Purchasing essential oils

Where does one purchase good, quality essential oils? I have read about the uses of different oils, but I have no idea where I can buy them.

Been racking my brains. :D Not always a good thing ;)

Okay. The place where you purchase your "therapeutic" grade essential oils should be able to back their mouth up. Meaning, there should be MSDS sheets for several, and if you contact them they should be able to tell you where and how the essential oil was produced. Including pressure and temperature!

This site is an excellent example. I know these are pure and I do know the quality so I am going to use this site as a reference. The President of the college I went to her husband owns this part of the area! The actual essential oils is "his" thing. Now these folks are serious including every year they hold classes in Greece on aroma. AND sometimes classes in France on distilling. One of those dream classes I've always wanted to attend. Getting off track here.

Anyway doesn't mean you have to buy from here. But look over the site, check all the info and even give him an email asking, "how do I know your essential oils are pure and if I go elsewhere for something you are out of stock on...how do I find out if they are selling pure" use this to look at other sites.
Natural Essential Oils - The Essential Oil Company

Oh and this guy, is a hoot to read. He used to have FAR more info, but it started getting copied and stolen. Such a shame. read about him. What makes most aromatherapists cringe is the containers he uses. i found it interesting and wish he still had his info up. What a shame. Anyway, I cringed when I read about the containers too. I did order from him a few times. I saw no difference, however, I still could swear a hint of wrong container. LOL. I don't know may have been my imagination.
