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 : )

Adam Michael has this to say “Distilled from the seed, carrot seed has a sweet, earthy aroma and is pale yellow in colour. Carrot seed is a good anti- inflammatory, revitalises and tones the skin, used to treat dermatitis, eczema and rashes.
Carrot seed has been used to treat ulcerative conditions of the skin and is a good aid to healthy skin and is said to help control flatulence. It is especially useful in spring months, to undo some of the ravages of the cold winds, over-heated homes and workplaces, and a diet that has perhaps been inadequate in vitamin content during the winter months.”
Botanical Name: Daucus carota
Origin: France

Breathtaking!
Awakes with a swift blast of sharp, dry herbaceous, medicinal green and camphorous cold wet earth, evolving into an intense shoe shop aroma of new leather, tins of shoe polish and leather balms, mingling with fulsome carrot roots stuck with damp earth.
We then enter a sweet-woody, damp earth of carrots; pressing freshly-pulled organic carrots to the nose, all sweet and softly-spiced with mulch, scented with hints of patchouli and vetiver and brazil nut kernels. The aroma is first moist and cool then becoming warmer, as if an earthy carrot-infused soil is being warmed by the sun, until we are bathing fully in organic carrotiness; an oily carroty dry down before bedding down softly into spiced cinnamon-tinged carrots, slumbering under a smooth tonka bean; a calming powdery carrot wrapped around the deep earthy carrot aroma that has stayed the whole way through.
An enchanting experience on its own, but also adds intrigue and magic as a deep earthy note for woody, earthy, green and floral compositions, especially oakmoss and rose.

Take me to your suede-clad leader! This reminds me of the softest green suede jacket that my aunt owned in the sixties. Never have I felt…or smelt suede like this since. Then when that memory is well established the carrot seed takes the role of warm, comforting hillsides giving an odour and a visual of calm, powdery, earthy peace. Huge fan

I bought this for it’s well-known properties.
As one would expect, this Carrot Seed essential oil seems top quality.
I find the aroma very unique, slightly earthy, slightly herby, and yes slightly carroty!

Great unrated note…used in Un Jardin Sur de Nil fom the Master perfumer Jean Claude Ellena.
Carrot seed is an unusual note in perfumery but a beautiful one nonetheless.
Who never try it, please this is a must buy.

One of my lovely understated favorite (because you know your favorites – roses, nerolis or citruses): a properly original maverick in its misleading nature –
coming from the seeds in the airy parasols of Umbelliferae family, smelling in fact like a complex earthy woodsy essence with full evocative powers of a whole ambience impression, of a artisanal workshop somewhere in Far East (or in ‘the game of Thrones’), where presious papers and woods would be crafted into elaborate reliquaries and illuminated maniscripts, wrapped in Patchouli-infused, freshly embossed leather.
This essence opens on my nose with pleasant vibrancy of greens at front and yellow camphor in background; growing into a melody of woods – from freshly crushed leaves to dry archive shelves’, from Nile papirus to alpine pinewoods – through sweet carved woods’ noblesse at centre.
From the heart down comes a fine powdery note of noble roots (on the orris side of musky variety) and then finally comes to surface a fruity carrot root tint, not a full shade, which reminds me in a general impression another seed oddity – exquisite Ambrette, while never ready to admit that it comes form just a common carrot, always staying true to its centaur-like nature – a zesty seed masquarading as a bittersweet noble wood. Generous, strong and mellow at the same time.
Curious fact – Carrot seed essence was a guarded secret behind the success of one of the most prestigious luxury brands of the past in Skin Care industry, claiming for anti-aging properties of its products – rightfully relying on the proven rejuvenating properties of this oil.
