Yes, you can use a neutral oil like the smell of peanuts. Put in a bottle, add a small piece of vanilla pod and leave in the dark. Check daily and discard the pod when the scent is to your taste.
The same with the stick of cinnamon or cloves - both in a mortar pestle, grind up and smell enough to catch but not too smooth at a later date. Powdered spices are not yet used jewelry, toilet or kitchen!
I do not know to make your own almond scent, though - what you really feel the microscopic quantities of cyanide in almonds is yes, but not a good idea in an enclosed space like a bottle!
Enjoy!

No, I think it would work because the heat could be the smell away. The fragrant oil must be very concentrated, with soap and candles to work.
