Fragrance vs Essence

[Guest guest]

Hi Cathy,

 

I changed the subject header and snipped all the text

from Chris' post about the archives because it didn't

seem to have anything to do with your question here.

 

I'm not sure this is exactly what you were getting at,

but the simple answer I guess is that fragrance is a

broader term that includes synthetic chemicals that

are synthesized in a lab. Whereas, in natural

perfumery, we use the term essence to indicate a

substance directly extracted from a plant (or

sometimes animal).

thanks. Well I have found that fragrances are not always essential oils and

does not always give the same healing properties like essential oils do. For

example my fragrance lavendar mint, might cause people to think its pure

lavendar with a touch of mint,however this is not always the case. we get the

smells at times without the oils. That was the discussion I was attempting to

bring up and see what others believed and thought.

Blessings,

Cathy
