How to Use Our Perfumes
At Herb & Root, we offer two perfume formats—perfume oils and perfume sprays—so you can tailor your ritual to the moment. Use them solo or together to customize projection, longevity, and sillage.
Clean & Vegan • Paraben & Phthalate Free • Small-Batch • Woman- & Black-Owned
🌿 Perfume Oils
Concentrated fragrance in a gentle, alcohol-free oil base. Skin-loving and perfect for layering.
How to Apply
- Pulse points first — wrists, inner elbows, neck, behind ears, or décolletage.
- Layer for depth — blend two complementary oils or layer beneath a matching spray.
- Travel-friendly touch-ups — a little goes a long way; re-apply as desired.
✨ Perfume Sprays
Classic eau de parfum: a diffused mist for an all-over scent experience.
How to Apply
- Spritz from 6–8 inches onto skin or clothing.
- Pulse points or air cloud — target pulse points or spritz the air and walk through.
- Do not rub — let it settle to preserve bright top notes.
💫 Layering Oils & Sprays
For dimension and longevity, start with perfume oil on skin, then finish with a perfume spray in the same or a complementary scent.
- Base (Oil): anchors the scent and hugs the skin.
- Top (Spray): adds lift, projection, and sillage.
🌸 Caring for Your Perfumes
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Keep bottles tightly closed to preserve quality.
- Use within 12–18 months of opening for the freshest experience.
❓ FAQs
Can I layer oils with sprays from different collections?
Yes. Pairing complementary notes (e.g., floral oil + woody spray) creates a custom signature.
Will perfume stain clothing?
Perfume is generally fabric-safe, but always spot-test delicate textiles and avoid silks.
Are your perfumes clean and vegan?
Yes—our formulas are paraben- and phthalate-free, vegan, and produced in small batches in Texas.
