It seems she saw essential oils floating on the surface of the water pools where rose petals floated day in day out. She asked some slaves to collect that oily liquid and began to make perfumes for the other ladies of the harem. And so the essential oil and perfume industry was born in the Indian subcontinent. Sherlock Holmes is going to raise an eyebrow at this story. "My dear Watson, this story is a figment of the Eastern imagination. Unless of course we supposed the rooms to be so boiling hot that the steeped petals released their essential oils. Or the room temperature of those closed up areas was so high that steam condensed to get Rosewater and Rose oil. And one knows that the art of distilling and extracting essential oils has been known to the wise men and women of the East and of the best for millenniums. They have been using these essential oils for aromatherapy, for massage oils, for tinctures, lotions, ointments, decoctions and any other beauty or herbal remedies. So I will take this Rose oil, and the Empress story with a pinch of salt. QED. Where is my violin?" Since ancient times, human beings understood that plants had something in them, which could be used, through extraction. This magic product was oils. There are two types of essential oils obtained from plants - volatile oils and fixed oils.
