An oil is "essential" in the sense that it carries a distinctive scent, or essence, of the plant. Essential oils do not as a group need to have any specific chemical properties in common, beyond conveying characteristic fragrances.

Refresher oils are usually a mixture of different fragrances and is not limited to a specific fragrance, however both are concentrated, hydrophobic liquids containing volatile aroma compounds from plants.
