    I have read many books on essential oils with the intent to try my hand at homemade beauty products that allows me to control the scents and ingredients used. This book actually included recipes for products I would have liked to make but weren't included in the other books. This book actually gives a more thorough discussion of the essential oils themselves which I found very useful. Can't wait to gather all my ingredients and start cooking away!

What Are Essential Oils?

Essential oils are concentrated hydrophobic liquids with volatile aroma compounds derived from plants. These oils are natural aromatic compounds taken from different parts of plants namely the bark, seeds, stems, flowers, and roots. These oils are also known as ethereal oils, volatile oils, and aetherolea.

The extracted oil is important because it carries both a unique scent as well as the essence of the plant. Essential oils can be both powerfully and beautifully fragrant, and in addition to their distinctive scent, these oils provide plants their needed protection against diseases and plant-eating animals. They also play a role in plants’ pollination.

Volatile aromatic compounds that are non-water based phytochemicals make up essential oils. These oils may be soluble to fat but they don’t include acids or fatty lipids found in animal or vegetable oils. They are clean, almost crisp, and are absorbent. Unadulterated and pure essential oils are translucent, and their colors vary from crystal clear to deep blue.

Aside from the Egyptians, the Greeks also used essential oils. They used those oils for the practice of aromatherapy and therapeutic massage. The Romans used aromatic oils as well for personal hygiene and health purposes. Persians on the other hand started to use distillation methods to extract oils from aromatic plants. In Europe, oil extracts were utilized throughout the dark ages for fragrant and anti-bacterial properties.

Modern times have rediscovered the healing properties of essential oils through a French chemist named Rene-Maurice Gattefosse. What he did was to treat
