According to Patricia Davis, in Aromatherapy: An A-Z, maceration of plants pre-dates the process of extracting essential oils. Ancient civilizations such as Israelites simply stood jars of plant material out in the sun to macerate which would take a lot of time and material.
This is what essential oils were thousands of years ago. There was no distillation process then, and it was a highly skilled trade and artistry to create these oils.
Infused, or macerated, oils hold similar medicinal properties to those distilled to produce an essential oil; however, some plants can be macerated that do not produce an essential oil too because they are too large to be distilled into Essential oil compounds. So in order to get some plant medicinal properties, this would be a great process to do with that type of plant.
The aromas are strong and sometimes lighter than the essential oil but the essential oil properties are still there. Very powerful compound that heals and works and has the same amazing shelf life. These oils last just as long and at the same time, they bring with them their own carrier oils that can be used right away without having to take the time to mix essential oils with a carrier oil. It is already done for you.
