soapswirl, I'll take a stab at what I think Girlishcharm means.The way I read it is that she uses "synthetic" to refer to man-made nature-identical items. For instance, high-quality ultramarine powder and ground lapis lazuli are chemically identical, but one was created by man in a lab and other other was ground from expensive stones from the ground.On the other hand, (if I'm interpreting her correctly), "artificial" would be something that is not nature-identical. Strawberry FO, for instance. There is no strawberry EO, therefore there is nothing for strawberry FO to be nature-identical to.
