Aromatherapy Associates has been sharing the therapeutic powers of essential oils for over 35 years. The Brand was founded in 1985 by Geraldine Howard & Sue Beechey, therapists that had trained under the renowned aromatherapist Micheline Arcier, who can be traced back to the modern-day founders of aromatherapy. It was then that they experienced first-hand the powerfully positive effects of essential oils on our physical and emotional wellbeing.

As a Company we have a family culture and live by one of Geraldine’s beliefs: “It’s more than just a business, it’s a way of life”.

The brand is present in over 50 markets globally with Regional Sales offices in the UK, US and Hong Kong. Distribution is across Spa, Retail, Online Retailers, E-commerce and Distributor partners.

As aromatherapy experts, our vision has remained constant for a generation – sharing the power and therapeutic effects of natural essential oils. Our award-winning blends have gained recognition across the beauty world for their transformative effects on the mind, body and skin.

Expertly hand-blended in our London laboratory, our essential oils and unique active botanicals have created innovations in body and skincare.

We care deeply about the ingredients we use and how we deliver them to you. We take a mindful approach to the origins, workers wellbeing and certification of all our oils and botanicals, with a commitment to evolving our support for global community projects.

Our sustainability vision is an ongoing endeavour, along with our desire to create the very best aromatherapy products, so you can enjoy beautiful, glowing, healthy skin, free from harsh chemicals and unnecessary synthetics.

Code of best practice:

Act as an ambassador of a world-class brand and deliver our products and services in accordance with the Standard Operating Procedures to ensure customers receive the expected and desirable level of customer service through a sincere approach of professionalism, valuable parting of knowledgeable advice, unsurpassed quality of delivery and genuine attention to customer fulfilment and experience.
