Essential oils define the soul of a luxury candle. At Glimmer Ceylon, we use only natural, high quality essential oils to create fragrances that are pure, serene, and therapeutically powerful.
This guide explores what essential oils are, how they are made, and why they are the foundation of premium natural candles.
What Are Essential Oils?
Essential oils are highly concentrated extracts taken from:
Flowers (lavender, jasmine, rose)
Leaves (eucalyptus, peppermint)
Fruits (lemon, bergamot)
Woods and resins (cedarwood, sandalwood)
These oils contain the plant’s aromatic compounds and therapeutic benefits.
How Essential Oils Are Extracted
1. Steam Distillation
The most common and pure method.
2. Cold Pressing
Used mainly for citrus fruits.
3. CO₂ Extraction
Premium, clean, and highly potent.
Each method ensures the aromatic integrity of the plant.
