Plant extracts are usually solvent extracted and essential oils distilled but things are getting a bit blurred of late with both being referred to as plant extracts. For a good accurate guide as to what is an essential oil written by an Industry (raw aromatic materials) expert go to http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~nodice/ and look at the Essential Oil pages.
