Frequently Asked Questions

Helpful answers about choosing and using products in this collection.

What does “standardised essential oils” mean?

Standardised essential oils are oils adjusted or selected to maintain a more consistent aroma or composition from batch to batch. This can help when a more uniform result is needed for formulation or repeated use.

Are standardised essential oils still natural?

That depends on the specific product and how it has been standardised. It is best to check the product page carefully for details on the oil and its intended use.

How are standardised essential oils different from pure essential oils?

Pure essential oils are usually presented as they occur naturally, while standardised essential oils are prepared to offer more consistency. This can be useful when you want a more predictable scent or performance.

Are standardised essential oils suitable for diffusers?

Some may be, but it depends on the product. Always check the product page to see whether the oil is intended for diffusing, formulation, or another type of use.

Can I apply standardised essential oils directly to the skin?

In most cases, no. Even when standardised, essential oils are still concentrated and usually need to be diluted properly before external skin use.

Standardised essential oils are pure essential oils produced by blending multiple species of the same plant in order to achieve a consistent and reliable aroma profile. 

Unlike single-species essential oils, which can vary naturally in aroma due to factors such as climate, soil conditions, rainfall, and harvest timing, standardised essential oils are blended to maintain a consistent scent from batch to batch. This makes them particularly useful in applications where aroma consistency is important, such as product formulation or repeat manufacturing.

Standardised essential oils remain 100% pure essential oils. They are not diluted, extended, or synthetically altered in any way. The only difference lies in the selection of plant species used to achieve a stable and predictable aromatic profile.
