Comparison EO shopping

[Seragilo]

Hi There!

I am sure this has been posted before but I'm hoping to get a fresh take. When comparison shopping for EO I noticed a huge price difference between NDA, Voyageur, Canwax and Blue Saffire. With Blue Saffire coming out with the best prices....but so low they make me question their quality.

Any and all thoughts, reviews and suggestions appreciated.

Thanks in advance for you're help

Added thought: I am looking for Canadian companies, assuming they have the best shipping prices.

I haven't purchased from most of the stores you've listed, but I have many sources in which I buy my oils from. And it seems like most of the higher priced places have higher quality. This isn't always so and it might take trial and error to learn about each source.

I have used NDA and find most of their products to be of good quality. It's a good place to stock up on basics. However, they take a while to ship and I find their shipping overall to be lacking in choices and pricing.

I'm in the US but I know a lot of Canadian soapers and all of the companies you mention are reputable.

Sometimes you get what you pay for and sometimes you're just paying more. If I were making leave on products like lotions or perfume oils, I might spring for the higher price. But since lye is pretty unforgiving with respect to fragrance, I tend to look for the best price when shopping for EOs (assuming, of course, that the company has a good reputation and these do).

Hope this helps!
