Essential oil percentage

This is a basic understanding of essential and fragrant oil.
We will talk about Rose oil. There is much information about it on line and printed so misinformation can be found and discounted easily.  First you must know that there are no rules regarding the name or description of a fragrance. Not like food. If you wish to know how much water is in your orange juice, it is available. Yes about 95%. What is the other 5% ? It is not easy to find out. How about Milk, how much water is in it?
With Rose oil it is easy. The base chemical’s are Citronellol and Geraniol  and Nerol. Yes these are the chemical names of Rose oil there are about 50 chemicals in the oil. The percentage will very by region. Rose Otto is water distilled. Rose Absolute is solvent extracted. What solvent? Well there are 2 most popular solvents for fragrance. Dipropyline glycol or DPG and Isopropyl Misstate or IPM. The Isopropyl is used mostly for liquid soap and body lotion. It is mostly an alcohol but freezes at about 40 degrees. This makes it unusable in cold weather. DPG is used mostly for fragrances as it helps prevent the oils from being absorbed through the skin and is safe. There are no rules on names, quality or percentage for any fragrances.
One company got a copyright for the name Therapeutic Grade. It is just a name and has nothing to do with the quality of the oil. Today in 2022 these numbers are true for most essential oils. The cost of one ounce of Rose absolute is about $1200. The percentage of rose is about 50% and solvent 50%.The pure rose does not smell very good and must be diluted just to give a fragrance. A good quality Rose essential oil on the open market is about 5% oil in the DPG base. This costs about $40 an ounce. A good quality fragrance oil with the rose chemicals in it is about $5 an ounce.
Now a chemist like me can blend these to get a very agreeable fragrance for a fair price. Let’s not forget about stabilizers. These are more chemicals that can be added to the fragrance to make the fragrance last longer. I would never add these to my products.
This has been my hobby for many years.  Russ
