Frequently Asked Questions

Ordering and minimums

What is the minimum order quantity?

+

Bulk wholesale starts at 5 L for most essential oils and 5 kg for carrier oils. Trade orders start at 12 units per SKU. White label runs start at 500 units. Absolutes and rose Otto are supplied from 0.5 kg because they are distilled in small batches.

Can I buy a sample first?

+

Yes. Ask for 5-10 ml samples in the quote form and we will send them so you can run your own sensory panel or GC/MS before ordering drums.

How long does an order take?

+

Bulk orders ship in 7-14 days, trade orders in 3-5 days, and white label runs in 21 days. Lead time is confirmed with the quote against live batch availability.

Which payment terms do you offer?

+

First orders are paid against a proforma invoice. Verified trade and distributor accounts qualify for NET 30 terms.

Products and quality

Are your essential oils pure?

+

Yes. Every batch is screened by GC/MS to confirm botanical identity and composition, and the certificate of analysis for the lot is supplied with the shipment.

What does the certificate of analysis contain?

+

The batch-specific analytical result - assay, density, refractive index and optical rotation - plus the botanical identity confirmation. The full chromatogram is available on request.

Are the materials suitable for EU cosmetics?

+

Yes. Each material carries an IFRA conformity statement with the use limit for your product category, and allergen information for EU cosmetic labelling.

Which materials are IFRA restricted?

+

Oakmoss absolute, citral, eugenol and eugenol-bearing materials such as basil and clove carry category limits. The restriction and the applicable use level appear on each product page.

Shipping and terms

Where do you ship?

+

Across the EU, with free shipping on retail orders over EUR 75. Germany and France are the fastest routes. For bulk we quote DAP and CIF terms by volume and destination.

How are bulk orders packaged?

+

In 5 L drums as standard, with larger steel drums and flexitanks for full-pallet volumes. Retail formats are 10 ml to 1 L amber glass.

Do you ship outside the EU?

+

Yes, on request. Send the destination country in the quote form and we will confirm freight, duties and lead time.

Blends and the AI sommelier

How does the AI Sommelier work?

+

You choose a mood, an occasion and an intensity. It returns a formula with the percentage of each oil and a dilution rate for the intended use. Every oil it names links to its own specification page.

Can I get a custom formula for my brand?

+

Yes. From 500 units we develop a formula with our perfumery team, produce a sample for approval, then run the production with your labels.

How should I store essential oils?

+

Sealed, upright and away from light and heat, at 15-25 C. Use opened bottles within about 12 months, and replace the oil if the aroma flattens or the colour darkens.
