It is the Nature of our Business

Each Lilac Season, throughout the months of May and June, we produce a finite amount of Lilac Enfleurage products. Most of our Lilac Enfleurage products are fully committed to orders by September of the same year. After September 30th you may pre-order for next year and this way will be most certain to receive your Lilac Enfleurage.
