Rosemary is generally thought of as inexpensive and plentiful, but such is not the case. Rather it is inexpensive and plentiful because it is one of the most adulterated essential oils on the market. Real Rosemary is moderate to expensive depending on country of origin; Spanish being moderate and French being expensive with producers in other parts of the world somewhere in-between. The so-called Moroccan is the least expensive, most plentiful and most often resembles adulterated Rosemary.

There are two basic reasons authentic Rosemary is costly:

1. Much of it is a wildcrafted herb making harvest more labor intensive.

2. The yield of oil from plant material is only 0.35% to 0.85%. In other words, about 1/2 pounds of oil for 100 pounds of plant material.

The percentages of constituents found in Rosemary essential oil vary over a wide range depending on the usual environmental but more specifically country of origin. Spanish, Moroccan, French, and Tunisian represent four basic variations in percentages of constituents. Chemotypes are cineol, camphor and verbenone. They all share the same constituents even if just trace amounts. The Rosemary (CT) verbenone is thought to be the highest quality Rosemary but any real Rosemary with less than 25% 1,8-cineol should have at least 0.5%-5% verbenone content. Verbenone is a ketone found in Rosemary from 0.5 to 15%. It is one of the important indicator of true Rosemary.

True Rosemary with a high verbenone content is usually used as a starting material to which other oils, isolates and "nature identical" synthetics are added. To this date verbenone is not produced on any scale by a fragrance chemical manufacturer, which makes it less likely that it would be used to adulterate Rosemary. Constituents in Rosemary such as alpha pinene, myrcene, cineol, and camphor can be added as isolates from other essential oils or fragrance materials, so the percentages of those compounds can not be used as markers of authenticity. Besides, their percentages vary over a fairly wide range even in real Rosemary due to botanical variations, growing environment and production variations. Rosemary with over 40% cineol could indicate adulteration with Eucalyptus.

  Rosemary Oil

Having recieved the goods over a year ago, I figured I'd rush right in and make a comment. The products arrived in perfect condition..I also got eucaliptis (sp) oil in the same shipment. The oils are of top quality, as far as I can determine...and they smell sooooo good. I use them to smarten me up....not sure if it's working, but they do clear a person's head....thanks, and when I need more you'll be the people I go to...
