Rapid increase in the number of people adopting self-medication remedies for the common cold and pain is expected to further stimulate the demand for consumables. Rising number of clinical aromatherapy programs will continue to drive the demand and supply of consumables in the aromatherapy market owing to increasing consumer need for attaining natural measures.

Carrier oils are sourced usually from fatty parts of the plants whereas essential oils are sourced from the non-fatty areas and aromatic portion of the plants. Carrier oils do not hold potency, which helps in eliminating skin irritations or burns when applied directly. However, essential oils are highly potent and holds high probability of burns with severe skin irritation.
