If you use essential oils regularly — whether for candle making, massage therapy, diffusers, skincare, or reselling — there’s one clear way to boost your profit margins and simplify your supply chain: buying wholesale essential oils.
In this post, we’ll break down the true cost difference, how buying in bulk benefits your business, and what to look for when choosing a wholesale supplier in the UK.
The Real Cost of Small Bottles
Let’s say you’re buying Lavender Essential Oil in 10ml bottles for £4.99. That works out to nearly £500 per litre — even more if you’re paying retail prices through third-party sellers.
Now compare that to purchasing a 1kg bottle of wholesale oil at £50–£150 per kg (depending on the oil). That’s a potential saving of hundreds of pounds per oil — and the difference adds up fast when you use oils daily or in production.
Top 5 Reasons to Buy Essential Oils Wholesale
1. Better Value Per Drop
Buying 1kg bottles means you pay far less per ml. The more you use, the more you save.
2. Avoid Running Out
No more last-minute dashes to restock. Wholesale quantities help you maintain production and fulfil customer orders without delay.
3. Consistent Scent Quality
Using the same batch or supplier ensures consistency across your product line — especially important for candles, skincare and blends.
4. Bulk Planning = Bigger Profits
When you plan ahead and buy your top sellers in bulk, your cost per unit drops and your pricing becomes more flexible.
5. Trusted UK Supply
At Mood Essential Oils, all oils are packed fresh to order in the UK, so you know exactly what you're getting — no middlemen, no international delays.

Small Brand? Wholesale Still Makes Sense.
