HOW OUR OILS ARE MADE - MOTHER'S FRAGRANCES CONCENTRATED OIL

Mother's  Fragrances Essences are high quality perfume compounds which contain no  alcohol. Alcohol dries the skin. Oils moisturize it. Each 1/6 fl. oz.  bottle is equivalent in volume to one full ounce of a fine quality  alcohol-based perfume.

We employ the finest natural ingredients  in Mother's Fragrances Essences, including French rose oil, geranium oil  bourbon, Mysore sandalwood oil, Singapore patchouli, ylang ylang  bourbon, citronella neroli, jasmine and tuberose absolute, and clove oil  Madagascar, as well as natural resinoids including benzoin, labdanum,  styrax, vanilla and pure balsam. In addition we employ derivatives from  oils such as geraniol (from geranium leaves) and rhodinol (from  palmarosa grass).

Our essences contain no animal products. The  base for our Amber and Musk fragrances is ambrette seeds, to which other  spices, natural oils and derivatives of natural oils are added.

Mother's  Fragrances Essences are uncut, whereas most perfume oils on the market  are diluted with chemical solvents. All of our essences are blends,  except for our Pure Patchouli from Singapore. We blend our essences to  give them the natural fixative properties lost on extraction from the  plant, and to create beautiful new fragrances. For example, our  Patchouli blend combines Singapore Patchouli and Rose Oil with a touch  of clove, and our Musk has an accent of saffron. Since natural Jasmine  and Tuberose oil are prohibitively expensive -- one of our small bottles  would have to sell for $80 to $350-- we use them only in small amounts  blended with natural oil of Ylang ylang and a floral extract from  Citronella Grass which contains the scented substance.

Mother's  Fragrances Essences are very concentrated. One drop is enough to last  for many hours, the exact time depending on the individual. These  fragrances can be placed on the skin and clothing, and used to scent  bath water and massage oils. Our essences reveal their fullest fragrance  when applied to the skin. The best fragrance will emerge about one hour  after application.

​Oils:  Composed of pure ingredients from natural (essential) oils. Essential  oils extracted from flowers are often priceless (you often need hundreds  of kilos of flowers to get one kilo of essential oil). Because we now  know which fragrance components consist of rose oil or jasmine oil, we  can also combine these oils with the same fragrance components from  cheaper oils, such as citronella and lemongrass oil or palmarosa oil.  This allows us to make natural fragrance oils for an acceptable price  that can hardly be distinguished from the original flower oils.

Honesty  and high-quality fragrance oils that do not contain alcohol and are not  diluted with vegetable oils (such as sesame or coconut oil). The scent  oils are powerful in scent due to the concentration and economical to  use. The fragrance oils are not intended for consumption. An alternative  to diffusion for any aromatherapy use for these oils, you can also use  on fragrance stones, wood, and all kinds of air fresheners. Be careful  when using on textile, since the dark oils can leave stains.
