What Is An Essential Oil Blend
An essential oil blend are pure, genuine essential oils that are distilled from plants including flowers, roots, herbs, and more; (usually the same botanical family), these oils are not diluted with carrier oils
There are four classifications for blending essential oils. The following information explains the characteristics of each classification, the order in which they should be added to the blend, and the amount of each type of oil as a percentage of the blend. Blending essential oils is an art and requires certification (training) and experimentation
The Personifier (1-5% of the blend) essential oils have very sharp, strong and long-lasting fragrances. They also have dominant properties with strong therapeutic action
The Enhancer (50-80% of the blend) essential oil should be the predominant essential oil as it serves to enhance the properties of the other essential oils in the blend. Its fragrance is not as sharp as the personifiers and is usually of a shorter duration
The Equalizer (10-15% of the blend) essential oils create balance and synergy among the essential oils contained in the blend. Their fragrance is also not as sharp as the personifier and is of a shorter duration
The Modifier (5-8% of the blend) essential oils have a mild and short fragrance. These essential oils add harmony to the blend
