Essential oils are obtained
from the part of the plant that possesses the fragrance of the
plant or flower in concentrated form.
Essential oil is usually
obtained by steam distillation, whereas 'flower oils' are generally
extracted by using fats (a process called "enfleurage").
Essential oils do not contain alcohol or other solvents, or other
added fragrances, extracts, or essences.
