EzraTo make perfume without alcohol, you can use a carrier oil such as jojoba oil, fractionated coconut oil, or sweet almond oil as a base for your fragrance. You then mix in essential oils or fragrance oils to create your desired scent. Allow the mixture to sit and mature for a few weeks before using to allow the scents to blend properly.
