Adam Michael has this to say “Azerbaijani rose otto, what a beauty. Simply sophisticated, powerful, bright, long lasting rich dewy rose profile with a thick lemon honey scented middle and lashings of rose garden flowers freshness throughout. Wonderful staying power, excellent clarity, smooth, crisp, elegant and heavenly. As many know, across these past 5 years in Italy, I have sourced winner after winner on the rose otto front and what we have here is no exception, rivalling Persian Rose Otto Gold as my finest find to date.
What is incredible here is that all this magnificent beauty is from the first distillation only, so no second distillation, no blending and it completely does away with what I thought I knew about the artistry process. I personally find it so hard to believe because the aroma profile is completely bang smack on point, nothing remotely lacking, those watery rose qualities are here galore, and the honey lemon notes are bursting through the seams.
Uses, really you decide. Enjoy this solo or layer with fellow florals, ouds, sandalwoods and so forth, it doesn’t really matter as this is that rose that plays nice with all the widely cherished natural aromatics. And if you are building a rose perfume, just know that this can easily be the star of your show as it really captures and displays the very essence of smelling living roses in late spring on a warm-breezy late morning.
My first ever Azerbaijani produced Rose Otto, hopefully not my last, and if you are a fellow rose-enthusiast I give this rose otto my strongest possible approvals. Masterpiece material.”
Side note: You will find this essential oil/otto, crystallises under temperatures of about 20°C. Rest assured there is nothing wrong with it and it is quite beautiful visually. All you need to do is give your bottle a shake (with cap on) and it will be liquid again very quickly.

Heartfelt thanks to Adam and Eleanor for such beauty and the opportunity to touch it!❤️

These are the kind of materials you want to introduce at tastings.
Listening to the smooth unfolding of the notes is like listening to the silence of a summer garden in the late afternoon.
At first, it sounds rather formal. Low, lingering. Vividly demonstrating its presence. She can be compared to an empress at a ball. She stuns with her velvet and heavy dress.
After 20 minutes, she becomes lighter. The sound itself is higher. She seems to rise into the clouds, taking off her heavy necklaces.
It can be compared to a breeze from the ocean, next to which a garden of roses has blossomed.
It’s the purest.
After 50 minutes, it sounds bitter. Wow! I mean, it’s gone from being so salty-oceanic and austere to my favourite, scalding bitterness.
Hugs!
Anton and Medea

I would call this Rose an Exuberant Dancer – gracefully statuesque and jovially flamboyant, happily extrovert, instantly generous in its aesthetical sway and emotional sensual clout.
It’s a Romanthic Rose of in the hand of ardent admirer, an Effervecent Rose in the hair of Kitri in the ballet ‘Don Quichote’ – a flirtatious youtful ‘Belle’ leaping and bouncing in the moment of unbridled Celebration of the Power of Beauty. A Prima Ballerina of Roses 🙂

I don’t usually leave reviews but this material deserves one. Among the exceptional roses of Hermigageoils, this one takes your breath away. I even prefer it to my 1st grade taif. Lemony and musky, it dries down unexpectedly to a tonka bean on my skin. Simply the best rose I have smelled
