In order to get the full benefits of essential oils, it is very important to know how the plants are grown and what method of extraction is used. We use only "genuine" (unadulterated) oils which we source globally. Please be aware that there is a difference between "genuine and authentic" oils and their synthetic or "fragrance" oil counterparts - though they may smell pleasant, synthetic and fragrance oils have little or no therapeutic effect and are often mixed with petrochemicals. The are also often far less expensive. Our aromatherapy oils are therapeutic quality and we are sure you will notice the difference. Remember, for
therapeutic results you must use high quality oils. Essential oils are very concentrated. Please dilute for use on the skin.

This is a lovely Rosa damascena absolute. You won't be dissappointed!
Rose absolute is a refined, liquid extraction of fragrant compounds from the fresh blossom. Although absolutes contain essential oil compounds they differ from distilled essential oils. An absolute is a refinement of a concrete, which is a thick, fragrant material extracted from the plant using a hydro-carbon solvent. The concrete contains essential oils, fatty acids and waxes. Absolutes are extracted from concretes with pure alcohol. The alcohol dissolves and absorbs the fragrant material from the concrete. Waxes, fats and other non-aromatic contents precipitate out and are removed by filtering. The alcohol is removed through evaporation. What's left behind is the pure, fragrant absolute - a concentration of aromatic compounds including essential oil constituents.
Rose, a mid to base note in perfumery. Affiliated with the astrological sign Venus. Best known for its antidepressant effects.Helpful for depression,insomnia,migraine headache,nervous tension,stress, sorrow, and dissapointments.

Read all about Vanilla Click Here
Our Vanilla is the highest quality CO2 extract from the dried pods grown in Madagascar.Because this CO2 extract of the familiar Vanilla Bean contains over 12% vanillin it is far richer, sweeter, and more aromatic than any other form of Vanilla. Sensual, warm and aphrodisiac, this CO2 extraction contains no solvent residues (found in the more familiar Vanilla Absolute.)
Vanilla comes from an orchid native to Mexico. When Cortez met Montezuma in the 1500's he recorded that the emperor was served a drink made from powdered cocoa beans and vanilla pods. Vanilla is a vine that flowers and produces long seeds like bean pods. It is cultivated much like string beans, with a pole for support. Most Vanilla worldwide is used for flavoring, and is made by soaking the dried beans in alcohol. It is widely adulterated and often artificially manufactured.
A precious oil.A base note in perfumery. Warm, soothing, calms emotions, eases tension, helps with anger.
Everyone knows the smooth sweet smell of Vanilla, always associated with cookies, ice cream, and home cooking. It is calming, comforting, bringing back warm memories. Vanilla also dispels anger, frustration, and tensions. Its relaxing influence can help to induce menstruation, and it is an aphrodisiac because of its relaxing and sensual fragrance.
Vanilla is a valuable essential oil for perfume blending, smoothing out rough edges, and giving warmth to floral blends.
We recommend blending with Vanilla, diffusing Vanilla, and using it in massage blends, particularly when there is tension in the female reproductive system.
We do not recommend taking the essential oil of Vanilla internally. It is not toxic, but could be sensitizing. Because it is not widely tested, we do not recommend its use for pregnant women (induces menstruation) and children.

This essential oil is more floral than the less expensive third distillation which can tend to be herby thus making this a better blending oil. Ylang Ylang is one of the few essential oils subjected to fractional distillation, i.e., yielding in succession YlangYlang Extra, (Ylangylang supreme) #1, #2, and #3 (normally, some distillers may produce more fractions.) A complete ylangylang is available either from a non fractional distillation, or from a combination of all the fractions. There are many different distillations of YlangYlang available on today's market. Each distiller judges his own different grades; there is no universal standard. Normally speaking, Ylangylang extra and 1st grade will contain more esters (primarily linalol) and thus be more effective as antidepressants relaxants. As you pass down to 2nd and 3rd grade, from the same distiller, you will see fewer esters, and an increase in sesquiterpenes. This might indicate that ylangylang 3 might be a better choice for skin care, for example. The higher occurrence of caryophyllene indicates that #3 might be useful in an anti viral blend, as well. Ylang Ylang Extra is most commonly used in perfumery, while ylangylang 2 or 3 are more apt to be used in soap and skinner products. The scent becomes lighter and less heady as you go down the scale.
