Lavender Sachets made in China
When I first read the product description and looked at the package presentation from the Seller, especially the mention of French MANE essential oil, I had the impression that this product was manufactured in France. When I received my 2 packets, I was surprised by the scent of the sachets which is pungent . This made me wonder if synthetic floral oils were used instead of natural floral ones. A customer review posted by Sue mentioned she smelt a chemical odour . Lastly, the most unexpected discovery was , written in fine print at back of these sachet packages were the wordings " made in CHINA " I have nothing against products made in China if consumers are given the genuine thing but where I come from, we have read in the past too many bad press of fraudulent claims by manufacturers of products from China .. I shall not be re-ordering this item .
UPDATE ON THE ABOVE REVIEW of April 12, 2017
When the above review appeared on Amazon, the seller PeBeauty contacted me to apologize for the product not meeting up with my expectations and to give me the reasons why. Their supplier had changed the proportion mix of essential oils in the formula which resulted in the pungent scent. This problem has since been corrected. To prove that corrective measures had been taken PeBeauty sent me 2 packets of the reformulated Rose Cottage Sachets for my comments . The scent is definitely much improved . The uses of these scented sachets in a home are many and as gifts they will be much appreciated . I applaud this Seller for taking negative comments about their products in such a
positive, constructive manner. Their attitude shows that they are genuine in wanting to improve quality of their products for their customers.
For these reasons I am now changing my grading from 2 Stars to 5 Stars.
