Please tell me the name of that oil that has no fragrance or little bit fragrance & can dissolve in alcohol.

I think most will.

Many substances can be dissolved in alcohol . Due to the OH group at the alcohol molecule , it becomes polar so it can attract ions . On the other hand oils are made of organic acids which of course are polar so all oils can be dissolved in an aquallibrium of alcohol.
