Re: Your definition of 'natural' and/or 'botanical' perfumery
I think I fall under the same category, as well. I would be a "vegetarian" sort - I'm mainly concerned with where it began, rather than how it was treated on the way there. (Wow, that sounds oddly callous.)
For instance, while absolute extraction isn't necessarily an all-natural process, the beginning and end product are still molecularly complex enough to qualify as naturals to me. Does that make sense?
