Why are essential oils cheap on Thursday?

This essential oil is cheaper because there are more raw materials. And rare and precious essential oils are mainly too rare. In addition, essential oils are expensive and cheap mainly for the following reasons:

First, lavender VS rose:

The same price is 10ml, the price of lavender essential oil is generally 100-300, and that of roses is generally above 1000. The price of different kinds of essential oils is different, but this price is determined according to its output and the difficulty of extraction, not just expensive. Different plant essential oils have different effects on people's body and mind. Many essential oils can also be mixed together as a compound to achieve the mixing effect.

Second, lavender VS lavender:

Lavender essential oil, as the most common essential oil, ranges from 40-50 on Taobao to 400-500 on professional channels, and the price gap is very large. The difference is mainly in the quality of essential oil. Almost all unilateral essential oils in China are "blended", not pure unilateral essential oils, just like blending liquor. The price in pure essential oils will not be cheap, because the cost of imported raw materials is there! But even in pure essential oils, there is still a big gap in price. For example, the same lavender essential oil has many grades of raw materials, from medical grade-edible grade-daily chemical grade-industrial grade, which meet different needs in turn. However, there are only about 30 varieties of lavender in the world, among which the best is true lavender (lavender with narrow leaves), and the common ones are headed lavender, spiced lavender and striking lavender.

In addition, it is also divided into growth altitude. Lavender in highland (Provence is 600-800 meters above sea level, only real lavender can grow at this height) is more expensive, and lavender below 600 meters above sea level is generally cheaper.
