Sažetak
Health tourism has deep roots both in the Republic of Croatia and in the world. It develops quickly and in a step with trends in the tourism market. It is divided into three categories: health tourism, medical tourism, and wellness tourism. Each subcategory is specific in its action and develops according to the needs of the tourist market. This paper examines the knowledge of aromatherapy and aroma cosmetics on the tourist market. It also examines the potential of natural cosmetics as a new tourism trend in the Republic of Croatia. The methods used are quantitative methods with survey research and methods of descriptors and analyses. The research paper aims to find out if there is a potential for natural cosmetics on the market, can natural cosmetics in the future replace the commercial, and learn the respondents' opinions and attitudes about natural cosmetics. The paper has obtained certain conclusions about the trend of natural cosmetics on the tourist market, important for further developing aromatherapy as an integral part of the tourism offer.
