WHAT ARE ESSENTIAL OILS?
Essential oils are naturally occurring oils extracted directly from organic material. No alcohol, paraffin or synthetic material in sight - and you can smell the difference.
They're gathered by steaming or pressing parts of a plant, like wood, leaves, seeds and stems, that release scent. Essential oils have been used across the world for centuries, heralded for their positive effects on mood. Some also swear by their medicinal benefits.
We love them because they're renewable, all-natural, clean-burning, and provide the most gorgeous scent throw.
