10th June 2021 – PLEASE READ CAREFULLY: We are still on course to reopen our newly structured business inside the next 10 working days. Until then, all countries have been removed from the website to prevent any orders from being placed.
We have an insane amount of NEW big ticket aromatic releases scheduled as well. As I type I confirm we are going to re-open with a NEW and EXCLUSIVE non IFRA-compliant Oakmoss Absolute Signature. All the content has been written, I just need to address the photography and that material will be good to launch.
We also will release Sandalwood India Gold CO2 2.0 as well upon reopening. Again, I have addressed the product content and just need to put in place photography that does this material the justice it deserves. This material is a mega limited batch, same quantity on hand as the original India Gold, so substantially less material than that of 1936 E.O which sold out in less than 10 hours. Wholesale packs will be available as well.
Next, Genet Absolute, we now offer Artisan product exclusive to Hermitage
Oils. As such I have re-written the Genet Absolute material today and as we are talking about a superior profile, this material is now sold as Genet Absolute Signature.
Ok, thank you to everyone who continues to support our business and I hope to see you soon. Adam : )

Adam Michael has this to say “The aroma is very unique opening with a bitter vegetative note (cynaropicrin) that resembles the artichoke leaf perfectly. As the aroma develops I detect meaty, earthy, rich, warm and slightly sweet vegetative notes and all of very good tenacity. Artichoke absolute is a rather interesting Egyptian material that I have obtained with the perfumer in mind and that will be of particular use to those creating a culinary perfume. This material is dark orange in colour, of pourable viscosity and obtained from the leaves of the plant by solvent extraction.”

Artichoke is a compelling absolute as once sniffed, one wants to go back and sniff again and again. For me, it encapsulates the exotic fruit and veg markets of abroad with a familiar nuance of cycling through the British countryside and smelling the melange of vegetables growing in the fields..
There is no bitter note to the nose, as I may have expected. Instead, warmth and succulent notes prevail.
In a blend, we have found it to be a beautiful base, an enriching addition and/or a welcome mystery to a citrus/floral.
