Melange Apothecary's Fun with Fragrance

Parfum blending kit lets you customize your scent

-Julie Ryan Evans

Do you like to change up your scent depending on your mood? Here's a great way to do so without spending beaucoup bucks - Melange Apothecary's Concrete Parfum Blending Kit. It comes with four unique fragrances to wear alone or blend together to create scent all your own. In the kit I got: Tuberose, Green Tea, Grenade, Feuille de Fromboise. (If you're not up on your French, melange is the word for "to blend or mix")

The packaging is cute and classy, and comes with four small jars of the "concrete parfum," which means it's made of jojoba oil and beeswax. The best comparison I can give you for its consistency is like the little jars of Carmex. You rub it on, and then the heat of your body then releases the scent. Ooo la la.

I've always shied away from giving perfume as a gift, because scents are so personal, but this one is perfect. And at $40 for the set of four, the price point isn't bad either.
