Unlock the science-and soul-of aromatherapy.
In Chemistry Essential Oils, master aromatherapist and educator KG Stiles distills over 40 years of experience into a clear, accessible guide to understanding the chemical foundations of essential oils-and how to use them with confidence.
What You'll Discover

Why This Book Matters
Chemistry is the foundation of aromatherapy.
Every essential oil is composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen-organized into distinct chemical families that determine how an oil behaves in the body, mind, and energy field.
When you understand these patterns, you move beyond intuition alone and gain the ability to:
✔ Choose oils with precision
✔ Create targeted blends for specific conditions
✔ Work safely and effectively
✔ Deepen your confidence as a practitioner
A Trusted Quick Reference
This guide is designed for both students and experienced practitioners as a go-to reference for:
- Blending strategies
- Therapeutic applications
- Chemical-based oil selection
- Holistic and energetic aromatherapy
Whether you're just beginning or refining your expertise, this guide gives you the scientific clarity and intuitive insight needed to work with essential oils at a deeper level.
Expert Praise:
I highly recommend Chemistry Essential Oils to all who are interested in holistic healing and the way that aromatherapy can be used as an effective mind-body technique.
-John L. Turner, MD
