It is projected to reach USD 21.54 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 8.1% during the forecast period (2023-2031).” As hectic lifestyles and schedules become more common, people turn to therapies that relieve stress and promote relaxation.

Over the past ten years, consumers have become pickier in how they use personal care products. Despite the fact that there are many products on the market that are similar to one another, superior quality and aggressive pricing will boost customer satisfaction and brand loyalty. Market expansion is anticipated to benefit from rising research and development spending on more effective goods, services, processes, and technologies. Aromatherapy is now more widely available to the general public thanks to the hospitality and tourism industries’ strong growth incentives. This pattern has helped the market for ethereal oils grow, along with the increased use of natural active ingredients in pharmaceutical and cosmetic formulations.
