Perfume Oils

A perfume oil is a fragrance blended into an oil-based carrier rather than an alcohol-based formula. It is applied directly to the skin, usually with a roll-on applicator. Perfume oils tend to stay closer to the body, creating a softer and more personal scent experience.

Roll a small amount onto pulse points such as your wrists, neck or behind the ears. There is no need to rub the oil into your skin – simply apply it and allow the fragrance to develop naturally. The 10ml roll-on format makes it easy to reapply whenever you like.

The main difference between a perfume oil and an Eau de Parfum is the base and the way the fragrance is applied. Perfume oils are oil-based and applied directly to the skin, while Eau de Parfum is alcohol-based and sprayed onto the skin.

An Eau de Parfum generally creates more diffusion around the wearer, while a perfume oil stays closer to the body. Neither is necessarily better – it simply depends on how you like to wear your fragrance.

Yes. Perfume oil can be worn alone or layered with Eau de Parfum. Try combining the same fragrance in both formats for a fuller scent experience, or experiment with different CRA-YON fragrances to create your own combination. When layering, apply the perfume oil to your pulse points first, then add Eau de Parfum.

How long a perfume oil lasts can vary depending on the fragrance, your skin and how much you apply. Because perfume oil stays close to the skin, the scent may feel more subtle than an Eau de Parfum even when it can still be detected on the skin. You can easily reapply throughout the day using the roll-on applicator.
