I would never have thought about candy essential oil blends unless a friend interested in making body scrubs hadn’t asked me about them.
She specifically wanted to know how to make her scrubs smell like cotton candy.
Imagine, sweet smelling essential oils.
Well, come to find out, there’s actually a blend of essential oils that smells like cotton candy.
In fact, there are other candy scented essential oil blends to try.
Remember, we all smell things differently so some of these may not smell sweet to you. You will need to experiment and when you are making them be strong because they may make you want to eat candy. 🙂
How To Use These Candy Smelling Essential Oil Blends
These oil combinations can be used in your DIY beauty blends or in a diffuser.
You will need to adjust the drops according to what you are using it for.
You can’t mess it up. Really! If you don’t like the smell start over or if it needs to be stronger add a few more drops of oils.
The great thing about using essential oils is that you can experiment to your heart’s delight until you get the scent you love!
For a diffuser simply drop these oils in your favorite essential oil diffuser or diffuser jewelry and you are good to go.
If you don’t have a diffuser this is one of my favorite ones. Grab it if you see it under $20.
I get my essential oils from a few different places.
Simply Earth has a good variety of oils to choose from.

Ok these sound waaay too fun! I can’t wait to give them a try! Thank you… i’m Pinning them all for later!
Yes, some of these smell sooo good!
Do the cotton candy and bubble gum ones really work?? I want these scents for my skincare products but don’t want to use synthetics.
I do think these blends smell good together but what I think smells like cotton candy my daughter doesn’t. It’s sorta trial and error because your chemistry reacts to the oils differently.
I couldn’t find any premade oil blend that didn’t have “natural perfumes” or fragrance.
If you find one, please let me know.
This is a weird one, but I think orange and dragonsblood together smell like those old, gritty, two-toned Smartees lollipops from penny candy places…
I remember those!
I will have to try that combo and see what I think.
How many drops each would be needed to put into a roller bottle?
Hi Nita,
I haven’t tried using those scents in a roller bottle but I bet that would be great!
You could experiment by doubling the drops in a recipe and adding them to a roller bottle and then fill the rest of the way with fractionated coconut oil.
Let me know if you try it.
When you say vanilla…. like vanilla extract??
Vanilla isn’t technically an essential oil but it’s different than the extract. There are a few different brands. I think like most oils they all smell a little different to each person.
Edens Garden has a nice vanilla. https://amzn.to/2UOYaEO
I never tried these kind of essential oils but they totally capture my interest. Can’t wait to try them, they sound really yummy.
Thanks for sharing this beautiful list.
I’m glad you enjoyed them! Thanks for commenting.
