The essential oils from Citrus fruits are what is called cold-pressed. The oils are contained in spores in the rinds of the fruits. The rinds are run through machines that have spikes to pierce the spores and release the oils.
Are essential oils and home fragrance oil the same thing?
The simple answer is no. Essential oils, as long as they are 100% pure, are potent plant extracts with no chemical additives. They are for much more than just making a room smell nice. In fact they have been used as medicines for over 6000 years. A "home fragrance" is most likely a chemically derived smell used simply to make the air smell good. I'd recommend using essential oils with a cold air diffuser or humidifier for making your home smell nice.
Can essential oil go in a vaporizer?
Yes it can. Any device that puts the molecules into the air can be used such as humidifier, vaporizer, diffuser...etc. Most people don't recommend putting the essential oils into the humidifier or vaporizer because it can clog the filter on the machine, however I do it when a family member is sick and mine still works fine.

Where did essential oils come from?
Essential oils consist of oil-soluble volatiles (volatiles being readily-noticed flavors or fragrances of food or flowers). There are two types of essential oils: Distilled oil: Volatiles from the product are stripped away, usually by steam injection, then allowed to recondense, thus forming an oil. Cold-Pressed oil: Essential oil that is derived from a product with no heat or steam applied; pressure or centrifuging is typically used. Cold pressed oils tend to have a "truer" flavor for certain oils that may be easily damaged by heat (e.g., citrus).
