Not being mean, but Diana does have a point. You should know your correspondence basics before casting!
Herbs for Love:
Clove, copal, dragons blood, juniper, rose, aster, yarrow, lovage, lavender, lemonbalm, orris, peppermint, dill, marshmallow, sorrel, vervain, ylang ylang, apple, basil, betony, pansy, vanilla, gardenia, jasmine, orchid, poppy, lemon verbena, caraway, myrtle, raspberry, violet, chickweed, cinnamon, cumin, meadowsweet, geranium, ginger, hibiscus, marjoram, mastic, tormentil, mimosa, neroli, palmarosa, rosemary, thyme, tonka, valerian, vetiver, nutmeg.

Oils:

Incense:
Incense of any of the herbs above. Lavender, Juniper or Dragon's Blood would be good options to have.
Making 'Love Oil':
You'll need:
-

After that, add the oil to the bowl with the herb in and stir; grinding down the herb as much as possible at the same time. Then, add the powdered nutmeg and stir until it is a nice, lumpy mixture. Make sure it isnt too thin; but if it is, add some more powdered nutmeg.
Voi la.
