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 “Cardamom essential oil within massage is useful for those suffering with nausea, flatulence and diarrhoea, easing the griping pains that often accompany it. Produced by steam distillation of the seeds, yellowish in colour and of a pourable viscosity. The plant has been used in Eastern traditional medicine for over 3,000 years, being mentioned in Vedic medical texts. Via the Middle East cardamom was imported into ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome and the Egyptians used it both in perfumes and incenses.
Both Hippocrates and Dioscorides mention it, the latter describing it as good for sciatica, coughs, spasms, abdominal pains and retention of urine. In India cardamom is used very widely as a digestive aid, both in the form of a spice added to food, and as a medicament. Indian use also confirms some of Dioscorides’ descriptions, particularly for coughs, and as a diuretic. But the most important and widespread use in India is as an aphrodisiac. There is no real evidence that cardamom essential oil has any physiological effect, but it is both tonic and stimulant so may act indirectly. Although there is no evidence that cardamom is a skin irritant, you should exercise caution and always dilute especially well prior to use on anybody with a sensitive skin.”

Beautifully elegant, hits me with slight grassy, woody notes over the remarkable spice main. Makes my men’s fragrances really attractive .
Overall it’s a superior product with superior customer service, thank you so much, Adam

One of my favourite spice materials, works well in traces and even when I overdose the mixes. I like cardamom, so an overpowering smell of it, is fine by me and my nose.
