The global trade in essential oils, perfumes, cosmetics, and toiletries was worth just under US$112 billion in 2014.
That year, Europe alone imported 89,000 metric tons of essential oils, 40,000 metric tons of plant extracts, and 194,000 metric tons of raw plant material for the cosmetics
trade, worth around 2.5 billion euros. It is estimated that over 70% of the European trade volume in medicinal and aromatic plants comes from wild collection.
