Here are some ways mastic essential oil is used in perfumery:

1. Base Note : Mastic essential oil is often used as a base note in perfumes because of its fresh, woody and slightly spicy scent. It adds depth and longevity to the fragrance composition.
2. Blending : It blends well with other essential oils such as lavender, rosewood, pine, frankincense and citrus oils. This makes it a versatile addition in creating complex and harmonious fragrances.
3. Fixative : Mastic oil has excellent fixing properties, meaning it helps stabilize and prolong the scent of other oils in the mix.
