essential oil
n. natural oil extracted from natural substance (such a plant, flower or fruit) which gives the plant or flower or fruit its characteristic odors (used for making perfumes, flavorings, etc.)


Wikipedia English The Free EncyclopediaDownload this dictionary
Essential oil
An essential oil is any concentrated, hydrophobic liquid containing volatile aroma compounds from plants, which are called aromatic herbs or aromatic plants. They are also known as volatile or ethereal oils, or simply as the "oil of" the plant material from which they were extracted, such as oil of clove. The term essential indicates that the oil carries distinctive scent (essence) of the plant, not that it is an especially important or fundamental substance. Essential oils do not as a group need to have any specific chemical properties in common, beyond conveying characteristic fragrances. They are not to be confused with essential fatty acids.
