7th November at 11.35am. Update. First, Hermitage Oils website is now closed for the rest of 2023. No more orders are being accepted and all countries have been removed from the website at checkout, to prevent orders from being placed whilst we are off work. Apologies if I sound like a broken record, but politely I have received so many emails asking about placing orders already. I am now putting an out of office message in place on the email and website contact page. As soon as all orders have been delivered - we are then properly off work for the rest of 2023. Sincerely, we need a proper break as the stress of this year has become too great. On a brighter note, the following SDS are now uploaded onto the website and available to clients by logging in to your account and going to the section titled SDS (assuming you have purchased the product) ... Blue Lotus Absolute, Bergamot Mint E.O, Clove Bud Absolute, Apple Liquid, Chamomile Roman E.O, Cognac Green Signature Gold E.O, Costus Root E.O, Eucalyptus Absolute, Cocoa Absolute Signature Gold, Geranium Chinese E.O, Frankincense Rivae E.O, Buddha Wood E.O and Cedarwood Himalayan E.O. The business handling the conversion still needs to hand over about 60 more SDS and as we receive them, they will be uploaded onto the website. Thank you, Adam : )
Adam Michael has this to say ” This absynthe essential oil is first steam distilled from the leaves and flowering tops and then molecular distilled. Arguably the finest material of its kind, artisan produced, and commonly known as wormwood or green ginger. The colour is lush marine blue-green due to a minute content of chamazulene. The smell is warm, sharp, dry-woody and herbaceous-green throughout, comparable to a cedar leaf and chamomile blue infusion. A unique note for perfumers, very hard to source in small quantities and a must for building distinguished gentleman scents and old school barber shop accords.”
Botanical Name: Artemisia absinthium
Origin: France
Safety Data: Absynthe essential oil contains thujone which is potentially dangerous to human beings. Use with great care. Not recommended for use in aromatherapy.

A challanging yet superlative material. Takes you back to crazy drinking nights, if you have experienced them… or, pairs extremelly well with resinous material, bringing an unusual freshness to compositions. Not the easyest material to use, needs to be added slowly as it might overwehlm your blend. Add it to Nagarmotha and Boswellia to experience something beautyful….

A new oil for me, but wow, it opened up my entire head when I opened it. It will take me some time to play with this and come up with something delicious, but that I will! Something about it reminds me of tonka bean, perhaps the sweetness. Overall I do believe I will have fun exploring options.

Amazing oil.it reminds me an old famous chewing gum we used to buy 15 years ago..it has this sharp herbaceous smell like menthol green tornato..its excellent for male perfumes and why not use it in a room diffuser to feel that fresh mint like beautiful smell..

The smell of actual absinthe spirit is one of my most favorite scents. While wormwood is not the only ingredient in absinthe, it is of course the most important. This particular wormwood is the best I’ve ever smelled, and I cannot live without it.
To my nose, this is green leather tinged with smoke.
Those of you familiar with Piguet’s Fracas will likely know Bandit. This reminds me of that green leather, only much rounder and much nicer. This pairs well with Frankincense (Serrata especially), anything in the anisic family (well represented in actual Absinthe), and yellow or white florals (adds great contrast).

Very powerful Heart bitter herb essence, rare in its quality and complexity. If I paint this rich balsamic scent in colors, there will be a lot more shades and tints than just fundamental dark, hunters’ tweed green: there will be an ample touch of amber glowy boozy whisky wink, silvery-celadone desert sage tea, bright wild meadow in spring, streaked with chartreuse, teal and purple…
It also beautiful awoke a memory of aura of a real magic place, that now gone forever, not surviving the hardships of the Pandemy –
‘Herboristeria del Rei’ in Bacelona, an authentic antique royal apothecary, with bunches of medicinal herbs decorating wooden cabinets filled with tincutres and extracts, with curious nick-nacks made of pine cones and dried flowers, decorating its counters from another era bygone.
