Scritti dall'azienda
Abbey Essentials is a UK-based family business operating since 1993. Founded in Norwich, the business grew from early beginnings supplying essential oils and botanical extracts to wellness enthusiasts and retailers, guided from the outset by a focus on careful sourcing, consistent standards and a commitment to quality over mass-produced or low-cost volume. The brand was shaped by an interest in the long history of botanical remedies and traditional preparations once used in abbeys and monasteries, an influence that continues to inform our considered approach to product development and supply. Our range includes essential and fragrance oils, absolutes, floral waters, creams and body care products, alongside regularly refreshed seasonal collections and gift sets. We prioritise ethical and sustainable practices, offering vegan, cruelty-free and, where possible, certified-organic products. All products are made or supplied in compliance with UK and EU cosmetic regulations. Alongside serving retail customers worldwide, we also support independent brands, spas, salons and start-ups through wholesale supply, private-label and white-label development, low minimum order quantities and bespoke formulation services. We place strong emphasis on product quality and approachable customer service. All enquiries are handled directly by our team, with genuine, human responses rather than automated replies. This personal approach allows us to offer thoughtful guidance, take responsibility for the advice we give, and build long-term relationships grounded in trust, continuity and a genuine human touch.

Thanks so much for your patience. We know delayed parcels are frustrating and with Royal Mail struggling in some areas recently, we were keen to get your order replaced quickly. I'm really glad to hear everything arrived safely in the end (and that you loved the oils too) :)

Thank you for your kind review.
We’re really pleased to hear you appreciated the support you received, and that everything was sorted nice and quickly! :)
We try hard to keep our customer service human, helpful and personal, rather than handing it all over to automated AI agents.
Employing real people can make things a little slower from time to time, but reviews like this and genuine customer interactions are exactly why we believe it is worth it.

Thank you for your lovely review.
I'm really pleased to hear the product is helping with your muscle and joint pain.
We dispatch all orders placed by 3pm on the same working day, using Royal Mail Tracked 48 as standard. Royal Mail lists this as a delivery aim rather than a guaranteed service, so unfortunately some parcels can take a little longer than expected and this is outside our direct control :(
I'm glad it arrived safely, and we hope you continue to enjoy using it.

Excellent Chamomile Cream and Arnica Gel
My little tins of Chamomile Cream and Arnica Gel arrived very quickly and are such good quality and value. This is my second order of the Chamomile Cream and I find it helps soothe and prevent the return of itchy eczema around my eyes. The consistency is just right so it has never slipped from my lids into the eyes.

Thank you for your feedback, we really appreciate it.
We do our best to supply only high quality essential oils, so we only source from suppliers we know and trust. This can sometimes mean items are low in stock or temporarily out of stock, as we choose to wait for a batch that meets our standards rather than replace it with unknown supply.
Thanks again, and glad you’re happy with the hyssop 😊

poor products and customer service
I am a registered aromatherapist and recently ordered two pure essential oils (Frankincense and Palo Santo) through your website. However, after receiving them, I found that the aromas do not match those of the same essential oils I have previously used.
I have experience with multiple brands of pure Frankincense and Palo Santo essential oils, and the products I received from your company smell significantly different. I also double-checked my order and the bottles to ensure that I had ordered pure essential oils rather than fragrance oils.
As someone who is highly sensitive to aroma and committed to using high-quality products for my clients, I was disappointed. Based on my professional experience, these oils appear more artificial than pure, and therefore I am unable to use them in my practice.
I have emailed your company several days ago to request a refund but have not yet received a response. This has resulted in a very poor shopping experience. I will not buy this brand again.
-----------------------
Since I was unable to reply directly to the Reply from Abbey Essentials under Trustpilot, I am responding here instead.
I am a certified aromatherapist and have experience with many reputable natural essential oil brands. I am able to distinguish between synthetic/fragrance products and genuinely pure essential oils. I hope you will take product quality seriously, so that consumers can truly enjoy the benefits of natural essential oils.
In my email, I did not request a refund while keeping the products. However, to date, I have not received any response regarding the refund process or arrangements from the company by replying my email. I am of course willing to return the oils if required—there is no reason for me to keep products of unsatisfactory quality that I cannot use.
Fortunately, I only purchased two bottles, so the cost is not significant. I treat it as a cost of testing a new brand. Ultimately, customers will make their own fair judgment.

Thank you for your review.
We take feedback seriously, but it is important to clarify the facts for transparency.
Regarding the oils supplied:
The Palo Santo supplied is 100% pure Bursera graveolens, which is the correct botanical source. The scent many people associate with palo santo typically comes from burning the wood, which creates smoky and toasted notes through combustion. These notes are not present in a steam-distilled essential oil, so a pure oil will naturally smell cleaner, brighter, and more citrus-wood based.
In this case, the concern raised was that the aroma did not match another product previously used, without further detail or an attempt to clarify the difference. A comparison to a different supplier or batch is not, on its own, a valid basis to conclude that an oil is artificial or not pure.
In practice, when a product is described as “not smelling like palo santo”, it is often being compared to the smell of burning sticks, to fragrance oils designed to be stronger and more smoky, or to blended products where palo santo is combined with other resins, woods, or synthetics to create a richer and more “ritual-like” profile. Differences between batches or suppliers are also commonly misinterpreted as a fault, when in reality they reflect natural variation.
The Frankincense supplied is single origin Boswellia carterii, which is widely used species. This variety has a fresh, light resinous aroma with subtle citrus and balsamic notes, and is naturally more “airy” than the deeper scent associated with burnt resin. As with palo santo, comparisons are often made against incense or blended/synthethic products that have a richer, smoky profile created through formulation or heat (combustion or pyrolysis method), which is not achievable in a genuine, unaltered steam-distilled essential oil.
It is also important to note that genuine essential oils vary from batch to batch due to natural factors. These include the wood source, whether fallen and aged or more recently harvested, the degree of ageing which affects aromatic development, geographic origin where soil and climate influence chemistry, and distillation parameters such as temperature, duration, and pressure. This variability is inherent in natural products.
Consistency of scent is not expected in genuine essential oils, as natural variation between batches is part of their nature. Products that smell identical every time are typically formulated or synthetic rather than pure, single-origin oils.
We are always open to reviewing genuine product concerns.
In this case, the request was for a refund while retaining the products, which falls outside our Refund & Returns policy. If the products are not suitable, they can be returned in accordance with our returns policy available on our website. Once returned, we are happy to process a refund, even where the product is simply not to your preference.
We remain available to review any concerns through the appropriate process :)
Kind regards,

Thank you for your follow-up.
To clarify a few points, your original message did request a refund without confirming a return of the products. As outlined in our Refund and Returns policy, a refund is processed once items are returned. This is standard practice and has not been refused in your case.
We did respond with guidance on how to proceed. If this has not been received, please check your spam folder for messages from our support email. We remain available and are happy to arrange the return and refund in line with our policy.
Both oils supplied are 100% pure, single origin essential oils. Differences in aroma compared to other products are not on their own evidence of a product being synthetic, as natural variation in scent is normal.
We stand by the authenticity of our oils. However, if they are not suitable for your needs, you are welcome to return them and a refund will be processed promptly once received.
Kind regards,
Abbey Essentials

In the case Use Myrtle for poetry writing myrtle
In the case of myrtle, I chose Abbey because, unlike other companies, they use steam distillation to extract the essential oil from the flowers, allowing me to experience the pure floral scent of myrtle.
The reason for this is that, while reading the Bible story about angels meeting a prophet under a myrtle tree, I decided to use the scent of myrtle as the theme for a poem I wrote—my first in 30 years. That is why I ended up purchasing the myrtle.

Nice selection of special essential oils
I bought a few essential oils from here. There wasn't any problem with the delivery. Label seems long lasting, so the print stay on it. Products seems good quality and I was able to buy special essential oil what you can't reach elsewhere.

Mother’s Day save!
They were so lovely, quality and affordable! I wanted one of their products in time for Mother’s Day and I had left it a little tight to time! I emailed them asking them to send it as quick as they could, replied that same day saying that it will be sent the same day and luckily arrived the day before! Life savers!
