17th April at 2.15pm: Quick update to say all orders placed on the 9th have been collected just now by DHL. Orders placed on the 10th and 11th will all leave by the 19th. I will type again on Friday regarding orders placed from the 12th onwards. Other news, by Friday I am releasing a few more very big ticket rarities including our Italian Oakwood Absolute and a super grail rose otto. Thank you, Adam : )
15th April at 5.30pm: Today I am running behind but I am happy to say that along with all E.U countries, we now can supply to the USA again. USA switched on just now and the Mysore Sandalwood 4 year aged E.O offer is extended for a week for USA clients to enjoy too. By Wednesday 17th all orders from the 9th April will be dispatched with DHL. Although we are rather full-on with orders at the moment, the lead time will improve significantly very shortly. Reason being since reopening the focus has been solely on building stocks up and we have staff coming on as well now (at last!). I will write again on Wednesday regarding lead times. This week my tasks are to get on top of the SDS we are owed by the company we have employed to handle this. And other than this I am adamant I will update the bulk wholesale list with more aromatics. Finally for now - the following 11 aromatics have recently been added to the site - French Rose Geranium E.O, Sandalwood Mysore E.O 4 Year Aged, Tuscan Olive Leaf Absolute, Mitti Attar (Petrichor), Persian Queen of Roses (Otto), Tomato Leaf Absolute, Oud Assami Skank E.O V.1, South Indian 10 Year Aged Vetiver E.O, Bengali Nagarmotha E.O, VIolet Leaf Concrete, Italian Helichrysum Absolute S.G. Thank you, 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.
