Make Your Own Magical Scent

One thing I really like to do at the beginning of a New Year (or birthday)  is create a new essential oil blend for myself. I change all the time so it is fun to create a perfume oil that fits me perfectly for that particular era. I used to just create different scents that I like, but then I discovered the magical side of herbs and oils . Now I can create oils that have intent in them and that makes it even more exciting!
So here is a list of fairly common oils that smell good and have magical properties. Make your own blend and give it a name!!
