Bora Bora: Pure Fragrance Oil

A few drops go a long way. Use your Pure Fragrance Oil any of these ways:

• Add a few drops to a water diffuser or oil burner to scent a room.
• Refresh your wax melts once the scent has faded.
• Mix a few drops into baking soda, then sprinkle on carpet and vacuum it up, or use it as an all-purpose cleaner.
• Put a few drops on a cotton ball or tissue and tuck it into a drawer, closet, car, gym bag, shoes, luggage, or the bottom of a trash can.
• Dab a few drops inside the cardboard tube of your toilet paper or paper towel roll.
• Drop a scented cotton ball into your vacuum canister or onto the filter, so it freshens the air while you clean.
• Set a scented cotton ball near an air vent or in front of a fan to carry the scent through the room.
• Put a few drops on your furnace or AC air filter so a soft scent spreads through the house when the system runs. Refresh it when you change the filter.
• Rest a scented cotton ball on a floor or wall vent cover and let the airflow carry it.
• Tuck a scented cotton ball under or behind furniture, up out of reach of children and pets.
• Drop a scented cotton ball in with off-season clothes, linens, or a packed suitcase to keep them fresh.
• Hide a few drops on a tissue behind the toilet, in the trash, or on the toilet paper tube.
• Clip a scented cotton ball to a box fan or window fan with a clothespin to push scent across a room.
• Add a few drops to pinecones, dried flowers, or a faux wreath or tree you already have for instant potpourri or scented decor.
• Add a few drops to a small pot of water and warm it on the stove on low for a simple simmer pot.
• Top a spray bottle with water, shake, and mist for a quick room or linen refresh.
• Add a few drops to your mop water or homemade cleaner. Go light and use only on sealed floors, since oil can make floors slick.
• For skin, always dilute first: about 2 parts carrier oil to 1 part fragrance oil for a dab-on perfume, or about 4 parts carrier to 1 part for all-over body use.

Good to know:

• Concentrated and uncut, so a little goes a long way.
• For skin use, dilute and patch test before regular use, and never apply undiluted.
• If you simmer it on the stove, keep an eye on it and never let the water boil dry.
• For a scent boost in a candle, add just one drop to the melted wax pool of an already-lit candle. Keep it away from the flame and wick, and never add more than a drop, since fragrance oil is flammable.
• On floors, use only a little and only on sealed surfaces, since oil can be slippery.
• Keep it off fabric and finished or porous surfaces like wood, since it can stain.
• Keep away from open flame, keep out of reach of children and pets, and do not ingest.
