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 “The aroma of Ionone Beta in the opening is full of parma violet candy nuances and this leads onto a heart of chalky, dry woody, cold sweet floral and fruity character. The base notes are again parma violet candies, orris floral, dry cedar woody, powdery, with somewhat foody nuances and a very pleasant play-doh vanilla sweet character.
The aroma lasts for just under 100 hours on my smelling strip, clear in colour, of a pourable viscosity and as for uses Ionone beta is a must for orris accords, floral bouquets, pairs very well with rose, orange blossom and violet leaf materials, provides increased substantivity when used within citrus and woody accords and is a great study material.”

I can not get enough of smelling this one. To me it seems it would pair well with anything – did not try, though – I am afraid I’d run out of it 😀 It lasts for days, too. Such a relaxing, powdery freshness this is! Quite unoffensive, it fleets out of and back into senses and gives time to really, REALLY miss it. And when you think it’s gone, it surprises you with its beautiful not-too-sweet freshness embracing a darkish, slightly bitter and woody character at it’s centre. A must smell, for sure. Addictive. And comes from litsea cubeba, can not believe it 🙂

Great stuff that indeed pairs well with florals and citruses, woods.. a little goes a long way so beware. It’ll really give your perfume formula an extra boost.

Lovely and soft when used sparingly and blended with other fixatives giving everything that powdery ‘sweet but not sweet’ drydown with a sense of false fleetingness as someone else suggested. Very clever the way it does it as it makes you crave more and it just keeps giving. I used this in a chypre type formula and it gave it that very classic feminine note I was after, rounding out everything else too.

MUCH better than the synthetic stuff, more diffusive, more powerful, more natural (of course!). Love it in almost every floral composition.

Although at its first try i feld this ionone beta a little” oily” after i used it in a composition properly i realized its great work..notes of violets,powdery aspects and great orris qualities..sure ill it buy again!!

What a beautiful, well rounded Beta ionone! It’s sweet and earthy violets, softly green. Must stock up on this one.

Coming from the ‘purist’ all-Nature synergy perspective, I am very picky and weary about isolates, with exceptions for rarified, ‘impossible’ scents. This is the most wonderful exception, to the point of changing my opinion that a single molecule can smell complex enough to evoke emotions – in this case addictively Delightful: I happily have overdosed it right with the first use in a masculine sensual Fougere I’m currently working on.
Upon more detailed observation, the impression of the scent comes rather as a part of a refined mature Iris root than of a flower, with a pungent earthy weight even in its supporting green tone. Great sillage, and very tenacious in drydown.
