These are fine for aromatherapy, provided the blend of oils are suitable for your specific needs. When essential oils are adulterated, it means that something has been added to it. Whether it is suitable for aromatherapy or not will depend on what it has been adulterated with. For example, some costly essential oils (such as Rose) are often sold diluted / adulterated with Jojoba oil. This oil would still be suitable for aromatherapy. If the Rose essential oil was adulterated with synthetic 'fragrance' Rose oil, then it would not be suitable for aromatherapy because of the chemicals.
