23rd April at 4.10pm: Unfortunately, regarding the message below and lead-times, I called it wrong. My apologies. As such all orders placed upto the 15th - and about half of those placed on the 16th, will leave by Friday 26th. On Thursday no collections are possible by couriers as it's a national holiday here in Italy. On the subject of SDS, the company handling this for us, has written to me today, acknowledged more are owed to us (submitted in December and January) and that they are now working on producing the final lot of SDS for us. This includes Plantation, Wild and Jungle ouds that many of you ask about. Next, I have spent the past year (literally) sampling ambrette seed e.o and absolutes from various producers and resellers to no avail. They all smell really poor compared to what I carried. They are too nutty, too fatty, too vegetative, too lacklustre, falling away very fast, and really dont showcase the musky textured qualities of a top ambrette properly. Even the big naturals brands are all obtaining and selling sucky poor man's ambrette at the moment. Written as I have decided to move over to carrying ambrette CO2 and this will be in place until I can find a wow absolute and E.O again. CO2 is still not on par with what I had, but it offers a far better profile on the musky front than the abs and e.os in the market place right now. This CO2 will be in stock by early May. Next, we will put all the non.eu destinations we can supply to, back on our website on May 6th - so U.A.E, UK, Switzerland, Saudi Arabia, Singapore and Australia. On the new product front, the next batch of 10 superstars will be released on the 20th May - lots more roses planned. And I will get started on expanding the bulk wholesale side of the business very soon - more aromatics and offered in larger weights as standard - likely upto a kilo on the website. Ok I will write again by Monday. Thank you, Adam : )
19th April at 5pm: Quick update to first say I have now added the following big ticket aromatics to the website: Italian Oakwood Absolute, Organic Georgian Rose Raduga Otto and finally Persian P.E.A Intense Rose (Otto). Orders, as I type with exception to 3 orders, every order placed up until the 11th has left with the couriers. By Monday 22nd, all orders placed up until the 14th will leave with couriers and I will type again across Monday with another update. Bulk Wholesale orders that still need to be manually typed and billed will be done so by Tuesday 23rd. 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 : )

Joseph Colbourne has this to say “Carbon dioxide extracted from anhydrous milk fat, this Butter CO2 from the UK gives me the urge to grab a tub of popcorn and settle into a movie. Deliciously rich, salty, with notes of cheese that could easily play off contrasting notes in a blend for unique effects. A velvety sweet, creamy sheen develops in the drydown, with the base lingering on the strip for several hours. It’s lactonic, fixative quality makes it useful in giving creamy character to white florals, fruits, sandalwood or as a means of extending coconut or massoia bark. Light florals can be given more depth through its use. Furthermore, it can provide just the right ‘body’ for gourmand blends, adding dimension to caramel and vanilla notes”
This is quite a novelty material, serving no purpose therapeutically. May find use amongst perfumers and other creative soles.

Butter CO2 is one of those things in life you buy with the mantra “heh, why not?”. I’m the kind of person that often orders the strangest dish anywhere I go just to let life surprise me, making an investment in knowledge rather than certain pleasure. Good thing, then, that this is an amazing offering and highly recommended to anyone who loves tweaking things bit by bit.
Greasy, salty, milky, it is all you expect from butter, but not just that. I’ve already used it to turn a rather bland Sandalwood into a Mysore-like powerhouse (highly diluted and with a bit of Coconut CO2), for example. Mixing it with Coffee (mind you!), I was able to create a cozy aura that is hard to explain, but very familiar and loved to us, Brazilians.
Even if some courses had led me to catastrophe (Butter and Geranium, what the heck was I thinking?), this is one of the funniest materials to work with in my collection.

On its own it’s like butterscotch creamy buttery salty, I am having a hard time to figure out how to use this one combined with other materials. Used it a while ago with coffee CO2 alc soluble and cacao colorless and some basenotes. It turned out foul smelling and I am scared to work with it again. I figure it needs to be diluted…same goes for the coffee and cocoa I suppose.

Its a wonderful smell of salty butter material that blends well with cocoa ,vanilla and coffee absolute to create a creamy luxurious blend..

Butter CO2 is a very strongly Ghee-scented aroma that gives a beautiful milky-buttery aroma to a blend in minute amounts. And emphasis on the minute is given, as it can easily overpower a perfume.

A very natural, true to life salty butter smell that if blended with the right materials, will add that little bit of something special thats often hard to find.

This is my 2nd attempt at trying to work with butter co2, I gave up last time as it seemed greasy, rancid and overpowering, a bit like ghee can come across until you know it better. Now I get it! Minute quantities to enhance, smooth anchor and creamify other things… I even added a little to a popcorn tincture I’d made just for fun!

Great discovery, I have been looking for something like this a long time. I like gourmand notes and I even used some synthetic butter but this one is completelly natural and lovely. I don’t use it only for gourmand perfumes but for softening and modifying other kinds of non-gourmand notes. It’s quite one dimensional, which is a practical thing to work with like if you had a solid colour on your perfume palette. If you want real butter, you will get exactly what you want!

Intense, sharply lactonic and animalistic to my nose too. Unique material but I found it hard to combine it, to harmonise it. Yet, as I am writing this, I managed to in an obviously strong and fully gourmand composition, so I am kind of proud of myself that I managed to include it 😀

If anyone has ever been in a Hare Krishna kitchen there is often a subtle sweet and pure aroma. Myself, I had wondered what is the secret of that mystical smell. This is that smell in the bottle. It was a question in my mind in fact, and when I started using the oil- I felt like the multiverse was answering a question that literally popped up in my head. It is different when one smells it out of the bottle and when one wears it after a few minutes. It sort of mellows out. For me I also find great success using this oil for skin. I have also mixed the butter co2 into some of my blends with good result.

Salty, buttery, creamy…this CO2 extract will add a layer of buttery goodness wherever it is used. Useful in gourmand compositions, or to give a buttery edge to certain resins like sandalwood, this versatile substance might be a bit puzzling at first. But it is more useful and versatile than you might initally expect…just go easy and be patient with the learning process on this one…a little goes a long way. I find this to be one of those “Just a Pinch” materials, like Honey Provence or fenchyl alcohol, so dilution strength is key here.
