8th February Update at 1.40pm: The website has now been tweaked with the message below. Until early May we now supply to European Union countries only. By early May we will be better organised and able to handle a much larger workload per day. Once in place, USA, Hong Kong and United Arab Emirates will be switched back on. I have also updated the FAQ and mention this within that page. On the new product front, within the next 3 weeks, I am releasing Tuscan Green Olive Absolute Signature Gold, this project has been two years in the making, the end result is the most incredible olive absolute you will ever experience - it is light years superior to the Egyptian offering we and others carry. I am also going to release Italian Oakwood absolute, another custom production for Hermitage, plus I'll introduce Violet Leaf Concrete, and at least one of my 5 new Persian Rose Ottos for sale. If time allows I am going to release a wonderful Mitti Attar and two new Nagarmotha offerings as I want to put together a collection for Nagarmotha to showcase the vast differences in profile you can obtain. And finally I am definitely going to ramp up the wholesale list even further by introducing many more of our existing aromatics this month with wholesale options. Thank you and I will write again now here across early next week. Adam : )

Adam Michael has this to say “Birch sweet essential oil is commonly used to relieve pain and excels at treating sore muscles, sprains and painful joints due to the anti-inflammatory and antispasmodic properties. Methyl salicylate works by passing through the skin and entering the tissues where it inhibits the formation of prostaglandins, thereby reducing inflammation and pain very quickly.
Birch sweet has a similar natural chemistry to wintergreen. The main constituent is methyl salicylate and this is a superb pain reliever with a pleasant aroma. Handle with care and dilute down very well before massage. The aroma is fresh, slightly sweet with a iced mint nuance. This birch sweet essential oil is steam distilled from the bark of the tree. Clear to light yellow in colour and of a pourable viscosity.”

What a powerful scent! As mentioned in the description, I found this useful for pain relief, and instantly reminded me of the deep heat cream.

I do massage regularly, and have previously used a gaultery (wintergreen) for massage blends. My masseur recommended replacing it with sweet birch oil, which is similar in properties but has a nicer aroma. Although in general the aroma of both oils is distinctly medicinal, rather pungent, I liked the smell of birch oil more, and the effect of 1.5% oil in the massage oil was impressive. Sweet birch oil perfectly relieves muscle pain and spasms, massage gives a feeling of warmth and relief in the back. I also use birch oil to rub my knee joints.
