Essential oils are also known as volatile oils, ethereal oils, aetherolea, or simply as the oil of the plant from which they were extracted, such as oil of clove.
Uleiurile esențiale sunt, de asemenea, cunoscute sub numele de uleiuri volatile, uleiuri eterice sau pur și simplu ca „ulei de” planta din care au fost extrase, cum ar fi uleiul de cuișoare.
