What the allowance actually buys
One allowance here buys 106,480 EXP, the best on the Lv 45 Alchemist tradecraft rung — matched exactly by 1 other leve of the 6 there, with the rest trailing at 95,350 EXP or less.
Across that rung the return runs from 51,270 EXP to 106,480 EXP per allowance — 4 distinct figures spanning 108%, so the wrong pick leaves 55,210 EXP of the allowance unspent.
On whether to wait: the best Lv 50 Alchemist tradecraft leve returns 334,080 EXP per allowance, 214% more than the best on this rung, while the Lv 40 rung behind tops out at 94,280 EXP.
At Lv 45 this data holds 52 leves paying EXP across 2 categories: the 48 Tradecraft ones average 98,250 EXP per allowance, the 4 Fieldcraft ones 733,026 EXP, which puts this leve 8% above its own category's average.
Gil ranks it differently: 484 gil per allowance is 4th of 6 on the same rung against 1st on EXP, with the best there paying 557 gil.
Potent Poisoning Potion ×3 is a Lv 47 Alchemist recipe, 2 steps deep through 1 intermediate, costing 4 units of raw material and 12 crystals.
Handing that in returns 26,620 EXP and 121 gil for every unit of raw material the order swallows.
