1. Does thickness /thinness of the oil affect the quality/scent intensity of the oil?
No. Thickness or thinness has absolutely nothing to do with oil quality or scent intensity. The notion that thicker oil is synonymous with more intensely scented oil is a misconception. Only a handful of oils are thick, while most oils have a thin consistency.
2. Why do many competitors/vendors sell oils very inexpensively, while our prices are higher than most?
3. Why does the color of oil seem to change from time to time?
Depending on the season, oils will differ in color because of the crop season; since most oils have natural ingredients, the time of year they are created will have bearing on the color.
4. What is the shelf life of our oils?
Since our oils do not contain any alcohol or water, the problem of evaporation does not exist. As long as the oils are kept away from extreme heat and sunlight, they will last an extremely long time. The only detail that may change is the color. Some oils even develop a deeper scent over time, which is called marrying or maturing.
There are different grades of oils-the cheaper the grade, the less expensive the oil. “Grade A” oils, which are the only oils we sell, are the finest quality oils to be found, thus they are a bit more expensive than lower grades. Therefore, the old adage holds: “You get what you pay for!”
5. Did you know that a scent cannot be Patented or copyrighted?
The courts have held that a scent is something that belongs to nature and not to any individual. Therefore, a manufacturer cannot prevent someone else from matching or improving an aroma in part or as a whole.
But the name and packaging can be copyrighted and thus prohibits anyone from using these features. As long as a disclaimer is presented explaining that the product is not the original perfume or cologne, it is one hundred percent legal to copy a scent.
This is why you must emphasize that it is a perfume oil version of a designer scent, followed by the words “inspired by” or “type”. It is also essential to include a disclaimer explaining that the name(s) are trademarked and belong to the original manufacturer.
