresh and help create a diffused aura of scent. I use them on hair, clothes, or even as a final step to bring everything together and amplify particular notes.
This layered with any Goddess inspired perfume brings out the lavender in the best way.
Being Frenshe Hair, Body & Linen Mist Body Spray with Essential Oils
I like to layer this with any scent that has a violet note I want amped up a bit.

💫 Perfumes
These are more neutral, versatile scents that act like amplifiers. They don’t steal the spotlight — instead, they enhance whatever they’re layered with, adding lift, depth, or softness depending on the combo.
Sweet, clean, sparkling vanilla that plays very well with others.
Cotton Abyed Mamlakat Al Oud Perfume 2024
Bubbly, sparkling champagne with May rose and sugary vanilla - this adds a missing X factor to other fragrances and can help extend longevity.
Khair Felicity Paris Corner Perfume 2025
Nutty, a bit of lemon, heavy ambrette… so good I have 2 backup bottles. If you find this online or in TJ Maxx/Marshalls, pick it up - you may be underwhelmed at first but find yourself craving it later!
The Good Scent: Toasted Macadamia Nut
🧴 Body Care
The secret to long-lasting fragrance is clean, moisturized, prepped skin. I’ve included my tried and true, holy grail both favorites for you here!
Sweet, fruity, and perfect for spring-summer. This works well with so many different types of scents!
Shea Better Pink Champagne Body Lotion by eos
Pair this with the lotion for a longer-lasting scent. It smells incredible and doesn’t cause irritation in sensitive areas!
Pink Champagne Body Wash
Neutral but pleasant scent, and keeps my skin happy and moisturized without a lot of extra products. My holy grail!

The Vaseline trick (lay down a thin layer before applying perfume) really does work. You only need a tiny bit!
