DIY Perfume: Lavender Vanilla
I make most of my own personal products, but I couldn't find a natural perfume I was comfortable with. So I made my own DIY Perfume!

Notes
Occasionally I will spray this DIY perfume on my skin, but most often I spray on clothing. I am always surprised that I can still catch the aroma hours later when I am out and about. It's like a breath of fresh air and always helps me stay calm.
