Essential oils occur naturally in the fruit, flowers and leaves of plants; some
contain large quantities of oil and are easy to obtain, such as from the peel
of an orange, while others are more difficult to extract and so more expensive,
like rose oil. Today, many perfumes and oils originally obtained from flowers
can be reproduced synthetically to a very high standard, protecting rare, natural
crops, and are known as ‘nature identical’ oils.
