Salvatore has been teaching aromatherapy since 1988. He is often called upon to speak at international conferences about aromatherapy, running a holistic and ethical business and what it means to go natural and organic.

Salvatore is the author of Aromatree in which he outlines a new holistic model for teaching and understanding aromatherapy. The Aromatree identifies the relationships that exist between the individual essential oils and the different parts of a plant such as leaves, roots, resin, wood, fruits, seed or flowers. He has also recently published Aromatherapy and Chakras, which examines the traditional healing practices and philosophies based on the chakra system, and how essential oils can be integrated into this holistic model.

In 1991, Salvatore created Perfect Potion. Perfect Potion’s purpose is to naturally enhance people’s lives through certified organic aromatherapy products, natural skin care and essential oils. Perfect Potion has been regarded by government and industry regulators as having established the benchmark for aromatherapy products in Australia.

Perfect Potion has enabled Salvatore to see his lifelong dreams come true – expressing creativity by creating a diverse range of holistic products and by creating innovative education programs to empower people to take responsibility of their wellbeing through natural means such as aromatherapy..

He shares his passion for the world, natural therapies and aromatherapy with his wife, Carolyn Stubbin, his beagle Lucy and cat, Abbey.
