When it comes to fragrance oils UK buyers often don’t realise that there’s a difference between fragrance oil and essential oil.

While fragrance oils are made in a laboratory, essential oil is produced from natural materials, by distilling the natural essences from the seeds, roots, flowers, or bark of natural plants so that the resulting oil benefits from their unique aromas and characteristics. Fragrance oil, on the other hand, is synthetic and man-made, although some contain fragrance components that are naturally derived such as limonene from lemons or vanillin from vanilla beans.

Not only are fragrance oils and essential oils made different, their uses also sometimes differ. While it’s still possible to use a fragrance oils diffuser to bring beautiful scents into your room, they’re best used when making scented candles, soaps, shower gels, and shampoos, as well as lotion and cream bases and potpourri.

Fragrance oils come in an enormous variety of scents, some of which mimic scents that can’t be found in the natural world such as baby powder, chocolate, and fresh linen. Some of the most popular fragrance oils include those with fruity and floral notes such as mango, honeysuckle, frangipani, pineapple and strawberry.
