There are several places that you can create your own fragrance. One that I have heard good things about since they will even give you a whole analytical report with your scent is:

www.fragranceforyou.com

Another is bubbleliciousbodyessentials.com where you will be able to create not only perfume, but body wash, creams, etc.

You can even go as far as to create your own smell at home if you are daring enough by purchasing essential oils at any body store or through ebay.

To get your feet wet, try a three-oil blend. Pick three oils that interest you: a top note, middle note and base note. First, open the bottles, place them close together, and sniff. This will give you a very general idea of the character of the blend. Describe your initial impressions in your notebook.

A simple ratio to begin with is three drops of the top note, two drops of the middle note, and one drop of the base note. Roll the capped bottle containing the blend between your hands to mix the oils and warm them a bit. Give them a few gentle shakes to make sure they are well-blended, then sniff. The top note may seem to overpower the other oils, but it's the nature of top notes to express themselves first. They also fade the fastest, so don't make a snap judgment about the blend.

Place a drop of the oil on a smelling strip made from a sliced-up coffee filter and allow it to dry for fifteen minutes. Now give it a try. Has the scent evolved? Are other notes more fully present? Describing perfume is often like describing music. Has the base note drowned out the rest of your blend? Has the top note become too quiet? Can you discern the middle note at all? You want your perfume to have complexity and depth. You want the notes in your blend to harmonize with one another.

Work in a well-ventilated room and be sure to take frequent fresh-air breaks. Essential oils are highly concentrated, and inhaling their fumes directly for extended periods of time can make you feel dizzy or nauseous. Breaks are important for another good reason - you don't want to overpower your sense of smell. Your nose needs a rest! Besides fresh air, try breathing in the aroma of ground coffee to periodically refresh your sniffer.

The website exists since I checked it out myself, but for some reason, it Yahoo is acting weird when I write it in correctly. I think that it is too long.
