I love Apple Pie Fragrance, especially in the Fall and Winter. It is great for Thanksgiving too. I usually mix perfume oils to make the Apple Pie. Such as Green Apple, Cinnamon, and Maple Spice. I would agree with the pet deodorizing option to use cedarwood. I like that you can mix and match to create your perfect fragrance. After all, fragrances evoke powerful memories, create moods and really say a lot about personality.

    I have been making something very similar for about a year now. I add a small bit of rubbing alcohol to the mix (2 tsp or so) it helps the oils to stay mixed in and helps the water to evaporate and just the scents are left! I can't wait to try the blends you suggest! Thanks!

    I love this! After reading the other review, I added a touch of rubbing alcohol to the mixture. I halved the recipe, and used 3 drops of lemon oil, and 3 of wintergreen mint. It really makes everything smell fresh. I sprayed my freshly washed and dried sheets after putting them on my bed, and it smells wonderful! Thank you for this recipe, I will definitely be trying more combinations.
