    Essence is whatever most sums up the heart and soul of something, its truest most indispensable qualities. The essence of Las Vegas is poker chips and dreams; the essence of Johnny Cash is black clothing and country music.

    Essence can be a physical detail, or, just as commonly, the abstract idea or meaning of something.

Essence can also mean the concentrate obtained from a flower or plant for flavoring.
