Elemicin is sold as a flavoring and perfume ingredient. It's purchase is apparently not watched, unlike safrole.


I have not seen any place selling it in small quantities, only companies that sell business to business seem to stock it.


If venders carrying things like mimosa start carrying pure elemicin, it will probably get banned right away. I hope that doesn't start happening. Elemi oil has been sold openly for hundreds of years so I can't see that suddenly becoming illegal. Nutmeg oil has been abused for its hallucinogenic properties for ages and it still remains legal. But if myristicin and elemicin suddenly start appearing as pure compounds offered at head shops, then I'm sure things will change.


I imagine that pure elemicin is actually pretty cheap. The tech used to isolate elemicin from Elemi oil is simple enough anyone with distillation equipment can do it, and it can be done easily on an industrial scale.


I have to start looking around at some do it yourself perfume supply shops to see if I can find pure elemicin in small quantities. That would be nice.
