What is the difference between flower essential oils and their extracts?
For example, what is the difference between extract of rosemary oil and rosemary? How is the coming-extract? Is it water, oil? THANK YOU
They contain various chemical constituents. With rosemary, as the example would Rosemary essential oil steam distilled. The distillation produces two products: essential oil and hydrosol. The essential oil is part of the volatile oils, and the hydrosol contains water-soluble components. Rosemary extract (or whatever extract) a little more complicated, only because it seems not to be "a uniform Definition for the term to extract ". An oil extract Be like an infused oil. A rosemary infused oil would a carrier oil, infused with rosemary (usually just time, soaked in oil for a distance of) and thus the oil-soluble components in the oil. An alcohol extract want to be a tincture. Rosemary would be soaked as in the alcohol-water mixture and the alcohol soluble components would be extracted, but not the Oil soluble. A water extract, I'm not sure. I do not know much about flower therapy, but I think they are water extracted. I do not know exactly how they are made, but like the others, the water-soluble components were extracted, but not oil or alcohol. I hope I explained that well …
