Scented oils, also known as essential oils, are concentrated plant extracts that capture the natural fragrance and properties of various plants. They are commonly used in aromatherapy, a practice that promotes physical and emotional well-being through the inhalation of these pleasant scents. Scented oils can be derived from flowers, leaves, bark, and other plant parts, and each type offers unique benefits. These oils can be used in various ways, including in diffusers, massage oils, or added to bathwater. Popular scented oils include lavender, peppermint, and eucalyptus, each known for its distinct aroma and therapeutic effects. Proper dilution is important when using scented oils on the skin to avoid irritation.
