Your home’s signature scent:
Let's clear the air, literally, with a home fragrance made from the finest essential oils and nothing else. You're not into inhaling smoke or bombarding your guests with overpowering synthetic mystery chemicals, so this simple-yet-gorgeous natural scent is here to help you to breathe easy.
Choose from a 100 ml ready-made room & linen spray, or get the 5 ml diffuser blend, which contains undiluted, pure essential oils. Or, get a set of both to give your entire home a signature scent of it’s own!
White Sage & Lavender:
A fresh, earthy, herbal blend that's beautiful year round.
Smells like:
Cool, refreshing herbs with soft dry wood notes and sweet floral undertones.
Feels like:
Peaceful and soothing. Sharp yet soft. Clean yet earthy. Cooling and grounding.
How you use it:
Room & linen spray: Gently shake and mist around the room to fill your home with a light fragrance that lingers for a few minutes to an hour.
Applying to linens and upholstery will boost the fragrance while refreshing fabrics, but be sure to test it in an inconspicuous place first to ensure the essential oil blend won’t stain.
Oil separation is normal as no solubilizers or other fillers have been added to this completely natural product. Keep away from pets and children.
Shelf life: 6 months to 1 year.
Diffuser blend: For a more impactful way to scent your home, add a few drops to the diffuser of your choice and refresh as needed. You can also use a few drops to make a DIY room spray using an unscented toner or hydrosol.
Feel free to use these in any number of DIY applications as you would any other essential oil blend, but never apply undiluted essential oils directly to your skin.
Shelf life: 2 years+

Room & linen spray: distilled water, organic grape spirits, essential oils of high elevation lavender essential oil from France, spike lavender essential oil from Spain, organic lavender essential oil from France, lavender Maillette essential oil from France, organic sage, sustainably farmed white sage

Natural fragrance FAQs:
Because synthetic fragrances give me a headache! As an HSP with an extremely sensitive nose, I've always loved the idea of perfume, but wearing it made me sick until I discovered natural fragrance materials like essential oils, CO2 extractions, and absolutes.
I don’t know if natural perfumes are the safer or more sustainable choice. I can tell you that I LOVE the way real plants and flowers smell! I also love the way that wearing natural perfume makes me feel. It’s subtle, intricate, and wears close to the skin, allowing a more personal and grounding mind-body experience to unfold.
If you're looking for a budget-friendly fragrance that will last all day and night to give you the most "bang for your buck" you are on the wrong website. And that's ok! There's nothing wrong with synthetic fragrance materials, they're just not my thing.
If you're looking for something more complex that will interact with your body chemistry to make you feel more peaceful and connected to the earth, I think you'll find something to enjoy from Twinkle Apothecary.
100% natural perfume is DIFFERENT, so please forget everything you think you know about perfume. Really - mainstream perfumes take a lot of creative liberty with fragrance notes, so many people are confused when they smell the real thing and it’s not the same. Samples are your friends. Friends don’t let friends waste precious earth materials that they aren’t going to enjoy.
Keep in mind that there is an inherent “earthy” quality to these ingredients, as they literally come out of the ground. This is a turn-off for some, but I find that what many people think of as “earthy” actually smells “fresh” to me. I guess to me, "fresh" equals "real."
That depends on your individual nose and body chemistry. I’ve listed the approximate wear time in the product descriptions as tested on myself, but I have a very sharp nose.
These fragrances are dynamic and meant to unfold and change over time. The top note ingredients will always dissipate more quickly than the middle/heart notes, while the base notes should remain on your skin for some time.
It is a myth that oil-based or solid fragrances last longer. If longevity is a top priority for you, try a sample of both the alcohol and oil based options to see which one lasts longer on your skin.
These perfumes are full-strength and ready to wear as-is. Mixing your perfume into a carrier oil or other moisturizer will only dilute the fragrance, making it less strong and long wearing. Instead, consider layering your perfume over the matching body oil to moisturize your skin and boost the scent.
We live in an overly fragranced world, and 100% natural fragrances can easily be overwhelmed by strongly scented laundry detergents, hand soaps, lotions, etc., so consider switching to unscented (or naturally scented) products to ensure that your natural Twinkle perfume shines through.
Apply the base note (or heaviest, strongest) scent first. Once it dries and/or settles into your skin a bit, apply one or more middle note fragrances over it. Then, finish with the lightest, top note fragrance as a final touch.
Or, do whatever you want and change it up as you see fit. There aren’t actually any rules!
Are all of your ingredients organic?
No, everything is all-natural and 100% botanical based but some of the more obscure ingredients aren’t available as an organically grown option. (And in some instances the conventionally grown ingredient smells better!)
The oil and alcohol perfume bases are organic.
How do you ensure your ingredients are sustainable and child labor free?
I source from reputable, responsible, cruelty-free suppliers, whom I’ve come to trust to provide me with the highest quality ingredients available over my past decade as a natural perfumer. If you would like to vet them yourself, feel free to do so. My main supplier is Eden’s Botanicals, and I also have some ingredients from Organic Infusions, Lotus Garden, and Aftelier Perfumes.
Which is better? Oil, alcohol, or solid perfume?
There isn’t one better option. They all have pros and cons! I’m partial to the alcohol based sprays but oil based perfumes seem to be more popular.
Which of your fragrances are more masculine or suitable for men?
Everything here is gender-neutral. Read through the descriptions and try a sample of anything that sounds good to you.
What if I get a rash?
Stop using the product and make a note of all of the ingredients listed in the product for future reference. I cannot be responsible for everyone’s allergies and do not offer refunds. Always start with a sample first.
I’m pregnant, which of your perfumes should I avoid?
Congratulations! That is a question for a doctor, not a perfumer.
