Escentia

Escentia is a family-run brand founded in 1994 by Roy and Jenny Aiken. What began with Roy’s interest in essential oils has grown into a broad range of essential oils, carrier oils, aromatherapy products and natural formulation ingredients.

Today, their son Matthew and the wider Escentia team continue that family-led approach. The brand places strong emphasis on clear product grades, practical education and transparent information, helping people choose products suited to their needs with greater confidence.

Escentia also incorporates solar power, rainwater harvesting and close relationships with farmers and distillers into its way of working. This thoughtful approach connects the range back to the plants, people and places behind each product.
