Purposes of Perfumed Body Oils

Natural perfumed body oils are becoming a popular aromatic choice because of their sublime and long-lasting smells. There are a wide variety of purposes for any particular kind of body oil. These purposes range from scenting your bath and body, to scenting your home, car, and office.


Benefits of Scenting Your Bath

The benefits of using scented bath salts goes well beyond cleansing. In order to fully enjoy the benefits of the salts one should allow at least ten minutes for soaking. The salts help to soothe and relax muscles, increase circulation, and dramatically reduce stress. Most oil and herbal salt baths are safe for kids and will likely be a treat for the exhausted parents as well.


Perfume that is Healthy for Your Skin

Perfumed body oils do not contain alcohol, which is one of the major reasons spray on perfume fades away quickly. Because body oils are in a pure oil form they last throughout the day and are healthy for the skin. They are quickly absorbed into your skin keeping it soft and moisturized and giving the skin a radiant look others are sure to notice.


Scenting Your Car

The quickest way to scent your car is by using an air freshener-spray. If you drive a car without leather seats, there is also a linen spray that would capture that scent longer. There are plug-ins for the vents where the oils can slowly come out as the air conditioner or heater blows into your car.


Scenting Your Home and Office

There are many beautiful ways to both decorate your home and office as well as spread the attractive aromas. For example, simply placing one drop of oil on the ceiling fan could quickly freshen up an entire room. In the office a simple reed diffuser or oil warmer will maintain a steady flow of your favorite fragrance. There are even reed diffuser flowers, which actually look like real flowers. The perfumed oil travels up the stem and this simple decoration provides your small cubicle in the workplace, or a room in your home with a refreshing smell.


How to Use the Fragrance Oils

You must also take into consideration how to use these perfumed body oils. They come in lotion bottles, small roll-on glass containers, sprays and mists, or oil burners and warmers. Many of these containers are small enough to put in your purse or keep in your car so that they are handy when you need them most.
