Latest Market Information January 8, 2023
Davana was a delight for perfumers since the ketone content used to be in the range of 40-50%. It is now down to 30-40%. Farmers have been reluctant to produce davana oil. Small portions of land produce davana and the yield is very low. Constantly reducing quantities have led to an increase in the price of davana oil. The oil is mostly distilled based on confirmed orders. Last season saw a good harvest and the supply is stable.
