Heads Up You Patchouli Lovers…..
We use patchouli essential oil in our Lavender Patchouli and Patchouli Vanilla soap.
Because of the extremely high cost this essential oil now commands we will not be purchasing more until the price becomes more reasonable. It would simply outprice our products that have it as an ingredient. At this moment it will not affect our Imara collection but it may in the future. If it does then this line will be on hold as well.
It is unclear why patchouli prices are so high. Some speculate that weather and other conditions in Indonesia have decimated the crop..others say that this is just market fluctuations. We will be keeping a sharp eye on the pricing and as soon as it comes down to a reasonable level we will stock up.
We do still have a supply of patchouli essential oil (and related soap) in stock but once its gone there will be no more Lavender Patchouli or Patchouli Vanilla soap until prices come down to a reasonable level.
