August 8th: As I type, we are currently rammed with orders to assemble and dispatch. For now, the lead-time estimates in the message below continue to stand. We are working every single day of August and as we will close across September, I need to offload my 2022 season Organic Lemon FCF E.O. We buy a very large weight of this every year and purchased just before we found out that Eleonora was pregnant. The material is properly stored, smells delicious and is now offered at reduced rates on the 250G weight (31.15 Euros before vat - supplied in lacquered aluminium canisters - absolute steal price) – available to everyone. Also, we are close to selling out of our Turkish Rose Signature Absolute now. We sell this for nearly 3 times less than what various so-called American rival operators are charging – for material sourced from the same producer as well. If you use our beautiful Turkish Rose Signature Absolute and need a bottle, enjoy our super low pricing whilst you can. We are also getting very low on Mysore Sandalwood E.O and Jasmine Absolute now. I will write again by Wednesday. Thank you, Adam : )
August 4th: As I type we are receiving a lot more orders than usual and we are very behind with assembling and dispatching orders. All Mainland Europe orders now have a 4-5 working day lead-time. All NON.EU orders now currently have a 7-14 working day lead-time as the courier agent we work with, is currently having days off (holiday time) across the first weeks of August, and hence adding to delays I am afraid. I apologise about any inconvenience caused. I will update again here by Monday evening (8th). Thank you, Adam : )
July 27th: Adam Michael here with an update. Ok, my partner Eleonora is pregnant with our first child. Written because across September Eleonora goes on maternity leave for 5 months and I intend to join her and use the opportunity to have a rest before the baby is born.
The exact date will be confirmed nearer the time but for now just to say if you need anything from Hermitage Oils to please plan ahead because when we close it really will be for 5 months and during that time we will be completely out of contact. Also so that everyone is aware, we will be working for the entire month of August and across August we will be releasing non-compliant oakmoss from a source I worked with for over 15 years. Yes I convinced them to carry out a production just for Hermitage Oils. On top of this I have hit the jackpot and sourced the most stunning Wild Harvested Cedarwood Absolute that money buys. It has an incredibly addictive profile, super sweet, woody, no pissy aspects like that of the e.o and the dry-down is first class all the way. Expect a thorough write-up when this is released. Also I unearthed more of our aged Opoponox e.o from Ethiopia in our storerooms so that is coming back as is Cedarmoss Absolute. As I type we have a lot of work to assemble so please note orders placed now will take until the early or middle of next week to be processed. Thank you, Adam : )

Adam Michael has this to say “Wow what a material, amber warm with sticky sweet medicinal qualities oozing within the top notes. The heart and base notes are lashings and lashings of sultry warm ambery charm and a never ending output of animalic-leathery shoe shop nuances. The longevity, the body, the intensity, the consistency, it is simply breath taking – lasting weeks on the smelling strip and several hours on the skin.
A true masterpiece material, maybe the best natural amber material available. Fantastic material for building amber bases, developing leather, tobacco, fougere, chypre and dry woody accords. Excellent material for enriching frankincense notes, adds interesting effects within citrus accords and blends especially well with sandalwood materials.
This material is obtained by molecular distillation from cistus labdanum extract, orange-yellow in colour and of a pourable viscosity.”
David Ruskin has this to say “Not at all sweet! It is strongly labdanum and reminds me of Dynascone or Animalis. I love it! Possibly some styrax there too. It smells to me of Plasticine (old and all the colours mixed together, like I remember from Junior school). After a while there is a dried fruit note. After that, it stays pretty much the same, and I imagine that it lasts for weeks on a smelling strip. Very nice material.”

One of my favorites. Superlative for leather blends, I’ve used it for a boozy floral blend, cray enough it work very well with violet like notes (Ionones-Irones-Iris…). Can be used in substitution of Castoreum or Birch, though not the same result, it gives an amazing super long lasting animalic effect that is balanced and very peculiar…

Honey amber smell with a bit of medicine..warm apple pie on the table and children waiting around it …my favorite memories as a child in my grandmother’s house..excellent stuff to work with oriental and incensy creations ..so calming effect on my mind

This stuff is out of this world but also a puzzling to use.
Gives me an olfactory trip back to my youth and the barns and stables of nearby farms, this has a horsey, manure, hay note combined with medicinal balmy and unusual Plasticine bitter-sweetness. It’s completely odd but overwhelmingly intoxicating. One of the most interesting resins I’ve ever smelled, but perhaps not for everyone?

I really do adore this material. Amber sweetie to me is an animalic warm and intoxicating blend of benzoin, labdanum and Raspberry absolute all in one. It whisks me back to the dusty hot streets of Chennai.

This is great stuff for building amber based scents together with some labdanum abs, vanilla and African soap myrrh. benzoin, vanilla and woods. Still experimenting with it for sure.

A very useful fraction of Cistus ladaniferus, it is a blessing for anyone who fantasizes of the perfect leather accord. I am very happy to have come across it. It blends so well with Frankincense as well other traditional “leather” oils like rectified Birch. It is tenacious, however, and it will likely outlast even other powerhouse base notes.
Peter (verified owner) –
Gorgeous, more elegant version of labdanum. That slightly bitter note makes it sophisticated and addictive. Very useful and beautiful material.
John (verified owner) –
A fascinating oil. Very warming. Smelling neat, the dominating note I detect is “barnyard”, almost manure-like!
Carlos silva (verified owner) –
A wonderful, deep, rich leather-ish and animalic long lasting smell.Great alone or mixed with other scents in perfume. Goes really well with “woodsy” scents like sandalwood, cedar, and Peru balsam.
Spencer R (verified owner) –
This is a MUST for leather accords. It also works beautifully in rounding out more deep and masculine amber accords. I definitely get resin-leather-sweet amber impressions.
Carrie T (verified owner) –
I am in love! What a rich gift to my soul, calming, heartfelt warmth. I am excited to explore blending with it.
Carlos silva (verified owner) –
This just blow me away …i dont find it to sweet as Labdanum but im enchanted with the animalic-leatherish, what a wonderfull master piece.
Love love love it.

Beautiful deep smoky and sensual amber. Leather with a touch of red fruits and powdery violets. My new favourite 🙂
