The Reopening
Customer reviews of Ananda Apothecary before and after its 2026 reopening.
Ananda Apothecary closed in 2022.
For four years, there was no Ananda.
It reopened in March 2026, with no advertising spend, to a waiting audience.
What happened when we reopened:
“This news almost brings tears to my eyes. I am so grateful that you are going to get this going again.”
Paulette
“I never found another EO supplier I trusted. What great news!”
Tess
“In my view, Ananda was in the top two companies. I preferred Ananda for many reasons — and I still do. Welcome back.”
D.K.
“Quality in the oils and trust in the company is something I’ve been missing for a long time.”
Melanie
“So happy that you are continuing to continue.”
Linda
“I am so happy for you and for your desire to resume Ananda.”

From the Spring 2026 Cabinet
“I ordered Light Shield for the first time and the effects were immediate. I’ve been needing to clear my field often, and just passing the bottle under my nose disperses energies I pick up, or my own negative thoughts. I feel more clear, centered, and present. Thank you for bringing your wonderful products back.”
A. LaPorta
“The Athlete Blend — my mother put it on her elbow and within seconds her body was going ‘Ahhh’ as in relief. So thank you, Anita, for this.”
Grace
“Thank you so much for having my favorite Patchouli as one of your first oils offered for sale.”
D. Jock
“Thank you Anita and Anthony for these beautiful Notes in Medicine. So excited to be part of Ananda’s return.”
K. Awad
“Have loved Ananda’s pure essential oils for so, so long. Hoping Frankincense happens soon.”

“Thank you for continuing this wonderful legacy.”
Carolyn S.
“I love Ananda essential oil. I have bought many of your essential oils before.”

“So glad to see you back.”

A Note on Pace
We build within the limits of the materials.
Curation does not scale. The work remains the same — sourced carefully, evaluated rigorously, and released only when ready.
The pace is deliberate. The standard is fixed.
