How to Use Perfume Oil: A Complete Guide by Jannah Ouds
Perfume oils are a luxurious and intimate way to wear fragrance. Unlike an alcohol based perfume, perfume oils are highly concentrated, alcohol-free, and long-lasting — perfect for anyone who wants a signature scent that lingers beautifully throughout the day. At Jannah Ouds, we specialise in premium fragrance oils, from rich oud to soft florals, crafted for a deeply personal and sophisticated perfume experience.
1. Choose Your Perfect Perfume Oil
Start by selecting a perfume oil that suits your personality and preferred scent profile. Some of our most popular options include:
-
Oudh Perfume Oil – Deep, woody and luxurious, ideal for evening wear or those who love bold Arabian notes.
-
Rose Oud – A romantic fusion of Damask rose and rich oud, perfect for timeless elegance.
-
Amber Oud – Warm, smooth and sensual, beautifully suited for everyday wear.

2. Apply to Pulse Points
To get the best performance from your perfume oil, gently apply perfume oils to your pulse points — areas where the blood vessels sit close to the skin and naturally radiate warmth. These include:
-
Wrists
-
Neck and behind the ears
-
Inner elbows
-
Base of the throat
These spots help your fragrance develop gradually, releasing each note slowly for a more intimate, long-lasting aroma. For more expert tips, see our guide How to Use Perfume Oil.
3. Layer for a Unique Scent
One of the greatest advantages of perfume oils is how beautifully they layer. Unlike an alcohol based perfume, oils blend smoothly without overwhelming your senses.
Try combining:
-
A woody base such as Oudh Perfume Oil with a floral oil like Rose Perfume Oil to create a truly personalised signature scent.
-
Or layer Musk Tahara Vanilla with Kashmir Musk for a creamy, comforting base.
If you want a gourmand twist, try Choco Musk Oil over a soft floral.
4. Storage Tips for Longevity
To preserve the quality, richness and longevity of your perfume oils:
-
Keep bottles away from direct sunlight
-
Store them in a cool, dry place
-
Ensure caps are always tightly closed to prevent oxidation
Proper storage helps your fragrance oils stay fresh and potent for months. For advice on perfume lifespan, see Can Perfume Go Off? Here's What You Need to Know.
