A Fragrance Lover’s Guide To Essential Oils In The Home

Airscent Diffusers • February 7, 2022

Essential oils are gifts that are lovingly bestowed upon perfumers from Mother Earth’s sun-kissed earth.


Their unique essence, which is found in the roots, seeds, bark and flowers that are deep within the heart of many plants, is extracted either by trapping the oil via distillation (steam of water) or mechanical cold pressing.


It can take many pounds of a plant to produce a single bottle of essential oil and these naturally-occurring substances serve as a boon to mankind because they become integral to the many formulations that enhance the air quality and general ambiance of both any space.

The True Nature Of Essential Oils


The name is somewhat deceptive because essential oils are neither oils in the traditional sense nor essential in the same manner as other compounds.


They cannot be mixed with water and lack the fatty acids found in animal and vegetable oils.


The connection to the word, ‘essence’, refers to the fact that the oil is the essence of a particular plant, and its ultimate composition will depend upon the plant from which it originated.


These complex natural blends are known to contain as many as 20 to 60 diverse components of various concentrations.


Research indicates that fragrances developed from essential oils have the power, when diffused via a scent machine, to alter moods and enhance mental clarity.


Some have diverse functions.


Clary sage and lemon oil, for example, are very popular in cooking, while others like clove oil, is used to euthanize fish in laboratories and orange essential oil repels ants.
