Aromatherapy Identity & LanguageA great deal of Plant or flower
is require to produce a rather small amount of essential oil
They must be stored with a tight lid & in a cool environment.
They love glass either colored or frosted because they are light sensitive
They are not an oil in the true sense of the word, they evaporate and will float from our skin into the air yet can penetrate into the blood stream!
They live active for years if treated with care1
They do not like extreme temperatures
They are not uniform, colors from clear to green, light to heavy weight & disperse differently sometimes cloudy!
They do not mix well with water, they love fatty acid oils, alcohol, soap, honey & eye yolk!

Aromatherapy Methods of ExtractionDistillation: is the
number one preferred method of organic & natural gurus.Plant MaterialsContainer , tube &
receptacle with cool water
Content is heated, plant live droplets are carried by steam to receptacle
Lighter oils float to the top…voila essential oil
Below…floral water
Facts about distillation;Higher temperatures or
pressure great higher volumes of oil but directly effects quality.Destroys plant’s fragile
substancesChanges aroma
A complete essential oil has all it’s components.Example:
lavender has 160 different components
Aromatherapy Methods of ExtractionCold Press the next
preferred method of processing of organic and naturalist gurus.Specifics plant
materials including fruit skin abd thick leaf plants are gathered
Mixed with a little water
Pressured with compression for oil extraction
Enfleurage is an ancient methodPlant materials
immersed in neutral fat ( either animal or plant)
Pressed between two hard surfaces (glass)
Repeated over weeksOnce fat was separated
from the plant material the mixture was covered with alcohol until the oil separated from the fat
Aromatherapy Methods of ExtractionChemical Solvent not the
most favorite 21st Century preference. Solvents include: hexane, petroleum benzine, ether &carbon tetrachloride Extraction comes with
vacuum distillation Solvents are highly toxic
& plant extraction is never complete
End results -solvent in essential oil 5 parts per million
Resinoid Method is separating the essential oil with fragrant resins
Odorless & toxic Heat separation is an
additional solvent: toluol/toluene or alcohol Alcohol is the preferred
solvent
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Method Liquid-phication to extract
essential oils Leaves High and low notes Debate of therapeutic value
still out to jury!
