Stocking stuffers are sweet little holiday gifts.
They’re typically shared before a big celebration where more gifts are exchanged (like an appetizer before a meal), but you can give aromatherapy gifts in any way you like. They make perfect “Secret Santa” aromatherapy gifts and presents for co-workers.
This post will give you 5 ideas for the best aromatherapy gifts for stocking stuffers to bring a smile to a friend’s face! We’ll also share some fun ways to sustainably wrap your aromatherapy gifts!
Top 5 Aromatherapy Gifts for Stocking Stuffers
1. Wild Orange Foaming Hand Soap
Year after year, Wild Orange Foaming Hand Soap is one of our most popular holiday recipes! Bright, fruity orange wild oil combines with Scotch pine essential oil for a fresh, foresty aroma, as liquid Castile soap cleanses hands without leaving skin too dry.
The original recipe is formulated for a 250 ml bottle (perfect for a bathroom sink). To make a smaller 50 ml bottle (easy to carry in a bag or keep in a desk drawer), reduce ingredients to:
- 40 ml Castile soap
- 10 drops Wild Orange Oil
- 6 drops Scotch Pine Oil
2. Carrot Cake Lip Balm
Your friends will love this lip-smacking, spicy balm! Made with nutty kpangnan butter, vanilla-infused jojoba, and spice essential oils, this buttery-smooth balm warms and moisturizes lips while restoring a soft, nourished texture.
Pair this DIY lip balm with a handmade Carrot Cake Body Butter for the perfect body care collection!
3. Burly Beard Oil
Help a friend turn a gnarly, unruly beard into one that’s smooth and touchably soft! This DIY recipe is made with black spruce, cedarwood, and sandalwood smells irresistibly masculine, while jojoba oil conditions hair and moisturizes skin. Transport your friend's senses to the forest with this gorgeous beard oil.
4. Sunshine Blend
Pick up one of our top-selling pre-made essential oil blends: Sunshine! This warm, sparkling combination of citrus essential oils invites a burst of light, energy, and optimism into every day. (Say good-bye to low energy!)
Use this essential oil blend in a convenient roll-on bottle, pre-diluted and ready for topical use, or bring the scent of Sunshine into your friend’s home by getting the 10 ml dropper bottle, perfect for essential oil diffusers.
5. Mountain Bandits Oil
‘Tis the season to help friends keep their immunity strong! Give a bottle of our popular immune-support essential oil blend, Mountain Bandits. Your friend can add a few drops of this spicy, sweet oil to an essential oil diffuser, inhaler, body oil, natural cleaning products, and more.

Wrap your essential oils sustainably!
Respecting the environment is our guiding principle at Aromatics. We highly encourage you to wrap your holiday aromatherapy gifts (essential oils, hydrosols, accessories) sustainably! Try reusing the packing materials that come in your Aromatics order.
Your aromatherapy purchase will be shipped in beautiful muslin bags and compostable void filler. Even our “styrofoam” packing peanuts are actually biodegradable—they’re made out of corn. (Hold one under water and watch it dissolve!) Discover our eco-friendly packaging.
And it’s not against the rules to avoid “packaging” your aromatherapy gifts altogether.
Tie a festive ribbon around your aromatherapy items, or wrap your perfect gift in a beautiful scarf or handkerchief. If you’re feeling playful, stick with the “stocking stuffer” theme and find a cute holiday stocking to slip your aromatherapy gift into! Your friend can keep the stocking and use it to decorate their home (or to give a gift to someone else).
